Infidelity Related Grief
Attachment wounds occur when we are young and unable to get our needs met regularly by our caregivers. These wounds can occur if you grow up with well-meaning, loving caregivers or if you grow up in a neglectful or abusive environment. Untreated postpartum depression, birth-related trauma, unstable living conditions, a stressful home environment, or competing demands for a caregiver’s attention can all contribute to ruptures in attachment.
Many of my clients grew up in homes that were unsafe. In attachment therapy, we focus on cultivating safety in session, using the therapeutic relationship as a chance to co-regulate your nervous system and calm the parts of you that become activated and scared. I offer a supportive, calm space where you can discuss past traumatic experiences while feeling contained and in control. Pulling from Dialectical Behavior Therapy, I will help you understand and regulate your emotions, develop coping skills to manage distress, and build more stable relationships over time. Together, we will determine what areas of your life you hope to change and tap into your resilience as you step into self-alignment. I am here as a guide as you honestly examine what will make you feel more fulfilled and at peace.
