EMDR for Attachment Wounds

Are you struggling with the effects of attachment wounds?

Right now, you may be experiencing:

 

  • Persistent difficulties forming or maintaining secure, trusting relationships
  • An intense fear of abandonment or, conversely, a fear of intimacy and closeness
  • Patterns of anxious attachment (needing constant reassurance, jealousy) or avoidant attachment (emotional distance, discomfort with vulnerability)
  • Difficulty regulating your emotions, especially within relationships
  • A deep sense of insecurity or feeling fundamentally unlovable
  • Challenges trusting others or relying on them for support
  • Repeating unhealthy relationship dynamics from your childhood in your adult life

You're realizing that your attachment wounds are getting in the way of your life:

  • Your romantic relationships are often fraught with conflict, insecurity, or emotional distance
  • You struggle to build deep, meaningful friendships or feel truly connected to others
  • Your interactions with colleagues or authority figures might be impacted by underlying trust issues or fears
  • You feel lonely and isolated, even when surrounded by people
  • Your self-esteem is heavily dependent on external validation or relationship status
  • Parenting might be challenging as your own attachment patterns get triggered

You’re wondering…

  • Why do I keep ending up in the same kinds of difficult relationships?
  • Can I ever feel truly secure and loved in a relationship?
  • How did my early experiences with caregivers shape my adult relationships?
  • Is it possible to change my attachment style?
  • Will I always be afraid of getting hurt or abandoned?
  • How can EMDR help with something as fundamental as attachment?

You’re longing for…

  • Secure, fulfilling relationships built on trust, mutual respect, and emotional intimacy.
  • The ability to feel safe and confident within relationships, without constant anxiety or avoidance.
  • A stronger sense of self-worth that isn’t dependent on others’ approval.
  • Emotional regulation skills to navigate the ups and downs of relationships healthily.
  • Healing from the pain of past relational hurts and betrayals.
  • The capacity for vulnerability and authentic connection.
