Merely talking about a traumatic event is not enough: the parts of the brain where traumatic, implicit memories are stored don't understand words. Secure attachment is needed to buffer the impact. This book guides clinicians to fill in the missing experience of secure attachment in the form of a trusting, attuned, therapeutic relationship. With this help, clients can heal.
