What does relational and attachment therapy look like?

Create a lasting and trusting relationship with vulnerability.

You often find yourself getting into arguments or disagreements you had no intention of getting into. You may find yourself frequently misunderstood and you feel as though it is easy for people to paint you in a negative light. Anxiety levels shoot to a level of 12/10 when you feel that someone is mad or upset with you. You tend to have more of a people-pleasing complex in order to appease those around you in an effort to not rock the boat. Alternatively, you may shut down people’s attempts of getting close to you out of fear that they will just hurt you and leave. You may panic when you find yourself in an emotionally close situation and look for ways to leave immediately.

Starting therapy to deal with relational and attachment issues means addressing the little voice in your head that assumes the worst in people, initiates panic when things aren’t “just right,” and places internal value on external elements. You’ll work to transform your internal dialogue that creates a safe space to sit in discomfort without sacrificing self.
