Transmission of attachment patterns from parents to children
This eBook explores generational attachment patterns and how EMDR therapy can reprocess the unresolved relational experiences that drive insecure attachment, creating the conditions for secure connection across generations.
E-Book Description
“Researchers tell us that parents with non-secure patterns of attachment pass along these patterns to their children about 70-80% of the time.
In this eBook, Debra Wesselmann explores generational attachment patterns and shows how EMDR therapy can reprocess the unresolved relational experiences that drive insecure attachment, creating the conditions for secure connection across generations.
- Understand how experiences are maladaptively stored within memory networks along with stuck perceptions and feelings
- Recognize common misguided beliefs of dismissive, preoccupied, and unresolved/disorganized parents
- Learn how EMDR jump-starts the natural information processing system to promote healing.”
