Conflict Is Not The Enemy

A workshop on nervous systems, attachment, and the moments children's conflict brings out in the adults around them. Available as a focused introduction or a full-day immersion.

Every version of this workshop is built around the same core idea: peace is not created by removing conflict, it is created by staying present and regulated when two wills meet. What changes between formats is how deep we go, and how much practice time you get alongside the theory.

Introductory Session

2-Hour Workshop

A focused introduction, ideal for a staff meeting or a first taste
  • The Iceberg model, what's really driving a behaviour beneath what you can see
  • The Five-Step Regulation Protocol, a practical sequence for the moment itself
  • An introduction to the Five Doors, five different adult responses to the same conflict
  • Time for questions and initial reflection
Best for: teams wanting a solid grounding in the core ideas, or a taste of the full-day work before committing to more.

Most Immersive
Full-Day Immersion

6-Hour Workshop

A complete day of theory, practice, and reflection
  • The Iceberg model, explored in full depth with real scenarios
  • The Five-Step Regulation Protocol, practiced, not just explained
  • The Five Doors framework, including where each response leads a child six months and ten years on
  • What might be driving your own responses, attachment patterns and core wounds beneath the door you tend to reach for
  • Guided practice and small-group reflection time throughout the day
Best for: educators and teams ready to go beneath the surface, not just learn the model but actually practice living it.

Donna is a relationship facilitator working at the edge of attachment theory, nervous system science, and everyday life with children. She trained with Pennie Brownlee as a parent and infant facilitator, is nine years into a ten-year Pikler Pedagogue qualification, and is a Circle of Security facilitator, a Stuart Shanker Self-Reg facilitator, and a Donna Berry Interplay facilitator.
