Course Details

Charlie’s traumatic birth and early years, marked by severe emotional and behavioral challenges, are explored through the lens of neuropsychotherapy. His therapy involved addressing implicit traumatic memories and helping him manage his internal objects without aggression. Central to this process were symbolic play activities like creating "worm babies" and interacting with "Mr. Crow," which represented his birth struggles and facilitated emotional regulation. Over 20 sessions, Charlie transitioned from fear-based responses to more integrated and regulated emotional states, improving his interactions at home and nursery.
