Virtual Training Series

Virtual Training Series

Trauma work is about finding creative opportunities in the midst of crisis. This time of pandemic offers us a chance to widen the reach of Kint trainings and to offer a taste of what participating in our face-to-face post-masters certificate program in the arts and trauma treatment has to offer.

2021

June

From the Mind, to the Heart, to the Hand: Exploring the Pathway of Psychotherapeutic Artistic Expression

DATE: June 12, 1:30-3:30 PM EST

PRESENTED BY: Ani Buk, MFA, MA, ATR-BC, LP, LCAT

COST: $50 ($25 for Kint graduates)

All registrations are non-refundable.

2 CEs are available for purchase through R. Cassidy Seminars. Information will be sent to participants after the workshop.

The human experience is intrinsically embodied and, paradoxically, fundamentally metaphorical. Creative expression, in all of its varied forms and permutations, is our birthright. This workshop will explore how data from the fields of embryology and neuroscience can inform our understanding of how and why implicitly registered feelings, thoughts and memories that can’t be easily verbalized can so often be symbolically expressed through the process of making art. Clinical illustrations and experiential activities will help participants gain a more multidimensional, nuanced and embodied confidence in the power of the art making process, thereby increasing the clinical efficacy of their art-based therapeutic interventions.

Ani Buk, MFA, MA, ATR-BC, LP, LCAT, is a licensed art therapist and psychoanalyst in private practice in Manhattan, where she works with children, adolescents, adults and couples. She is a graduate of the MFA program of the Yale School of Art; the Graduate Art Therapy Program of New York University, where she has been on the faculty since 1993; The Institute for Child, Adolescent and Family Studies; and the Psychoanalytic Training Institute of the Contemporary Freudian Society, where she is on the Permanent Faculty and a Training and Supervising Analyst. A nationally recognized trauma specialist with 30 years of clinical experience, Ani’s work and recommendations have been featured in newspapers and periodicals such as The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, US News & World Report, The Chicago Tribune, and Scholastic News. She is the Clinical Advisor to Lalela, a non-profit that provides educational arts for at-risk youth in Africa and the US.

Course Objectives:

  • Explain how Buk’s imagined “pathway of psychotherapeutic artistic expression” is based on embryological data that connects the brain to the heart and the heart to the hands
  • Identify 3 ways that a basic understanding of the functions of several neural networks (Mirror Neuron System, Default Mode Network, Salience Network and Central Executive Network), along with the process of embodied simulation, can inform and enhance clinical interventions with art materials and/or visualization techniques
  • Describe 2 ways that clinicians can use playful, creative arts-based techniques to access their own embodied and implicitly registered understanding of their patients’ embodied and implicitly experienced inner worlds
