I’m thrilled to be teaching with The Embody Lab in their Somatic Attachment Therapy Certificate Program starting in late January 2022.

This 60 hour certificate program will include 33 two-hour modules offered over 13 weeks: JANUARY 30th - APRIL 28th

ATTACHMENT TRAUMA:

A holistic approach to trauma defines attachment injury not as an event or a challenged relationship, but rather as a disruption and overwhelm to our body-mind’s capacity to feel safe, secure, cared for, and consistently connected with.

Attachment trauma may be less visible than other traumatic experiences and may manifest as patterns in our physiology, thoughts, behavior, and interactions with other people and our environment. Attachment trauma might emerge in early childhood, adolescence or in our adult life as symptoms of anxiety, depression numbness, disconnection, defensiveness, or a sense that parts of your Self are numb, hidden, fractured, or inaccessible.

The effects of Attachment Trauma may include:

  • Physical symptoms such as tightness in the body, muscle tension, constrictions around the breath.

  • Emotional symptoms such as flatness / inability to feel, impulsivity, fear, anxiety, panic, depression, overwhelm, loss of choice, difficulty feeling comforted, anger, and shame.

  • Challenge identifying or expressing feelings and needs.

  • Psychological symptoms such as dissociation, mental rumination, low self worth, rigid or loose boundaries, negative self talk, self blame, depression, challenges in actioning goals, and loss of joy.

  • Relational / social symptoms such as isolation, loneliness, avoidance, lack of fulfillment, unintentional attraction to red flags, challenges with communication, trust and intimacy.

The wounds from our past are embedded in our present and interfere with our ability to feel secure in body and mind and challenges our ability to form and maintain our ideal relationships.

However, as Dr. Scott Lyons, founder of The Embody Lab says “Our basic blueprint as humans is connection and bonding - sometimes we just need the right support at the right time to find our way back home.”

I’m thrilled to be joining The Embody Lab for their Somatic Attachment Therapy Certificate starting in January 2022 to learn how to offer that ‘right support’. They’ll be teaching powerful tools for healing attachment trauma and deepening connection with the world’s leading somatic attachment therapists.

This is a unique opportunity to study with teachers such as Dr Diane Poole Heller, Euphrasia "Efu" Nyaki, Dr Dan Sigel, Dr. Maureen Gallagher, Karine Bell, Kai Cheng Thom, Dr Scott Lyons, Jessica Montgomery, Dr Albert Wong, Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen, and many more.
