あらすじ・解説
Matthew Green and Lisa Schwarz explore these key aspects of healing generational trauma:
- All present-day trauma can be understood as having generational and collective roots, and shows itself in the endless replaying of victim, perpetrator and failed rescuer dynamics
- To provide successful generational healing that sticks, the therapist must help the client interweave the narrative with the emotional and somatic memories
- The need for the client to be as fully embodied as possible to have more capacity and processing ability for the more multi-dimensional work.
- Spotting red flags for the need for generational work - including addictions, pervasive victimhood stance, perpetration dynamics, and medical and psychological symptoms that are non-responsive to regular treatment
- The need for the therapist to be aware of how generational trauma creates obstacles and blocks to healing.
- The requirement for the therapist to do their own work, to perceive clearly what needs attention in their clients' presentations.
- The therapist's need for energetic protections and use of resources to mitigate against any less-than-beneficial generational material exposure.
