attachment therapy
You want to understand why you keep repeating the same patterns in your romantic relationships that leave you feeling unfulfilled and hurt. You notice a disconnect between how you want to show up in relationships and how you feel when you get close to someone.
You struggle with fear of rejection, fear of intimacy, lack of trust, or setting boundaries. You want to understand where your attachment patterns come from so you can heal and experience deeper emotional connection to others. You might be familiar with attachment theory and want to understand where you fall on the spectrum of anxious, avoidant, or disorganized attachment.
IFS is wonderfully compatible with attachment theory, and through this lens, we’ll explore the anxious, avoidant, or disorganized parts of you. By understanding the good intentions of these parts, we’ll get to the root of the attachment wounds that were formed in childhood and help them to unburden, allowing you to feel more present, trusting, and confident in your relationship with yourself and with others.
Common reasons for seeking ATTACHMENT therapy include:
Intellectually understanding your attachment patterns but struggling to affect change
Finding yourself repeating the same frustrating patterns in romantic relationships
Noticing similarities between your relationship dynamics with your primary caregivers and the partners you seek out
Fearing closeness, rejection, and/or vulnerability
Struggling to connect to your feelings, trust others, or set healthy boundaries
