Unfortunately, I did not come away from it with a better sense of how to help this student population.

Sensorimotor Psychotherapy: Interventions for Trauma & Attachment
Many of my clients ask questions during the first session like “Why is my body so tight?” or “Why can’t I sleep at night?” People want to know why their bodies react to psychological stressors such as frustration, trauma, rejection, fear, and anxiety — why all of our bodies seem programmed to respond to these as well as environmental cues, facial expressions, attitudes, and other stimuli.
Pat Ogden, founder and director of the Sensorimotor Psychotherapy Institute, and Janina Fisher, a clinical psychologist specializing in trauma, synthesize psychological and medical models to explain why we physically re...

Inside My Manic Mind
I often think people misconceptualize bipolar disorder. They hear it and think of a person who is kind and gentle, and then, out of the blue, they turn into The Hulk; almost a Dr. Jekyll / Mr. Hyde scenario.
