Attachment + Relationship Stuff

Struggling with:

• wanting to feel happy in your relationships, but not knowing how

• not feeling safe or secure in your relationships

• a history of toxic relationships

• shitty patterns in your relationships

• no boundaries or rigid boundaries

• anxiety or a desire to run away from it all

• feeling everyone else’s feelings or no feelings at all

When you think about what you love the most in this world, you’re likely thinking of a person or people. Relationships. They are an inevitable part of being human; we are wired to depend on our relationships for survival, and the quality of our relationships deeply impact the overall quality of our lives. They can be magical, fulfilling, beautiful, and safe places to rest our souls, but they can also be stressful, exhausting, terrifying, frustrating, harmful, and lonely places that leave us feeling bad about ourselves and powerless to make changes. 

Working with an attachment-based therapist can help you to understand the ways in which your experiences with attachment figures (parents, caregivers, ex-partners, friends, etc) and other humans (school bullies, shitty coworkers, that one terrible doctor that made you feel blamed and shamed, etc) are impacting how you view yourself and how you feel in relationships with others. 

Therapy to address attachment + relationships can help you by:

-healing wounds from childhood

-disrupting harmful patterns in your relationships

-supporting healthy boundaries

-developing healthy interdependence

-changing the way you relate to yourself (and others)

-connecting you to your own values 

-building self-trust and self-compassion

-nurturing a felt sense of what it feels like to be in a safe and unconditionally loving relationship

When you start by focusing on your own healing, you will be amazed at how much power you have to change what isn’t working and create a life filled with joy and absolutely magical relationships.
