No one is immune to the far-reaching effects of trauma. Whether it is a negative belief about yourself that you learned in childhood, or a singular event that continues to impact your sense of safety and autonomy, trauma affects individuals, families, and the stability of a community when untreated.

Attachment to the most influential people in our lives is a normal and fundamental aspect of our humanity. Unfortunately as children and into adulthood we often do not experience our needs being met in the way that we need.
