Description

The echoes of childhood pain leave profound scars that can last a lifetime.

But treating the resulting trauma isn’t easy and comes with clinical challenges like intrusive memories, emotional dysregulation, and fears of abandonment or intimacy that hurt their relationships.

And while attachment theory is informative, it doesn’t translate that knowledge into effective practice.

That’s why I created this exciting new training so you can fully understand how attachment trauma impacts your clients PLUS be fully prepared to treat them and achieve amazing results.

You’ll get powerful techniques from mindfulness, guided memory exercises, and trauma-informed narrative therapy. I’ll break it all down for you – step by step – so you’ll know exactly what to do and when.

  • We’ll kick things off with mindfulness practices that help your clients calm their nervous systems, recognize their triggers, and break the patterns hurting their relationships.
  • Then, I’ll share guided memory and imagery techniques to help your clients disempower painful memories and transform feelings of abandonment into a sense of safety and security.
  • Finally, we’ll dive into trauma-informed narrative therapy exercises that let your clients tell and take control of their stories, reshape how they see themselves, and build the healthy relationships they deserve.

And because we all work with clients from diverse backgrounds, I’ll make sure you have the tools to adapt these strategies for everyone, including those from marginalized communities.

Don’t miss this chance to help your clients break the cycle of attachment trauma, reclaim their self-worth, and foster meaningful connections.
