The Manuscript

From fragmented attachment to secure relational living

Dr. Donetta Quinones spent years developing the TAMI Model — Trauma-informed Attachment Moral Identity. It's the clinical framework at the center of Wholeness in Pieces, and it's unlike anything else in the trauma education space.

The course weaves together attachment theory, moral identity development, nervous system science, and Scripture — showing how fragmented attachment creates the relational patterns that follow us through marriages, friendships, parenting, and faith communities.

Wholeness in Pieces
From Fragmented Attachment to Secure Relationship
Dr. Donetta Quinones, PhD, LPC, LMHC

The clinical backbone of everything Dr. Quinones teaches

TAMI — Trauma-informed Attachment Moral Identity. A synthesis of attachment theory, moral identity development, and nervous system regulation science — integrated with biblical theology to address the full scope of relational fragmentation.

Component 01

Trauma Recognition

Identifying the formative relational wounds that created fragmented attachment patterns and the defenses built to survive them.

Component 02

Attachment Architecture

Understanding how attachment styles form, adapt, and show up in adult relationships — and how they can be reshaped with sustained safety.

Component 03

Moral Identity Integration

Examining how trauma distorts self-concept and moral reasoning — and rebuilding identity from a secure, grace-rooted foundation.

Component 04

Nervous System Regulation

Somatic tools for staying regulated under relational stress — grounding techniques, window of tolerance work, and somatic resourcing.

Component 05

Relational Repair Skills

Practical skills for honest communication, genuine accountability, boundaried intimacy, and the slow work of trust restoration.

Component 06

Faith Integration

Integrating the TAMI arc with Scripture and covenant theology — not spiritual bypass, but genuine theological anchoring for healing.

The full arc: from fragmentation to wholeness

Every module builds on the last — a structured clinical and theological journey through the TAMI Model with reflection prompts, nervous system exercises, and a 200-page downloadable workbook.
