DEVELOPMENTAL TRAUMA
Attachment failure is considered a primary trauma in that bonding is foundational to all other development. An adaptive child is driven by the need to survive and may seek to meet needs outside of relationships. Since the human brain organizes around primary relationships, impoverished relationships lead to impoverished brains, resulting in difficulty regulating affect, chronic anxiety, learning difficulties, social problems, and worse.
Art and play therapies are known as “holding therapies” and provide opportunities for children to discharge feelings of anger and defiance, while gaining control over their internal worlds and struggles.
