Description:
Catholic anthropology asserts the inherent goodness of humanity it its original creation. According to this faith tradition, having broken relationship with God and each other, humanity took on the burden of shame. In both the spiritual and psychological domains, shame warrants our attention in order to restore health and wholeness. This webinar explores the importance of addressing shame in the treatment plan for patients working through trauma and addiction recovery. Research indicates the importance of addressing issues of shame which have become an identity of shame in order to establish healing and recovery. Shame taken on through trauma continues to fuel addiction and relapse as well as the replication of maladaptive interpersonal and intrapsychic dynamics. Patients who cannot recall their life history without becoming lost in the feeling and identity of shame have poorer outcomes for recovery. Unprocessed shame is associated with a poor prognosis. Unburdening the shame within through narrative reconstruction, and Internal Family Systems work leads to better patient outcomes.
