These recommendations are for clinicians or clients but if you are a client please don’t start the exercises before we discuss
Attachment is such an important part of healing. A helpful activity involves reading a book in a snuggly ‘kiddo way’ with an attachment figure. This may be done in session of between sessions at the therapist’s recommendation.
Therapists may also find these books helpful even working with ‘parts.’
Once again please don’t try this without therapist instructions and green light.

Nancy Tillman has A TON of amazing books everyone has heard of like On the Night You Were Born and It’s Time to Sleep, My Love but my favorite is The Crown on Your Head
For Teens or clients struggling with finding their place I love Maybe: A Story About the Endless Potential in all of Us by Kobi Yamada https://amzn.to/3CBow4u
