Relationships & Attachment

Relationships are an integral part of our lives and as humans we have an innate need for connection. At the same time, relationships are often a source of intense pain, fear, and stress. Your own parents may not have been what you needed them to be. Everyone’s relational patterns are different and through an exploration of your own comfort and relationship needs and their origins, we may identify old patterns that cause harm and places to create boundaries so that you can feel safe and enjoy relationships fully. Our couples therapists are trained in dynamic and CBT techniques including dynamic, EFT (emotion focused therapy), IFS (internal family systems) and attachment theory. We work with different attachment styles, attachment wounds, and personality disorders.
