The client who pulls away just when things get real… the one who clings but never trusts… or the one who vanishes after a breakthrough.

It’s not that these clients won’t heal—it’s that their body doesn’t yet know how to feel safe enough to…

Somatic therapy meets them where words can’t—rewiring safety, trust, and connection at the nervous system level so change actually sticks.

Join Dr. Wanda Brothers, an expert in both Somatic Experiencing™ and Dynamic Attachment Repatterning experience, who’s been teaching, practicing therapy, and speaking for more than 20 years.  Dr. Brother’s unique approach to trauma treatment focuses on teaching therapists how to work directly with clients’ attachment systems to bring forth rapid healing.

Dr. Brothers will teach you how to…

  • Identify your clients’ attachment style in less than 2 minutes
  • Develop individualized treatment plans for each insecure attachment style that target core wounds
  • Create “corrective emotional experiences” for clients with anxious, avoidant, and ambivalent/disorganized attachment styles that truly heal deep wounds
  • Use ordinary moments in therapy as pivots points for change and growth
  • Help clients set boundaries that respect their trauma narratives

PLUS, get training on crucial self-of-the-therapist areas – like addressing your own implicit memories, not getting ‘pulled in’ to clients’ narratives, and how to keep your own stress from impacting sessions.

Bypass the limits of talk therapy and start working in the present moment with somatic therapy techniques that work… rewire your clients’ attachment systems.

This is the training that shows you how – register now!

Toggle speaker biography

Wanda Brothers, MA, LMFT, is a Somatic Trauma Expert and certified in Dynamic Attachment Repair experience (DARe), somatic coach, and trauma-healing expert with over 23 years of clinical experience. For the past 18 years, she has specialized in the integration of neuroscience, physiology, and attachment theory to help clients resolve and heal deep-rooted wounds and restore emotional regulation.

In addition to her clinical practice, Wanda is a seasoned speaker, educator, and clinical supervisor and recently accepted the role of Professor of Somatics for the master’s program at Integrative Psychology Institute.

Wanda also created the Educational Trauma and Resiliency program, a four-module training designed for teachers in underserved schools, equipping them with practical tools on trauma, attachment, and fostering resiliency in students.
