(8) Neuroscience and Thriving - Maggi McAllister-MacGregor

Foundation Certificate in The Application of The Polyvagal Theory in Counselling & Psychotherapy Workshop Series

Neuroscience and Thriving

This is the eight part of an eight-part workshop series.

In the last of this series of workshops on the neuroscience of regulation we will explore how having an integrated and regulated nervous system allows us to live life to the full – to thrive rather than just survive. We will look at the connection between dysregulation within the nervous system and the impact on health and wellbeing.

Maggi McAllister-MacGregor

Maggi McAllister-MacGregor has been a practicing Counsellor/Psychotherapist for 20 years and works from a body-based perspective mainly with trauma, anxiety and stress.

Her work is grounded in the Polyvagal Theory which has allowed her to develop her work to encompass both the body and the psyche, and this allows her to integrate her previous work as a body therapist into her current work with clients.

Maggi is also a professional dog trainer where she has applied her understanding of the Polyvagal Theory in dog training to understand dog’s behaviour and help owners understand what is happening in the relationship with their dogs.
