Power of Attachment
• Attachment provides the template for how we see all relationships
• Think how Windows allows us to operate software like Word, ITunes and internet browsers
• Our emotional, cognitive and social functions operate from our attachment experience
• Trauma = Virus in the system

Retraumatization
•Mind’s attempt at integrating the experience into the personality
•As long as the trauma can not be put into words it will be relived through emotions and behaviors
•The emotions that are experienced are the emotions that need to be overcome in order to gain mastery over the trauma that they could not stop

Relationship with Helper: Foundation for Focused Attention
“Recovery can take place only within the context of relationships; it cannot occur in isolation. In her renewed connections with other people, the survivor re-creates the psychological faculties that were damaged or deformed by the traumatic experience.”
– Judith Herman

Determinants of Successful Client Outcomes
Steps to Prevent Re-traumatization•See the environment through the client’s eyes.
• Is the environment safe, calm and predictable or overly chaotic or rigid• Do your procedures and program rules treat clients as you would want to be
treated
•Help set client expectations of what their experience will be like in your program• New situation elicit fear that can be associated with the fear of the traumatic
experience• Boundaries that define the helping relationship• Program rules and expectations of the client• Introduction to staff
Bloom & Farragher, 2011; Rock, 2009 & Herman, 1997
Steps to Prevent Re-traumatization•Build Safety
• Do what you say you will do• Do it to the best of your ability• Adhere to and model healthy boundaries• Provide honest reflection• Trust and respect client
•Go slow and go slower• Re-traumatization occurs most often when the helper or program pushes the
client beyond their sense of safety• Check in often
