Cracking the Attachment Code (Paperback)

Paperback. The Hidden Code in Every HugImagine your child melting down over a minor "no," spiraling into defiance that leaves you questioning everything. It's not rebellion-it's an attachment code activated by unseen trauma triggers. Disorganized attachment from infancy predicts up to 60% of behavioral escalations in youth, often misdiagnosed as ADHD or oppositionality. Why? Standard parenting ignores the "fear engine" revving beneath the surface, as explained by polyvagal theory.This book cracks that code using FACTS from over 100 sources, FOCUS on patterns like trauma loops (repeating cycles such as grief escalation isolation), overrides (where conventional fixes fail), and dynamics (internal nervous system states vs. external environments), and FIRE to spark solutions. Targeted at adoptive/foster parents, educators, and therapists, it spans 10 chapters blending evidence, anecdotes, and exercises. My 33+ years of expertise, rooted in TF-CBT and adoption competency, guide this journey. Ready to ignite change? Dive in. This item is printed on demand.
