The Primal Wound examines the emotional impact of separation from birth parents and how those early experiences influence attachment, behaviour, and identity across life.

Drawing on pre- and perinatal psychology, attachment theory and grief research, the book explains common responses seen in adoptees and offers language that validates their feelings.

Valuable to adoptive families, birth parents and professionals, it aims to deepen understanding and support healthier relationships and healing.

Key takeaways

  • How early separation affects attachment and emotional development
  • Practical perspectives for parents and therapists
  • Validation and explanation of adoptee behaviour
