In this interactive session, Dr Nicole Schnackenberg explores the regulation of the autonomic nervous system as it relates both to Polyvagal Theory and the Window of Tolerance model.

She considers, and provides experience of, ways of building interoceptive awareness and an embodied understanding of sympathetic hyperarousal and parasympathetic hypoarousal.

She also looks at ways of helping our clients to expand their window of tolerance; alongside increasing their capacity to move through experiences of both depression and anxiety.

The session includes a number of helpful exercises for use with both adult and young people clients.

This recorded workshop can be watched as a standalone, or alongside Dr Schnackenberg’s recorded workshop on Considering the Sensory System, including Sensory System Profiling, in the Therapy Room, also available via Brighton Therapy Partnership and Therapy Education Online.
