i love the book that Sebern Fisher wrote, "Neurofeedback in the Treatment of Developmental Trauma: Calming the Fear-Driven Brain" especially in regards to what she writes about developmental trauma and how the transference from clients suffering from DT typically plays out in talk therapy and how many Ts (especially ones who are not truama informed) handle it incorrectly, especially within their own countertransferences. her book spoke volumes for me like nothing else ever had because i related to it on such a major level with my own therapy and the relationship with my T.
i used a lot of her protocols in my own NFB. my NFB practitioner had been trained by her and when she came to visit my country she offered an intimate (small group of practitioners) weekend training session at his clinic. he invited hubby and me to attend. it was quite a unique and such a special opportunity to meet her and have the opportunity to talk one on one with her. i felt quite fortunate to have that experince be a part of my own healing journey.
