"Transgenerational Narratives in Parental Alienation: Understanding Language and Metaphors with Alienated Children"
On Sunday, August 4, 2019 at 8 PM EDT, Karen Woodall will be our guest speaker for our international seminar call.
This call will examine trans-generational elements of parental alienation and the ways in which a new, adapted form of therapy, can provide much needed recovery for families affected by parental alienation.
Drawing upon her clinical work with families, Karen will provide case examples and unpack the meaning of children’s rejection in the post separation landscape and the way in which this is often a response to a trauma which has lain hidden in the family until the crisis of family separation awakens it.
Providing useful tools for immediate use with alienated children, Karen will examine the language and metaphors used by the alienated child to enable greater understanding and bring immediate potential for intervention.
Using the counter intuitive approach which is recognized as necessary in these cases, Karen will demonstrate the ways in which parents and practitioners can meet alienated children in the space that they inhabit in ways that benefit them most.
Listeners will learn
- The path to understanding the trans-generational narratives in parental alienation
- The language of the alienated child
- The metaphors which are used repeatedly by alienated children and their meaning
- Ways of communicating with an alienated child
- The division of the alienated child into different ‘parts’ of the self
- How to find the authentic part of the child in conversation
- How to understand the story of your child’s descent into alienation
- The keys to understanding your own role in the alienation, how you were used and your vulnerabilities utilised and how to change that dynamic for the better.
Karen is committed to experiential learning which creates dynamic change through education, reflection and sharing of new perspectives. This is a call which will deepen your self awareness, increase your understanding of your child and the ways in which you can effect change over the short, mid and longer term. If you want to become the transitional character in your child’s family narrative and grow in confidence so that you can change the future for your child, you will want to be on this call.
Karen Woodall is a psychotherapist with over twenty years experience in working with parents and children affected by family separation. She is also an author and blogger and regularly writes for the Huffington Post on issues that affect the family.
