Empowered! Family of Origin

“It’s always a case of mistaken identity.” —Pia Mellody

That which we do not heal from childhood we replay in adulthood.

This workshop is a 3 day intensive that investigates the origins of adult dysfunctional behaviors. In this revolutionary educational and experiential workshop participants learn to identify the childhood wounds which fuel adult dysfunction, i.e., depression, anxiety, addictions, eating disorders and relationship difficulties. The focus is not on blaming caregivers; but rather healing the trauma (defined as any less-than-nurturing events). The workshop is based on the groundbreaking work of Pia Mellody and utilizes her treatment model.
