SUMMARY:When Mothers Wound
DESCRIPTION:Why is it often so hard to heal from wounds inflicted by a mother who did not meet our needs and how do we come to terms with lack of maternal love in the way we needed it? \nToday we will explore different kinds of difficult mothering\, considering how this can shape our self concept\, and the maternal transference that often is present in the counselling room. \nJoin us as we explore:  \n\nWhat we need for a sense of safety and emotional regulation\, originating in our infant experience\nHow ‘difficult’ mothering causes a relational dilemma\nFive types of problematic mothering\, including controlling and emotionally unavailable mothers\nHow we may feel very obviously affected by a mother wound\, but how its effects can also be subtle – and why this is just as important\nConsiderations for client work\, including how a client’s experiences in this area might surface in our work together\n\nWe will also hear some raw and powerful testimonies from people who have struggled with their mothers for different reasons\, and how they have come to find a way forward.

SUMMARY:The Scapegoat & the Golden Child: Healing the Wounds of Family Blame & Favouritism with Katy Bodman
DESCRIPTION:Today we will together explore the complex family dynamics of the scapegoat and the golden child through a person-centred therapeutic lens—one rooted in empathy\, unconditional positive regard\, and a deep belief in each individual’s innate capacity for growth and healing. \nIn families impacted by narcissistic traits\, these roles are often unconsciously assigned to meet the emotional needs of the system\, rather than the individual. While the golden child may be idealised and burdened with unrealistic expectations\, the scapegoat is often blamed\, pathologised\, and emotionally exiled. Both roles carry profound and distinct forms of pain. This course invites us to compassionately explore how these dynamics shape not only a client’s self-concept\, but also their sense of worth\, autonomy\, and ability to connect in relationships. \nWe will consider why these patterns are so compelling and enduring in narcissistic family systems\, how they obscure genuine connection in favour of control and image\, and how we can provide the conditions that support clients to reconnect with their true selves and move beyond these roles and into a fuller\, more authentic life.

SUMMARY:Attachment & Shame with Pauline Andrew
DESCRIPTION:Today’s training explores how early developmental deficits and trauma affect the Attachment system of a young child.  Supremely when shame is weaponised\, we will see how a child’s security can be destroyed\, leaving anxiety and self-doubt in its place.  We will explore how the invasive and pervasive effects of shame lead to struggles in relationships and personal growth through into teenage and adulthood. \nThe training will include how to work with Attachment and Shame in the counselling room\, including different interventions and creative tools for working with this key area in therapy. \nWho is the training for?\nQualified counsellors\, counsellors in training and people in related professions. \nWhat’s the aim of the training?\nTo explore the part Toxic Shame plays in human development\, and how it affects the Attachment behaviour of clients. \nWhat will I learn from the training?\nHow to introduce the concept of Shame and Attachment to clients\, using psychoeducation and creative tools. \nCatch-up link:\nYou will automatically receive this within a few days of the training taking place.
