Connection, Protection, and the Brain.

In this episode I talk about my newest obsession, attunement and the role of interpersonal neurobiology in therapy. I also share the exciting news that I had my first training CEU certified! My training on applied interpersonal neurobiology and attunement practices will be in February 2025. I also have a non CEU version available for folks who don’t want the CEs and want a lower cost. You can register for either of those trainings here https://linktr.ee/cptsdtherapistHope to see some of you there!! If you can’t make it, please feel free to share the info with other therapists you know and help me get the word out.

Just a brief episode of me discussing my thoughts on people pleasing as an attachment based adaptation. Also, weighing in on the “is people pleasing manipulation” debate https://linktr.ee/cptsdtherapist

In this episode I discuss how we make sense of trauma when it is happening, and how these meanings impact us long term. I discuss what it means to reprocess trauma by focusing on meanings and learnings instead of specific incidents and autobiographical memories.  o view Kinas resources and support her work, click here https://linktr.ee/cptsdtherapist You can follow Kina on Patreon and access bonus content here: https://www.patreon.com/complextraumarecovery
