Attachment theory suggests that the relationships and bonds we form with our caregivers during childhood are both significant and impactful to our lives. Depending on the health of these relationships, we form attachment styles such as anxious, ambivalent, avoidant, disorganized or healthy and secure attachment.
An attachment theory trained therapist will provide a focused exploration of how early life experiences and relationships impact your current ability to form and maintain healthy connections with others.
Throughout the counseling process at Refuge, you will work on understanding and modifying these attachment styles. This may involve learning to better regulate emotions, improve communication skills, and build trust in relationships. Ultimately, the goal is to help you develop healthier ways of relating to others, fostering more stable and fulfilling relationships.
