Attachment and Resilience: The Power of One: Dr. Erica Liu Wollin at TEDxHongKong 2013
 

Erica Wollin

Currently based in Hong Kong, Dr. Erica Liu Wollin is a board-licensed psychologist in California and a registered psychologist in Hong Kong. She has been a clinical supervisor for the doctoral program at Alliant International University/City University of Hong Kong since 2007. Trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), an effective treatment for traumas and phobias, Dr. Wollin holds counseling interests in therapy, adoption and attachment, grief and loss, eating disorders, and mental health. Raised in the US, Dr. Wollin received her Psy.D. and M.A. in Clinical Psychology from Wheaton College. Dr. Wollin will be speaking about the power of attachment, which is our `connection with early caregivers. With this year’s theme revolving around relationships, her discussion will focus on the psychological side of human relationships, for when attachment does not occur effectively, a number of challenges can arise. She will also discuss the protective factors which nurture human resilience in the face of adversity, including the power of the presence of one who cares about us.
