Sommer L. Ewing, founder of the TAPE Repair™ Institute

Trauma. Attachment. Patterns. Emotional Integrity.

The TAPE Repair™ Institute

Understand the Story. Recognize the Pattern. Repair the Connection. Change What Comes Next.

Some experiences end. Their patterns don't.

TAPE Repair helps individuals, couples, parents, professionals, and organizations understand how Trauma, Attachment, Patterns, and Emotional Integrity influence the way we relate, respond, lead, parent, love, and connect.

Some experiences end. Their patterns don't.

TAPE Repair™ helps individuals, couples, parents, professionals, and organizations understand how trauma, attachment wounds, learned patterns, and emotional responses continue to influence relationships, behavior, and well-being.

This is not just therapy. It is a framework — a way of seeing yourself, your relationships, and the systems you move through with new clarity. When you understand the TAPE, you can finally begin to repair it.

The Framework

What TAPE Stands For

T

Trauma

What happened?

We help families name and understand the painful experiences that shaped them — because healing begins when we can finally say what happened without shame or fear.

A

Attachment

What happened to connection?

We address the root wounds in how family members bond, trust, and feel safe with each other — the foundation of every healthy relationship.

P

Patterns

What keeps repeating?

We identify the generational and behavioral patterns that have been passed down or developed over time — and help families break free from them.

E

Emotional Integrity

What can I/we do differently now?

We help families reconnect with honesty, vulnerability, and emotional authenticity — building the integrity needed to sustain lasting healing and trust.

Who It's For

TAPE Repair™ Pathways

The TAPE Repair™ framework meets people wherever they are — as individuals, in relationship, as parents, as professionals, and as organizations.

TAPE for Individuals & Singles

Understand how your own history of trauma, attachment, and learned patterns shapes the way you show up in every relationship — and begin to change it.

TAPE for Couples

Discover what each partner brings from their own story, how those stories collide, and how to build a relationship grounded in safety, honesty, and repair.

TAPE for Parents

Explore how your own upbringing influences your parenting — and develop the attunement, regulation, and connection your children need to thrive.

TAPE for Professionals

Equip clinicians, educators, social workers, and helping professionals with the TAPE framework to deepen their practice and protect their own well-being.

TAPE for Organizations

Transform the culture of your organization — residential programs, schools, agencies, and nonprofits — into a healing-centered ecosystem built on the TAPE framework.

Signature Experiences

Proprietary Programs Within the Institute

Each Signature Experience is an original TAPE Repair™ curriculum — designed to go deeper than a workshop and further than a single session.

Love Ready

For Individuals & Singles

A structured experience for individuals who want to understand their attachment style, heal from past relational wounds, and become truly ready for healthy love.

Fight Right

For Couples

A couples intensive that teaches partners how to argue without destroying — using TAPE principles to transform conflict into connection and repair.

Attuned Parenting

For Parents

A parenting experience rooted in attachment science — helping caregivers understand their child's emotional world and respond with presence, not just correction.

Clinician Wellness

For Professionals

A restorative experience for helping professionals — addressing vicarious trauma, compassion fatigue, and the personal TAPE that shapes how we care for others.

Organizational TAPE Repair™

For Organizations

A systemic change process for organizations ready to move beyond policy and into genuine cultural transformation — healing the system so the system can heal others.
