Seeking Depth to Recovery

07/30/2026

☕️It’s ok to outgrow the 12 Steps

What got you sober might not feel as fulfilling in later recovery. That’s because sobriety is developmental. The acute treatment is prescribed during the acute recovery process.

🪷Relational trauma + long-term recovery

Long-term recovery poses more nuanced issues, requiring more nuanced solutions. Relational trauma echoes out in subtle, but pervasive, ways. Personal inventories name character defects, but miss deeper relational patterns.

You are more than your “character defects”. You are a complex individual with an internal map to seek relational safety in an outdated landscape.

Self-Triangulation explores the developmental tasks after the 12 steps have been internalized.

This training introduces Self-Triangulation Theory, a role-based clinical framework for understanding the impact of attachment experiences, chronic stress, and resilience-building experiences on personality development and functioning. Participants will learn how internalized roles influence emotional regulation, interpersonal relationships, self-concept, and behavioral responses to stress.

Drawing from role theory, attachment theory, structural dissociation, interpersonal neurobiology, and contemporary trauma treatment approaches, Self-Triangulation Theory provides clinicians with a practical framework for conceptualizing client presentations and identifying pathways toward greater integration and adaptive functioning.

Participants will also learn experiential and action-oriented interventions derived from psychodramatic practice that can be incorporated into clinical social work treatment. Techniques such as role reversal, doubling, empty-chair dialogue, and role externalization will be presented as methods for increasing client insight, enhancing emotional processing, strengthening adaptive coping capacities, and facilitating corrective relational experiences.

Through didactic instruction, clinical examples, demonstration, and structured experiential exercises, participants will develop practical skills for assessing internal role systems, identifying patterns associated with stress and resilience, and utilizing role-based interventions to support treatment goals with individuals affected by trauma, attachment disruptions, and relational difficulties.

This training is designed for social workers seeking to expand their clinical conceptualization skills and integrate experiential interventions into evidence-informed trauma treatment.

Upon completion of this training, participants will be able to:

Describe the core principles of Self-Triangulation Theory and its application to clinical social work practice.

Identify the developmental tasks associated with the Attachment Triangle and explain their relevance to trauma-informed assessment and treatment planning.

Differentiate between Stress Roles and Resilience Roles and recognize their presentation in clinical case material.

Describe the relationship between role development, attachment processes, emotional regulation, and autonomic nervous system functioning.

Demonstrate the use of at least three psychodramatic action methods, including role reversal, doubling, and concretization, within a trauma-informed clinical context.

Apply role-based assessment and intervention strategies to support client insight, emotional processing, and adaptive functioning.

Develop a treatment conceptualization utilizing Self-Triangulation Theory to identify targets for strengthening resilience and reducing maladaptive stress responses.

Are you a therapist looking for 7 CEUs this month?

Integrating the Fragmented Self

Friday, August 7, 9:00-5:00 pm

We will explore my own model of role theory, Self-Triangulation™️, that I’ve been using with clients for the past 5 years. It integrates IFS, attachment theory, structural dissociation theory, and the trauma survivor’s internal role atom.

We will learn, see a demo, and practice psychodramatic action methods, including empty chair, role reversal, concentration, and doubling.

All these skills can bring great depth to individual, family, and group therapy.

Registration closes 7/31. We have 5 spots remaining.

Therapy isn’t just about fancy techniques, like EMDR or somatic therapy tools. It’s about how those techniques leverage our ability to attune, assess, and respond to the human being in front of us.

If you’re looking for EMDR or somatic trauma therapy in Richmond, VA, then work with a provider who understands and is skilled at relational work.

One of our group supervisions in June involved making Wrap Dolls.

Led by Dana Roebuck, we had the opportunity to explore challenging relationships through the process of art making.

From the fabric we chose, to the instructions we accidentally didn’t follow, our personal feelings and stuck points became increasingly visible throughout the process.

Being in a group of therapists, we all got to share our analytical thoughts of each doll, and it’s amazing how spot on we were.

Experiential therapy that is rooted in the relationship is about focusing on each decision we make in real time - identifying reenactments and projections as they unfold.

The process of booking the first session can illuminate fears of change, trust, and feelings of worthiness
How one enters the therapy room can highlight patterns of avoidance, appeasement, or mistrust
How aware one is of the therapist sharing the room with them can shine a light on attachment dynamics

Exploring process is far more impactful than only sharing a trauma narrative - because the trauma narrative gets projected onto the relationship and becomes the map to explore what’s still stuck inside.
