Juliane Taylor Shore, LPC, LMFT, SEP
Welcome
When we feel safe, we risk vulnerability. We are brave about showing up authentically. We stay connected to those around us and we have flexibility in our responses.
Often our clients are able to experience a sense of safety in the therapy room, but how do we help them develop a greater sense of feeling safe outside of our offices?
Our clients have often intuited this connection between needing more safety and having better boundaries. They ask us to look at “having better boundaries” and we often think about this as a moment to teach them how to say “no,” and how to set limits with others.
But this is a very limited understanding of boundary work.
Fundamentally, boundaries are what help us and our clients feel safe…and from safety, we can fully engage in relationships with a sense of self-worth and confidence.
The brain is actively processing boundaries on many different levels simultaneously: Our sense of safety comes first from our autonomic nervous system, which scans our body over 200 times a minute, for signs of physical danger. Equally important are our sense of psychological safety in relationships, our sense of being OK with ourselves, and our sense of living our lives in integrity with our values.
Each of these senses of safety is monitored and protected by specific neural patterns that we call boundaries.
- In this course, we’ll cover the following topics:
- Session 1: What Do We Mean When We Say Boundaries?
- Session 2: Finding Interpersonal Peace Through Your Psychological Boundary
- Session 3: Living in Integrity with Your Containing Boundary
- Session 4: Executing Boundaries Interpersonally
- Session 5: Deepening Boundary Work: Safety and Grief
In each session, we will go in-depth into the different neural network patterns that the brain uses to process boundaries. We can then utilize that knowledge to design practices that work with each type of neural network, so we can offer clients tools to take home and use to permanently change their brains.
It’s one thing for a client to feel safe while they are in session with you….but with a clear understanding of boundaries, we can help our clients build safety for themselves and feel clear, respected, and empowered even when they aren’t in the therapy room.
Working with boundaries in this way has an exponential effect: clients begin to shift their relationships with themselves and others…which ends up shifting their family system, as well as their social and professional environments. Ultimately, it ends up shifting all the systems they touch and creating positive social change.
We invite you to join us today.

What Do We Mean When We Say Boundaries?
In this session, we will define four different kinds of boundaries, learn to assess and discern which kind of boundaries your client needs to focus on, and begin to explore pathways in the brain that support boundary work. We’ll also dissect clinical work with clients to take the ideas out of the classroom and into session.
In this module, we’ll:
- Explore how boundary work is helpful to clients
- Define four types of boundary work
- Define pathways in the brain that support boundaries
- Assess which type of boundary work a client needs
- Learn contracting techniques to help clients feel clear, respected, and empowered
Finding Interpersonal Peace Through Your Psychological Boundary
In this session, we will dive deeply into the work of increasing Psychological Boundary. We will define the brain regions involved and use this knowledge to inform clinical interventions. You will leave with the ability to differentiate between common adaptations clients deploy when they do not have Psychological Boundary and with practices your clients can execute right away to begin changing their brains now. We’ll see clinical work with clients to take the ideas out of the classroom and into session.
Learning objectives:
- Define Psychological Boundary
- Understand the parts of the brain involved in the creation of Psychological Boundary
- Define how Psychological Boundary improves relationships
- Identify common adaptations to boundary deficiency in this type of boundary
- Understand how neural networks change in the brain
- Learn practices that clients can use to increase their Psychological Boundary
Living in Integrity with Your Containing Boundary
In this session, we will dive deeply into the work of increasing Containing Boundary. We will define the brain regions involved and use this knowledge to inform clinical interventions. You will leave with the ability to identify a lack of Containing Boundary and learn how to hold clients in finding clarity about their true integrity and work with them to live with accountability and moderation. We’ll look at clinical work with clients to take the ideas out of the classroom and into session.
Learning objectives:
- Define Containing Boundary
- Understand the parts of the brain involved in the creation of Containing Boundary
- Define how Containing Boundary improves relationships with others and self
- Identify common adaptations to boundary deficiency in this type of boundary
- Understand how neural networks change in the brain
- Learn practices that clients can use to increase their Containing Boundary and increase accountability to themselves and others
Executing Boundaries Interpersonally
In this session, we will work with healthy Executed Boundaries. You will leave with the ability to guide clients through a six-step process of healthy boundary execution. We will explore issues that often stop clients from executing boundaries in healthy ways, such as fearing disappointment, longing to control outcome, and longing to have boundaries to be answered in a specific way. We’ll examine clinical work with clients to take the ideas out of the classroom and into session.
Learning objectives:
- Define Executed Boundary
- Learn six steps that you can teach clients to guide healthy boundary setting
- Define ways of thinking that get in the way of executing boundary well
- Identify common adaptations to boundary deficiency in this type of boundary
- Understand how the skills of Psychological and Containing Boundary are essential to support the Executed Boundary
- Learn practices that clients can use to create healthy Executed Boundaries in their relationships
Deepening Boundary Work: Safety and Grief
In this session, we will work with the repair of physical boundaries when they have been violated and with the grief that is an inherent part of all boundary work. You will leave with interventions to help clients shift the tone of their autonomic nervous system when there has been a boundary violation, as well as an understanding of how to help them process the grief and loneliness that almost always comes up doing this work. We’ll explore real clinical demos to take the ideas out of the classroom and into session.
Learning objectives:
- Assess for safety related issues with boundary work
- Learn interventions to reestablish the felt sense of safety and boundary
- Identify how grief is present in each type of boundary work
- Learn interventions to support clients in undoing aloneness while they are in grief processes

Meet Your Presenter
Juliane Taylor Shore, LPC, LMFT, SEP
Juliane Taylor Shore, LPC, LMFT, SEP (AKA Jules) is a therapist and trainer of therapists in Austin, Texas. She specializes in applying Interpersonal Neurobiology to the healing of trauma and the creation of relational health with clients she sees. She uses her knowledge of the brain and the implicit mind to go decisively to the root of the issue with gentleness and depth.
Jules has been a specialist in trauma recovery and in couples counseling for 12 years, and loves to work experientially because that is how to meet and invite shifts in the implicit mind. She wants to help people find the love, connection, and grace they have always longed for, both in themselves and with each other.
In addition to seeing weekly clients and teaching, Jules offers intensives for couples and for individuals who come from all over to do in-depth work in a brief format.
