Trauma, Attachment and Neurobiology - Irene MacDonald

This is about my journey of discovery around trauma with a starting place of adult trauma and PTSD. It is about the complex relationship between the traumatic event, the person experiencing it, and discovering who they were before their lives became frozen in trauma. It is about a journey into the earliest and most intimate of relationships, the mother-child relationship, and growing up within a family of origin; touching on secure, insecure and disorganised attachment and the neurobiological effects of this on the immature child's brain. It is a diverse presentation, drawing on the work of Daniel Siegal, Sue Gerhardt, Bessel Van der Kolk, Babette Rothschild, Alan Schore, Francine Shapiro, Judith Herman and many others, and in keeping with the emerging theory of complex childhood trauma as the basis for serious adult mental health problems. It is also about many theoretical approaches and the importance of the therapeutic relationship in healing
