Attachment-Based Therapy

What This Approach Is

​

Attachment-based therapy focuses on how your early relationships shaped your emotional world — your patterns, defenses, longings, triggers, and ways of relating. It helps you understand why you react the way you do and how to shift those patterns.

This approach works by exploring your emotional rhythms, relational experiences, and the beliefs you carry about connection and safety. It brings clarity and compassion to the places that feel charged, protective, or vulnerable.

People choose this work because they’re ready for healthier relationships — with themselves first, and then with others.

​

Who This Approach Helps

​

• Anxious, avoidant, or mixed attachment tendencies

• Relationship conflict or disconnect

• Loneliness or difficulty opening up

• Emotional sensitivity or overwhelm

• Patterns you repeat despite trying to “outgrow” them

• Fear of abandonment or closeness

 

What Sessions Focused on This Approach Look Like

​

I bring a grounded, attuned presence that helps your nervous system feel safer. Together, we explore the emotional patterns that show up in your relationships and why. This is gentle, honest work — not blaming, not pathologizing.

Sessions may include reflection, noticing body cues, exploring relational dynamics, and understanding the developmental roots of certain reactions. I weave attachment theory into everything I do, alongside IFS, mindfulness, and somatic awareness.
