Healing Developmental Trauma & Attachment Wounds: A Training for Therapists

Most of my clients come to see me because of powerful emotions such as anxiety or depression and relationship struggles. 


“I can’t live with her, I can’t live without her.”

“I am giving up on ever having a friend group because I always ruin it.”

“People tell me I’m too much. I self-medicate and isolate myself because it’s too hard to keep trying.” 

“My parents have always said I am needy. And now my partner is saying it.”

Clients don’t come in saying they have childhood development problems, but I can see this is the root of the problem. This is why Jenna Longmire and I are offering this training. 

As therapists, we recognize that relational trauma and attachment wounds are at the core of many of our clients’ struggles. Understanding these dynamics—and how they manifest neurobiologically, developmentally, and culturally—allows us to provide deeper, more effective healing interventions.

Our upcoming training is designed for clinicians who want to expand their expertise in working with developmental trauma and attachment-related issues. This comprehensive program will equip you with the knowledge and tools to:

What You’ll Learn:

✅ Describe relational trauma and attachment styles, along with the systemic, ancestral, and cultural contributions to both.
✅ Recognize the symptoms of developmental trauma and insecure attachment patterns in clients.
✅ Understand the neurobiology of mother-child attachment and its lifelong implications.
✅ Utilize evidence-based interventions to treat the symptoms of developmental trauma and heal attachment wounds.
✅ Introduce the Divine Feminine Archetype as a healing framework for your personal and clinical practice.

Why This Training Matters

Developmental trauma doesn’t just affect individuals—it shapes families, relationships, and entire cultural systems. By deepening your understanding of these core wounds, you can better support clients in rewriting their relational patterns, fostering secure attachment, and reclaiming their sense of wholeness.

The integration of the Divine Feminine Archetype into trauma work offers an additional layer of healing. This approach helps clients reconnect with nurturing, intuition, and self-compassion—key elements in the process of repairing attachment injuries.

Who Should Attend?

This training is ideal for:

  • Therapists, psychologists, social workers, and mental health professionals who work with trauma and attachment issues.
  • Clinicians looking to integrate a culturally aware and holistic approach to healing.
  • Practitioners interested in deepening their understanding of the neurobiology of trauma.
  • Anyone seeking new interventions for working with attachment wounds and generational healing.
