Healing Intergenerational Trauma Through Parenting | Attachment Therapy with Dafna Lender

Описание: Healing Intergenerational Trauma Through Parenting | Attachment Therapy with Dafna Lender

Academy of Therapy Wisdom trainings for therapists explores a powerful attachment-based approach to healing childhood trauma through present-day parenting relationships. In this training, Dafna Lender, LCSW, an expert in attachment-focused family therapy, explains how therapists can help adult clients repair their own childhood wounds by working on their relationship with their child.

Designed for therapists, counselors, and mental health professionals, this session introduces a clinically intuitive yet often underutilized intervention: inviting adult clients who are parents to explore how their current symptoms—such as depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, or relationship struggles—may be connected to unresolved attachment experiences from childhood.

Lender explains how intergenerational trauma operates through unconscious relational patterns that are often replayed in parenting relationships. When therapists help clients develop more attuned, secure, and responsive relationships with their own children, those new experiences can create a powerful reparative process. By parenting differently in the present, clients can symbolically “reparent” their younger selves and reduce longstanding feelings of shame, loneliness, and self-doubt.

The training offers practical guidance on how therapists can sensitively introduce this therapeutic avenue—even when clients initially come to therapy for unrelated concerns. Rather than focusing solely on the client’s past, Lender demonstrates how working with the living, evolving parent-child relationship can become a transformative pathway for healing attachment trauma.

This module is ideal for therapists working with adult clients who are parents, as well as clinicians interested in attachment-based therapy, family systems, and intergenerational trauma repair.
