Understanding Scars and Adaptations

The speakers discuss the scars that clients may have as a result of their experiences, highlighting the indications of these scars such as dissociation. They emphasize the importance of therapists empathizing and understanding their clients' experiences, and the role of co-regulation in healing. The chapter also explores the use of EMDR therapy in relation to the polyvagal theory and the benefits it offers in making the nervous system more agile and resilient.
