Send Me Questions on Attachment

What if your brain isn’t broken—it’s just stuck? We sit down with trauma therapist Maggie McCane, LCSW, to unravel how big T and little t trauma shape your body, beliefs, relationships, and even how you see God. From the first moment a young brain misreads a storm as “I don’t matter” to decades of confirmation bias and physical symptoms, we trace how pain embeds in the nervous system and what it takes to move it into the past.

Maggie explains why she left agency work to create a flexible practice that prioritizes extended EMDR intensives and individualized care. We dig into how EMDR “unsticks” memories, what resourcing looks like before deep work, and why motivation can’t outrun a dysregulated body. You’ll hear practical ways to notice early signs—sleep, gut issues, irritability, hypervigilance—and translate them into action steps that restore balance. Instead of silencing the body, we treat its signals as vital data.

Faith takes center stage without clichés. We talk Christian integration done well, the damage of spiritual platitudes, and how attachment to God often mirrors early caregiver attachment. Using correspondence and compensation theories, we map how negative God images form and how consistent, timely, and effective experiences in community and prayer can heal them. We keep it grounded: what healing actually looks like day to day, how to evaluate therapist fit, and why trust is the number one predictor of change.

If you’ve ever wondered why you feel triggered by everything, why “just think positive” falls flat, or where God was in your hardest moments, this conversation offers clarity and tools. Listen, share with someone who needs it, and if it landed, subscribe, leave a review, and tell us what belief you’re ready to rewrite.
