The brain is programmed to respond protectively in times of perceived threat. However, situations can be labeled as threatening in moments when we could more benefit more from thoughtfulness than automatically defensive responsiveness. Understanding our minds and how they respond to strong emotions is vital to learning how to shape our responses. This workshop will address this phenomenon and discuss mindful strategies for proactively preparing for intervening in conflict.

Most of Marshall’s clinical practice has focused on attachment trauma and its effect on family relationships. After years of seeing clients, Marshall now conducts supervision and consultation sessions with counseling professionals and leads trainings in both parenting and professional settings; much of his consultation and training focuses on the use of sandtray therapy within an attachment and trauma-informed context. As Marshall is nearing the completion of his Ph.D. in Marriage and Family Therapy, writing and teaching take up much of his time. In addition to his professional life, Marshall and his wife are adoptive parents of two amazing teenagers.
