A lot of people come into this work confused about why things are still feeling so hard.
Theyâve read the books, unpacked their childhood and understand their attachment history.
And yet certain moments still hit them deep because whatâs often missing from the conversation is that their body didnât stop learning after childhood.
Adult trauma such as betrayal, emotional neglect, chronic invalidation, unsafe, dynamics, long-term stress - are what shape your sense of safety just as powerfully as early experiences do. Sometimes more so.
That doesnât erase where things began. But it does explain why healing canât stop there.
When clients of mine realize this, something shifts.
They stop assuming theyâve âmissed somethingâ or failed at healing.
They start understanding that their nervous system adapted across multiple chapters of their life - and each one deserves to be acknowledged fully.
Honoring the full story of what your body has had to survive is necessary and what brings real clarity to your healing process.đ¤
