Attachment focused therapy
Attachment is the core of what makes humans, humans. We are designed to live in harmony and community and rely on others. When we experience attachment trauma at a young age, we may find ourselves fearful, anxious, or avoidant in relationships. I’m here to help you rebuild a secure relationship with yourself so that you can more easily connect with others.
About attachment focused therapy
Attachment-focused therapy is deeply relational. We will focus on creating a secure therapeutic connection between us before we navigate deeply held beliefs or past trauma. It is my belief that attachment styles are fluid in nature - meaning that we all have the capacity to shift the way we relate to ourselves and others throughout our lifetime.
Benefits of Attachment focused therapy
fosters compassion for your learned relational patterns
Together we will explore your current attachment style in a compassionate, non-judgemental way. We will explore factors such as familial dynamics, childhood experiences, cultural learnings, and past trauma that will help explain your attachment style.
builds a more secure attachment with yourself
We will work towards expanding nervous system capacity to enable a more secure relationship with self and others by processing past trauma, and forming a relationship with mind, body and spirit.
honors that therapy is highly relational
Attachment theory honors that the therapeutic relationship is paramount for healing. We will work on building trust with each other and move at a pace that is comfortable for you.
acknowledges that for many people, community is a key to healing
Attachment therapy honors that people cannot heal in isolation. I will support you to connect with your community spaces, other healers, and build relationships in ways that are accessible and meaningful for you. I also understand that the world we live in can feel quite isolating and overwhelming. We will hold space to process the difficulties of community building as well.
