Disorganized attachment is incredibly frustrating to live with.

Scratching the surface, this type of attachment trauma requires a whole lot of patience, consistency, trust. It requires relational risk with SAFE people, where we get the chance to discover it can be safe to be vulnerable and our needs can be met.

Their words become the way we think and feel about ourselves. Our inner voice.

It shows up in the way we speak to ourselves when we make a mistake, when we’re upset or in need, what we see in the mirror, and how we show up in relationships.

No amount of unresolved trauma will be an excuse for harm done. It can, however, point to the reality that it was never about you.

I hope everyone is recovering well from their Mother’s Day weekend- whether it be because it was busy and full, or because it was heavy and complicated. 🫶🏻

There is important information from your traumatic experiences that we don’t want to leave in the past.

You have new skills, ways of intervening, and protecting yourself now - this is empowerment. You no longer have to tolerate harmful behavior or unsafe environments. You can protect yourself.

Your symptoms make sense in the context of your experience. Lasting change can start to happen when we can safely bring these emotional truths to conscious awareness.

Because these parts of you and your story are just as significant as the nitty gritty of trauma work. 🩵
