The initial imprints of our earliest attachment and trauma wounds can manifest in our work and relationships as we help to heal the trauma wounds of others. In his seminal work, The Body Keeps the Score, Bessel van der Kolk notes that "scared animals return home, regardless of whether home is safe or frightening." This webinar is part one of a two-part series. This webinar gives specific attention to the unique ways that helpers will often gravitate toward the most familiar and recognizable aspects of their childhoods.
