Do you find yourself running the other way when a person wants to get close to you? Do you feel worried that your friends, partner, or family are going to abandon you? Do you find yourself striving for the approval or acceptance of others, but even when you receive it, you still feel distrustful? These experiences might be rooted in your attachment style, and we know how to help!

Who We Help

What is attachment, anyways? 

There are four different attachment styles:

  • Secure
  • Anxious-preoccupied
  • Dismissive-avoidant
  • Fearful-avoidant

Attachments styles inform the way we relate to others, and shows up in all of our relationships; with friendships, bosses, siblings, parents, and more.

Our attachment styles are created by our relationship with our primary caregivers and impact the way we feel, think, and respond in all types of relationships. Our bodies and minds registered if we felt safe, nurtured, and had our physical and emotional needs met while we were growing up.

Why does my attachment style matter today?

Awareness is the starting point. If you have ever had a friend cancels plans on you, and you assume it is because you are unworthy of care, and start to think you are a bad friend, your attachment wounds may be triggered. Working with our attachment therapists will help you know when you are bring triggered, and how to handle that experience to maintain health relationships.
