Send us Fan MailMy guest this episode is Brooke Randolph, author, speaker, and trainer.  She specialities are Adoption, Brainspotting, relationships, and developmental trauma. She's a a certified Imago Relationship Therapist, a Certified Brainspotting Trainer & Consultant, and coordinator for the groups Brainspotting Indy and Brainspotting with Adoption.In this episode it is fascinating to hear how Brooke gives first hand insights into the complexity of adoption and childhood attachment trauma.  Through her experience and expertise in therapy she has developed an approach that seeks to facilitate natural healing in appreciation of the innate wisdom of the internal system and the limitless implicit wisdom therein.  Brooke speaks to the challenges of working with those with complex attachment trauma histories and how therapists and attachment figures can benefit from fully meeting the child's expression of their emotional world unconditionally to let their system feel heard, felt and to facilitate co-regulation. She expands on how the pressures of time and expectation of outcome can inadvertently impede the sense of trust and safety in the therapeutic relationship.  Instead, she tells us, as we prioritise the relationship and accept that this takes time, then we create the conditions for deep, long-lasting healing and rewarding relationships. For more information on Brooke’s work go to:   Support humanitarian trainings in Oceania https://brooke-randolph.com/humanitarian-trainings-in-oceania/Brainspotting with Adoption & the Constellation Set-Ups Specialty Training https://brooke-randolph.com/consultation-training/brainspotting-training/brainspotting-with-adoption-specialty-training/Recommended reading https://www.amazon.com/shop/brandolphlmhcReceive monthly list of Adoption Therapy resources https://practiceexcellence.ck.page/706af9f5bdCreative Ways to Use Brainspotting with Couples online course https://brooke-randolph.teachable.com/p/creative-ways-to-use-brainspotting-with-couplesSocial Media links https://linktr.ee/BrookeRandolphSupport the showFor more information on Brainspotting and to train with Dr Mark Grixti go to:https://bspuk.co.uk/trainings-and-events/https://www.facebook.com/brainspottingukhttps://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/awe-in-trauma/id1580294433?i=1000543054793https://twitter.com/BrainspottingUKhttps://www.instagram.com/brainspotting_uk/https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-wfQEAwQX3qr36zkhh9J0g
