  • Codependency in relationships and how it relates to the fawn response, repressed needs, and issues with boundaries.
  • \\n
  • Understanding the fawn response as a normal biological strategy to avoid hurt, violence, threat, & difficulties in relationships, as well as a signal that we need more safety and care in our connections.
  • \\n
  • The 10 core emotional needs & how they nurture our sense of identity & connectedness in relationships as we learn to connect to the felt sense experience of these needs within our body.
  • \\n
  • The connection between safety and self-advocacy within relationships & how to trust the reactions within our bodies as a guide to our embodied needs.
  • \\n
  • The relationship between codependency and attachment & understanding attachment as a starting point/ barometer to measure the need for closeness or space in our connections.
  • \\n
  • Embodied boundaries & how self-advocacy ensures our safety, allows us to operate within our capacity, & find different thresholds of space/ closeness within our relationships.

Marshall focuses on helping codependents transition to self-sovereignty, fulfilling interdependence, and happiness. Marshall was deeply codependent and love-addicted for over 30 years due to tragedy and abuse in his childhood. He sought out help through CBT and DBT therapies and found success through non-traditional therapy (shamanic healing and trauma work). 

\\n

He trained as an emotional healing practitioner (using somatic approaches blended with inner journey work) from 2008 to 2010, and as a relationship coach from 2008 to 2011. He\'s also trained in EFT, the Sedona Method, somatic processing techniques, and has developed his own set of emotional care practices, including The Flow Method, A-L-I Emotional Healing Approach, and Somatic Awareness and Release.
