“This category describes the “neural basis for
empathy” and the “social nature of the
human brain;” in essence, it is how we
understand each other in social situations and
interactions.”
“The human brain is able to perceive the
expressions of another individual and create
an internal state that resonates with the
other person.”
Dan Siegel

The right brain acts as “a unique response system preparing the
organism to deal efficiently with external challenges” and so its
adaptive functions mediate the stress coping mechanisms.
This psychoneurobiological conception thus highlights the critical role
of attachment experiences in the development of life-long coping
strategies.

Secure attachment implies a bond of emotional
communication between the infant and the
primary caregiver.

• Get an attachment figure to provide desired support
and relief from stress.

Hyperactivating Strategies
Highly anxious individuals’ hyperactivating
strategies may be manifested in hyper-vigilance
to threat cues (e.g., signs of partner’s rejection)
Mikulincer & Shaver, 2003, 2007
![Page 15: Severe Turbulence Handouts - Debra Kaplan Counseling](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081405/62949e5d970d951b700abaed/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Deactivating Strategies
Main, 1990; Mikulincer & Shaver, 2003, 2007.

of threats.

Davis et al., 2003; Fraley & Shaver, 1998

thoughts and avoid
support.

![Page 18: Severe Turbulence Handouts - Debra Kaplan Counseling](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081405/62949e5d970d951b700abaed/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Given that more anxious individuals tend to use
sex to serve their attachment needs it is hardly
surprising that they are especially likely to
experience enhanced sexual motivation and
frequent sexual fantasizing when faced with
relational threats.
Birnbaum, 2007, Mikulincer, Gillath, & Orpaz, Davis et al., 2006

Treatment of CPTSD/DID

• Self Injury - Self-injurious behavior may be divided into
two dimensions:
• Non-dissociative
• Dissociative
![Page 45: Severe Turbulence Handouts - Debra Kaplan Counseling](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081405/62949e5d970d951b700abaed/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Non-dissociative Self Injury
• Typifies children required to provide nurturing and support for parents or caretakers
• Reversal of dependence during formative years induces a child’s perception that (s)he can only feel anger toward self, but not toward others
• Induces Rage—Cannot express that rage toward anyone but him or herself
• Self-mutilation often becomes used as a means to express anger
(Levenkron, 1998)
![Page 46: Severe Turbulence Handouts - Debra Kaplan Counseling](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081405/62949e5d970d951b700abaed/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Dissociative Self Injury
• Occurs when a child feels a lack of warmth or caring, or cruelty by parents or caretakers
• A child feels disconnected in his/her relationships with parents and significant others
• Disconnection leads to a sense of "mental disintegration."
• In this case, self-mutilating behavior serves to center the person.
(Levenkron, 1998)
