Consultation & Training
Our early attachment experiences with our caregivers shape our relationships throughout our lives. If we felt unheard or misunderstood by our families it can lead to difficulties in our adult relationships with friends, romantic partners, and ourselves. In working with young children and their caregivers, Dr. Locker hopes to help parents understand how their own parenting impacts their identity as a caregiver as well as helping them understand their child’s needs and develop a deeper connection. Working with older children, adolescents, and adults, she strives to help you understand how your early caregiving experiences are impacting your current wellbeing. Her goal is to create a secure relationship where you can feel understood and valued and better understand yourself through our work together. She currently works with clients of all ages, including couples, and family therapy.
