Attachment-based Therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy is a therapeutic approach that focuses on the way our earliest relationships, especially with caregivers, shape how we connect with others throughout life. Our “attachment style” influences how safe, secure, and valued we feel in relationships, and it can impact self-esteem, trust, and emotional well-being.

When attachment wounds occur due to neglect, loss, trauma, or inconsistent caregiving, people may struggle with forming healthy bonds as adults. Attachment-Based Therapy helps repair these wounds by creating a safe, supportive environment where new, healthier patterns of connection can develop.

How Does Attachment-Based Therapy Work?

Attachment-Based Therapy emphasizes the importance of secure relationships, both past and present. In the therapeutic space, the client and therapist work together to:

• Explore how early attachment experiences shaped current relationship patterns.

• Identify insecure attachment styles, such as anxious, avoidant, or disorganized.

• Process unresolved emotions from childhood or past relationships.

• Strengthen the capacity for trust, closeness, and vulnerability.

• Develop new ways of relating that promote emotional security and resilience.

The therapist provides a consistent, non-judgmental presence, which allows clients to safely explore painful experiences and begin building a sense of safety in relationships again.

What Can Attachment-Based Therapy Help With?

Attachment-Based Therapy is especially effective for individuals who struggle with relationships, trust, or emotional closeness. It can help with:

• Relationship difficulties (romantic, family, or friendships)
