Counselor Carl (http://serenityonlinetherapy.com) explains the work of the great developmental psychologist, Erik Erikson, whose 1950 book Childhood and Society laid out his theory of the eight stages of human psychosocial development. He then uses Erikson's model to explain how when childhood needs are not met, children can develop shame, guilt, fear, and mistrust, which can significantly affect them as adults with respect to career, relationships, and emotional regulation. And finally, he explains how these needs can be met in adulthood through the process of "reparenting the wounded child." Counselor Carl's straight-forward teaching style makes complex concepts easy to understand. Counselor Carl is a licensed, professional counselor with more than 20 years of clinical experience both online and face-to-face.
