Mothers, Daughters and Families: Tracing the Legacy of the Female Lineage

Professional Training
 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. May 17, 2019 in Lancaster, Pa.
What we have in common is the mother. Unsurprisingly, this unique relationship influences our lives for generations -- although not always as we think.  What happens in utero has significant impact not only for the children born to that woman but often to successive generations -- as well as grandmothers, unborn children and family and cultural trauma.

Karen Carnabucci, LCSW, TEP, will lead “Mothers, Daughters and Families: Tracing the Legacy of the Female Lineage,” a professional training that will focus the multiple generations of women from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Friday, May 17, at Liberty Place, 313 W. Liberty St., Lancaster, Pa.

This training will focus on the use of action methods, including psychodrama, Family Constellations, guided imagery and the creative arts, to address the relationship between mothers and children and what gets in the way of the mother’s natural love for her child. The workshop will consist of didactic teaching, questions, demonstrations and opportunities to bring clinical case studies forward for supervision.
 
You will learn:

  • Warming up the client to address mother relationship in a positive and useful way.
  • The role of a mother in a child’s life.
  • How a mother’s circumstances at the time of giving birth can interfere with her natural outpouring of love for her child.
  • The impact of adoption, vanishing twins, miscarriage and abortion within a family system.
  • How the trauma of a previous generation can impact a child.
  • How to integrate psychodramatic and sociometric concepts in your work, along with concepts of Family and Systemic Constellations.

You will also have the option to address personal issues in a confidential setting. You may bring your lunch or plan to go out for a 45-minute lunch.
