Nancy Verrier

Nancy Verrier is a psychological and psychiatric professional known for her work on the concept of "primal wound," which suggests that maternal separation or loss during early childhood can impact emotional development and behavior later in life. She emphasizes the deep, often unconscious bond between a mother and her child and how disruptions in this bond, such as in adoption or neglect, can cause feelings of loss and identity issues. Her work highlights the importance of understanding early childhood experiences for healing emotional wounds and fostering healthier relationships.
