April 23-24, 2010 - DDS/Trauma Training
This intensive weekend workshop will teach participants how to
administer and rate The Diagnostic Drawing Series
(DDS) for adolescents and adults. It features a survey of 25 years of
research findings, with an emphasis on their
usefulness to the practicing clinician. The faculty will introduce a
structure-based, tri-level approach to the image
that enables participants to integrate research data with other
information about the client's pictures and art making
process. A method of DDS report-writing for clinical settings will also
be taught. WHO SHOULD ATTEND? This workshop is appropriate for clinicians and graduate level students with little or no previous knowledge of this tool, as well as those who use the DDS in their daily work. Participants will have opportunities for skill-building and to consolidate what they have learned in the didactic sessions through group rating experientials focusing on their client DDSs in terms of structural and other criteria. Participants' learning experience will be greatly enhanced by bringing more than one correctly collected DDS from a client (age 13 and older; not a friend or relative) to be worked with by the group throughout the weekend. Barry M. Cohen is a registered and board certified art therapist and the primary creator of the Diagnostic Drawing Series. He co-edited first person accounts of dissociative disorder in Multiple Personality Disorder from the Inside Out, for which he received a Distinguished Service Award from the International Society for the Study of Multiple Personality & Dissociation. He is also co-author of Telling Without Talking: Art as a Window in the World of Multiple Personality and Managing Traumatic Stress through Art, and has authored numerous articles and book chapters on art in psychiatry. He is a frequent lecturer on art therapy at universities and conferences in the US and abroad. Anne Mills, a graduate in art therapy from Concordia University, is the former chair of the Research Committee of the American Art Therapy Association. She has published extensively on assessments, and the treatment of severe trauma and dissociative disorders. Anne has taught classes and workshops at a number of universities in the US, Canada, and abroad, and is former director of George Washington University's Art Therapy Program. Anne is a registered and board certified art therapist and a licensed professional counselor. She has a private practice in Washington, DC. ...Back to top
