Heal and grow with attachment therapy at Harbor
Often, people might have memories of experiences from childhood that stay with them long past the event. Developing various coping mechanisms makes past trauma very difficult to live with. Attachment therapy – based on attachment theory – is designed to help clients understand how early childhood experiences have influenced their ability to form bonds and relationships into adulthood.
By examining these formative years, our world-leading team of psychologists and therapists can then guide clients through a comprehensive, curated healing process that aims to address the root cause that is manifesting itself as depression, anxiety, attachment disorders, other mental health conditions or things like substance dependencies.
Our approach
What to expect from attachment therapy
Attachment therapy works by helping you connect with your inner child – particularly the aspect that was wounded or traumatised – and ‘re-parent’ yourself with love and acceptance. Once you achieve this, you can then take steps to be more independent, and release the need for external fulfilment to fuel your sense of purpose. These sessions follow a structure of:
- Reflecting on your childhood experiences and relationships with primary caregivers.
- Being guided through processing these past emotions and experiences in a safe, private environment.
- Addressing current relationships to overcome negative behaviours and patterns.
- Engaging in optional group or couple-therapy sessions as needed.
How it works
How attachment therapy can help you
Feelings of insecurity or a lack of self-esteem and confidence that stem from a fear of abandonment or absence of self-worth are rooted in your childhood experiences. Many of our emotional challenges stem from the subconscious trying to deal with unresolved childhood experiences. Attachment therapy can help you:
- Resolve feelings of insecurity, low self-esteem, and lack of confidence.
- Gain control over past traumas and interact with these memories in a healthier way.
- Build healthier relationships and ease feelings of anxiety or fear of abandonment.
- Develop self-love and a sense of independence, reducing reliance on others for happiness
