Course 1:
Healing Inner Wounds through an Attachment Lens: Phases 1 and 2

Presented by Sandra Stanford

Do some of your clients struggle to form or maintain healthy relationships?

Have you noticed clients experiencing deep emotional reactions that don’t seem to match the present moment—but make perfect sense in light of their past?

Often, these patterns trace back to early attachment wounds—moments in childhood when connection was broken, inconsistent, or unsafe. These wounds can leave clients feeling profoundly alone, even in the presence of others. And yet, the path to healing begins exactly where the pain started: with attachment.

In this heartfelt and insightful training, Sandra B. Stanford, LMHC, will guide therapists through the territory of wounded attachment. Through lecture and powerful video demonstrations, Sandra will explore the foundations of attachment—both wounded and secure—and help participants understand how early relational trauma shapes clients’ emotional worlds.

The four styles of attachment will be taught and how they show up in your clients’ lives today. Sandra will share strategies that clients used to survive in distressed family environments—and how those strategies might now be keeping them stuck. Most importantly, therapists will be given tools to help your clients recognize their patterns, reconnect with themselves, and build secure attachments with others.

In this course, Sandra will guide participants through Phases 1 and 2 of EMDR Therapy, with a special emphasis on intake questions that explore preverbal experiences and uncover the pain of aloneness often hidden beneath a client’s story. During Phase 2 preparation, she will teach how to help clients build inner resources and establish a sense of emotional safety. You’ll learn effective calming techniques and how to apply Laurel Parnell’s Gathering Team approach. Through video demonstrations and scripted examples, Sandra will show how clients can connect with healing figures and begin to experience new, reparative relational experiences. Her warm, engaging teaching style fosters a supportive and encouraging environment for meaningful learning and professional growth.

Join us to learn how to support your clients as they move from isolation to connection—and from merely surviving to truly thriving.

Course 2:
Healing Inner Wounds through an Attachment Lens II: Phases 3-8

Presented by Sandra Stanford

Sandra B. Stanford, LMHC presents Part 2 of her series guiding therapists through the complex landscape of wounded attachment. Through lecture and compelling video demonstrations, Sandra explores Phases 3–8 of healing attachment wounds using EMDR therapy.

The training begins with a review of the four attachment styles before moving into practical demonstrations. Using real clinical examples, Sandra illustrates how EMDR can help clients process early relational injuries and move toward a more peaceful and integrated resolution.

Participants will gain practical tools to help clients recognize their relational patterns, reconnect with themselves, and develop more secure attachments with others. Sandra’s warm and engaging teaching style creates a supportive learning environment that fosters meaningful learning and professional growth for clinicians.
