Rescue and Integration of Different “Selves” in Children

Regression therapy allows us to make a deep trip inside of ourselves, revealing the scenario of our different “selves” to our consciousness. With resources for therapeutic procedures which induce regression, children can evoke “selves” from supposed past lives, ancestors’ images, dissociated elements of the psyche (parts of the soul or spiritual presences), and elements from Shadow (as in C. G. Jung).

Offering a voice to each “inner self”, we can access the history behind a symptom, an emotion or thought, or a limiting behavior. Working symbolically the unfinished issue of the character (one of the “inner selves”), we can rescue and integrate a psyche element, consequently leading to a deep transformation inside the child, which will have effects in the transformation of the symptom and in the wellness.

In this workshop we will talk about a body of techniques which help in the exploration of the different “inner selves” from the subjective child scenario. We will also talk about procedures for rescuing, reconnecting and integrating these dissociated psyche elements. Besides theoretical enrichment with cases presentations, we will also have experiential group activities, accessing the inner children and using some techniques to access the “inner selves”.
