Attachment and Parenting

Counseling for Attachment Styles and Parenting Experiences

We all have profound needs for safety, belonging, acceptance, and value by others. The patterns we establish to get these needs met begin to form as we are infants in response to our interactions with our caregivers and the world around us. These patterns are played out repeatedly in our closest relationships, childhood, and adulthood. Certain patterns bring a sense of safety, confidence, and well-being into our lives and relationships, while others can lead to pain, confusion, and unfulfilled needs and expectations.

Family and Relationship Issues

We carry our own acquired attachment patterns into each of our relationships as adults. Nowhere is this more evident than in our relationships with our children. Although attachment patterns are deeply rooted, they are not fixed attributes that we have no control over. With education, awareness, and appropriate intervention, you can choose to interact in more healthy and secure ways with your children than what may have been taught to you.

How We Can Help

We work with parents, helping them become aware of their attachment patterns and how these patterns show up in their parenting. We teach them how to recognize and meet the attachment needs of their children and strengthen these relationships. In doing this, they become more empowered to build healthy, secure foundations for and with their children. Call or text us today at 385-220-0770 for a free 15-minute consultation, so we can determine how we can help you start to build a more secure and joyful relationship with your child.

Improve your parenting, come to terms with your upbringing, and rearrange your relationships with others with help from our team. Call us at 385-220-0770.
