SUMMARY:🆕BRAND-NEW! Tarot Card Imagery and Parts Work: Creative Interventions for Psychotherapy 🆕
DESCRIPTION:🆕Brand-New!🆕\nTarot Card Imagery and Parts Work: Creative Interventions for Psychotherapy\nPresented by: Dreya Blume\, LCSW\nWhen: Wednesday\, November 4th\, 2026 | 9:00 am – 12:00 pm Pacific Time\nWhere: Live on Zoom. You will receive your Zoom link/invitation the week of the workshop.\nContinuing Education Credit Hours (NBCC and NASW-WA Approved): 3 CEs | $90.00\nContinuing Education Workshop Description:\nParts work offers clinicians a powerful framework for helping clients understand the different internal states\, roles\, and protective strategies that shape their emotional lives. Tarot cards\, with their rich visual imagery\, archetypal themes\, characters\, and symbolic landscapes\, can provide a creative way to make these internal experiences more visible and accessible. Rather than using tarot for prediction or divination\, therapists can invite clients to engage with the cards as projective and expressive images through which they can identify\, externalize\, and develop greater curiosity toward different parts of themselves. \nThis experiential continuing education workshop introduces practical ways to integrate tarot card imagery into parts-oriented psychotherapy. Participants will explore interventions for identifying and representing parts\, understanding the intentions and fears of protective parts\, facilitating dialogue between conflicting parts\, accessing internal resources\, and supporting greater cooperation and integration within the client’s internal system. Attention will also be given to trauma-informed pacing\, client autonomy\, cultural and spiritual sensitivity\, and ethical considerations when incorporating tarot imagery into clinical practice. \nNo previous experience with tarot or parts work is required. \nContinuing Education Workshop Objectives:\nUpon completion of this training\, participants will be able to: \n\nDescribe at least three ways tarot card imagery can facilitate the identification\, externalization\, and exploration of parts within psychotherapy.\nApply at least three tarot-based interventions for exploring protective roles\, internal conflicts\, unmet needs\, and internal resources within a parts-work framework.\nIdentify at least three clinical and ethical considerations for integrating tarot card imagery into parts-oriented psychotherapy\, including client consent\, cultural and spiritual sensitivity\, and trauma-informed pacing.\n\nREGISTER HERE\n  \n  \n

Masking has a profound effect on the development of “self” and the understanding of relationships\, leading to misunderstandings and confusion in all relational settings. Add in the nuances of differing sensory needs and ways of attending to stimuli\, plus experiences of rejection sensitivity and demand avoidance\, and the challenges pile up quickly. And we haven’t even talked about relational trauma yet! \nWhether people share the same neurotype or not\, the impact of neurodivergence is complex and layered. Using a multidisciplinary approach\, this workshop is taught by two clinicians with a variety of expertise and experience and will explore how Autism and ADHD affect intra and interpersonal relationships\, from platonic to romantic/sexual and everything in-between. \nContinuing Education Workshop Objectives\nAfter this continuing education workshop\, attendees will be able to: \n\nDefine at least 3 ways the medical model of Autism and ADHD leads to biases in healthcare providers/clinicians\nDescribe at least 2 ways that Autistic and ADHD traits and experiences can impact romantic/sexual relationships\nExplain the relational effects of the Double Empathy Problem\, Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria\, and Pathological Demand Avoidance\nIdentify how monotropism influences Au/DHD communication and relational patterns\nIdentify how missing key experiences like monotropism\, RSD\, and PDA can contribute to relational harm in therapy\nDescribe how differing sensory profiles can impact all types of relationships where people share space\nApply sensory-informed and interoceptive frameworks to enhance safety and connection\nImplement tools to offer sensory mapping profiles for relational systems\nIdentify/understand common polarities in neurodivergent couples that impact connection\nIdentify how Au/DHD traits influence relational pacing and attachment\nDifferentiate codependence from interdependence within neurodiverse couples\nIntegrate neurodiversity-affirming approaches and the Polarities to Parallels Model to support accountability\, repair\, and mutual regulation\n\nREGISTER HERE\n  \n  \n
