The Trauma Grid: Relational Healing & Attachment Theory

The Trauma Grid provides a helpful framework on how childhood wounds and trauma, and the relationships we have with our initial caretakers can influence how we show up in adult relationships. The grids represent self-esteem on the Y axis and boundaries on the X axis. This can be a helpful tool in relational healing work, and understanding how your child ego states develop, and reappear in relationships throughout your life.
