56. Jennifer Rodriguez: Attachment theory and transgenerational trauma

Jennifer Rodriguez is an attachment-based psychotherapist specialising in
attachment-related issues and trauma. She holds a special interest in how the quality of our earliest attachments impact on our health, social and mental well-being; and in the neuroscience, neurobiology, ethology, phylogeny and how it shows up in the ‘between-us’ in the therapeutic space. She believes that there is a sacred primal wisdom in the body (mostly forgotten now in our fast-paced western civilisation), and in the wholeness of the mind-
body-spirit in what it means to be human. As when Mother Nature designs things that work, she then replicates it everywhere, Jennifer believes that we are a species that thrives not only in connection to ourselves but to every living being/creature on Earth as well as being of the Earth, and of being part of a greater intelligence beyond our capacity to understand it right now... .
She was educated, worked and lived in Trinidad, the UK, the US and France,
which ignited her interest in the ties of culture and nationhood, multi-cultural
perspectives and experiences.
Alongside this, and with over 30 years of international commercial and corporate
experience of advising senior professionals and their organisations, Jennifer is
experienced in coaching individuals to improve their leadership skills. She began
her career as a chartered Civil Engineer working across the UK construction
industry.
