À propos

Based on the safety, attunement, and availability of our caregivers during our childhood, we develop what John Bowlby termed “Internal Working Models.” These IWMs, consist of both conscious and subconscious stories, thoughts, feelings, and beliefs about ourselves and the world that either nourish and cultivate healthy self-development or, conversely, interfere with healthy self-development if the caregiving is misattuned. But, there is a solution. This is a rare opportunity to share space with an expert at this work; to see how this work can restructure the old, limiting Internal Working Model to a new Secure model Attachment patterns are learned; often in the first 24 months of life, before you had even developed verbal memory.
