Attachment: What’s Love Got To Do With It?
Event Actions
Attachment research shows that when people fail to address childhood wounds, they end up repeating those attachment patterns into adulthood.
Overview
Preoccupied, insecure, dismissive and fearful attachment styles are correlated with mental health problems, addiction and chronic relational problems. Helping clients understand these historic patterns and creating a secure attachment in the therapeutic relationship are the keys to healing and creating healthy connections with others.
