From the course

EMDR for Attachment Injuries

Babies are born into this world with a natural instinct to attach, ready to get their needs met in any way they can, this is nature's way of allowing us to survive. And when it works well, it enhances relationships, quality of life, lifelong. But when it goes wrong, there can be a tremendous ripple effect and can lead to a wide range of mental health difficulties. For us as therapists, it's vital that we really understand in-depth what is happening, what is at the root of some of these difficulties so that we can address them and really have a positive impact.
