Dear AEDP Community,

We are excited to welcome Linda Thai, LMSW, to the AEDP® Institute DBEI Speaker Series for a free presentation on Friday, January 29, 2027.

  • Title: Secure Enough: War, Displacement, and a Wider Template for Secure Attachment
  • Time: 11:00 am – 12:15 pm ET
  • Cost: Free
  • CE: 1 CE Hour (APA, ASWB, NBCC & NYS)

Drawing on the lived experiences of individuals and families impacted by war, displacement, and intergenerational trauma, Linda challenges traditional Western attachment frameworks. She offers a more expansive understanding of safety and belonging, one that honors ancestry, culture, nature, the body, and time alongside our earliest relationships.

A trauma therapist and internationally recognized educator, Linda brings a deeply compassionate, culturally informed, and experiential approach to this important conversation.

This free event is an opportunity to broaden our perspectives and consider what it truly means to feel secure enough. We hope you’ll join us.
