Learning Objectives

Participants will be able to:

  • Explain how timelines provide a context and help to identify the developmental progression of trauma.

  • Identify where traumas may have clustered in life or where there was little to no trauma.

  • Identify, describe, and compare Attachment Trauma Timelines and Resilience Timelines.

  • Identify reenactment patterns that may have their origin in early relational trauma.

  • Describe how to use timelines in individual and group sessions.

Description

Timelines help clients place experiences they may have pushed out of consciousness into the overall framework of their lives and identify reenactment patterns and attachment/developmental issues. They allow clients to gain a sense of the who, what, when and where involved in attachment trauma. Timelines can be used as a worksheet and springboard for sharing or an embodied role play in which a client can talk to themselves or significant relationships as well at any point along their developmental continuum.

 

Two-chair roleplays allow clients to embody and talk to parts of themselves or others who are part of the development, from their relational network.  Role reversal gives clients a visceral experience of standing in the shoes of the “other” or parts of themselves, building empathy, insight, flexibility and strength. Because psychodrama and sociometry are so vast in their potential applications, therapists can feel ill-equipped to use them.

 

The Attachment Timeline, The Trauma Timeline and The Resilience Timeline are paper and pencil activities that can be complete processes in individual or group work. They can also be moved into a group process and/or role plays. They can be adapted easily to virtual therapy.
