Rachel Walker is such a gift to the healing community. I just went to her training in Denver and it was amazing. She has a fun sense of humor and is very warm. If you get a chance to take her trainings it will be well worth your time.
You are describing polyvagal theory. It's amazing how ask these modalities are now coalescing into the poly vagal and IFS contextual understanding of human body soul and spirit reality! I love how you use stages in the work, I agree, that is important. Most of my highly traumatized clients aren't ready to go right into parts work off the bat.
This has been really helpful with trying to formulate and explain therapy goals I have to my own therapist. She's trauma informed but isn't well versed with this perspective.
when i dissociate i feel like two sides of me are fighting the angery logical side that denys the trauma and the traumatized which usually leads to self mutilation. would this be what structual dissociation feels like, because i have been trying to find a name for years. its not DID thought its not atlers just two sides of me

She is very smart and understands disassociation.
She does!
Dissociation.* No "ass" in there.

I've been using Parts Work for about a year now. It's truly so helpful and I'm so glad to see more trainings are being done. Thank you!
This was great - very helpful and also helpful to ask the recommended training and books for further learning.
This is so good!!

Cognitive dissonance is the word you're looking for
Where do we get this chart?
I do have a locked jaw sometimes lol.
This didn't actually make sense for use with DID. It utterly denies what DID is she instead talks around it.
IFS is NOT recommended for DID.
