Human beings are wired for connection and belonging

Whether you work in healthcare, education, or any profession that supports others, understanding the theory and neurobiology of attachment is essential.

In this innovative and practical course, you’ll explore how attachment adaptations shape our sense of self, relationships, and interactions throughout life. More importantly, you’ll gain strategies to foster co-regulation, helping you build attuned, meaningful connections with those you support.

Join us to deepen your understanding of neurobiology, attachment, and human connection – and elevate the way you engage with others.
