The workshop will describe the method and process of the deep therapeutic relaxation therapy of Autogenic Training: effective self-generating resourcing during treatment for PTSD.

The workshop will describe how AT fits into the AIP model and Ruth will be joined by a former client who will speak of their experience of EMDR and specifically of AT used as adjunct therapy during treatment for PTSD.

Ruth Sewell is a registered Autogenic Training therapist and is collating data on her use of AT as an adjunct therapy to EMDR. She will outline her experience of teaching AT to clients. She is currently collating data to show its effectiveness in reducing symptoms of PTSD and its effectiveness in resourcing clients prior to or following EMDR and treatment for PTSD.
