Generative Attachment model: From isolation to connection

In this workshop, Yulia Abramova, MA will present the Generative Attachment Model (GAM), a 7-step process for working with disorganized attachment style while holding clients with C-PTSD. The intention of GAM is to create a base for more secure attachment to be formed through embodied and relational being. Clients are supported in building the capacity to be, know their need, and be able to receive holding, with further transition to developing a balance between co-regulation and self-regulation.

Svetlana Kreimer, LMFT will offer the perspective on attachment work from the Process Model lens.

The workshop will be instrumental for practitioners, therapists, and social workers who embrace an attachment lens in C-PTSD support.

Learning Objectives:
– Identify characteristics of clients with disorganized attachment style
– Identify challenges and resources of working with these clients
– Identify the sequence of steps called “Generative Attachment Curve” to support clients’ ability to receive connection
– Practice the Generative Attachment curve experientially
– Identify strategies to apply Generative Attachment Model in clinical practice

Yulia Abramova & Svetlana Kreimer

Yulia Abramova entered psychological field being 13 years old, when her school teacher offered her books of Boulby, Winnicot and Kernberg. Something clicked, as her own trauma history started to make sense.
By 21 Yulia completed her MA in clinical psychology from Moscow State University as well as became an international trainer of Neuro-linguistic programming. Eager to connect her love for movement and body exploration with the history of developmental trauma and clinical knowledge, Yulia made a deep dive into somatic approaches of working with developmental trauma.
Holding her own individual practice, as well as training emerging clinicians in the Institute of Clinical Psychology and Psychotherapy (Moscow, RF), Yulia together with 2 colleagues have developed and taught "Healing trauma program".
Having her own experience living with C-PTSD, Yulia continues to find ways to support people out of experience of isolation towards capacity to receive connection.

Svetlana Kreimer is a supervisor, trainer and clinical director at the Process Therapy Institute.
