<br>Hello Everyone<div><br></div><div>Adam reminded me I had promised to send the TSM Handouts on the Six Safety Structures I use to start TSM workshops and groups. Here it is. Hope it is helpful. One of them is the action sociometry that was under discussion a month or so back. In TSM language we call it "Hands on Shoulder" and it's clinical purposes are two-fold. One is for people to feel connected to others in the group around their traumas as most trauma survivors feel that they are alone in what happened to them. The second is for people to be able to put narrative labels to their traumas and talk about them BEFORE we put them into action. If they cant say them, I dont believe they are safe enough to be able to put them into action. It is a time for the director and our action trauma teams to be able to access people for safety before we ask them to put them into action. </div><div><br></div><div>Enjoy.
