Presented by Greater Richmond Scan
This workshop explores how disruptions in early attachment—particularly within the first five years of life—can be experienced as trauma by young children. Participants will gain a deeper understanding of how trauma and attachment are interconnected, and how early relational disruptions can affect a child’s emotional, social, and developmental well-being. The session will also examine the types of trauma that most commonly impact attachment, including loss, neglect, and family violence. Emphasis will be placed on strategies for supporting and strengthening the caregiver-child bond, with a focus on practical tools and approaches that professionals can use in their work with families.
