Episode 3: Healing Childhood Trauma and Attachment...

Peggy Oliveira Author

Episode Description:

There are many layers to the impact of experiencing childhood trauma. Attachment wounds are woven throughout many of these layers.

In today’s episode I’ll share an example of how they can manifest on this healing journey and what happens when they’re not recognized as part of the overall healing process.

This episode underscores the importance of addressing the root causes of symptoms rather than merely treating surface-level manifestations (for example, symptoms associated with depression or anxiety).

I share the importance of the role of a skilled therapist in fostering a safe and trusting therapeutic relationship which allows you to have experiences that help heal core wounds and build secure attachments.
