“Corrective Emotional Experience”    Have you ever heard of this term?   These experiences facilitate our healing in ways that “doing the work” and journaling can’t quite reach.    Inside of today’s episode we do a deep dive on:  Understanding the importance of internalized attachment figures.  Exploring retraumatization, and the defense of dissociating from emotion.  What is required for allowing corrective emotional experiences into your life.    No matter your past, healthy, securely attached relationships are available to you!    If you enjoyed this episode or it resonated with you in any way, it would mean the world to me if you went and left a 5 star, written review on Apple podcasts. PLUS, when you leave a review it helps other people find the show!   Just head to the Let's Get Vulnerable page in the app, scroll down to find the subhead titled "Ratings & Reviews", and select "Write a Review"!   XOXO - Dr. Morgan
