Bonnie Tucker Circle of security/2
Presentation by Dr. Bob Marvin
I
loved this presentation. Dr. Marvin’s explanation on the Circle of Security was
so easy to follow. I can hardly wait until they return with more ways to learn
this information. His presentation was so easy to understand, as an upcoming
counselor my first thoughts would have been what is wrong with this child. Dr.
Marvin explained how it was not the child but the relationship between child
and Mom or caregiver.
I am
not sure right now that I would have picked up on the cues that the child was
sending out, if it had not been shown to me. The idea of the Circle of Security
is amazing. Growing up in a home with a
loving family, I do not believe I was ever in a position where I felt unloved
or not wanted, I was blessed. Maybe, that is why I did not see some of the
cues. Then we have the Circle of Limited
Security, this is where the biggest response is on the parent, the parent must
be alert to the pattern the child is carrying out. If the parent is not a loving attentive
parent he/she might miss the cues and then the child feels rejected, unloved,
anxious, and avoiding. Then the pattern starts all over again with the same
results. These patterns can be corrected using this program. I really find this fascinating and want to
learn more about it as well as the role that trauma plays into the
relationship.
