The behavioral health field is buzzing with curiosity about psychedelic-assisted treatment and the prospect of radical shifts in self-concept and self-understanding. This excitement is warranted, and it also highlights a question: Are profound shifts in one’s sense of self possible with non-psychedelic modalities of treatment? Developmental trauma can create and reinforce a rigid narrative of self as defective, unworthy, and unlovable. People can get stuck, often unconsciously, in a deficient sense of self and perpetuate patterns of relating to themselves and others that are unhealthy. In this presentation, we will explore how people can have meaningful experiences that help them to transcend a deficient sense of self and feel worthy and able to engage in healthier patterns of being and relating.

Dr. Caldwell has published a number of articles on child maltreatment, attachment theory, emotion regulation and mindfulness and he is a noted international speaker and trainer on these and other topics.
