psychotherapy for all things love, losses, & relationships
All you need is love
Perhaps, the better phrase is, “All you need is healthy and secure attachment.” If you are reading this, chances are like many you need to make some change in your life, and that change may need to be in your interpersonal life.
The power of an emotional attachment to another being is profound and first starts in the early years with the primary caregiver. Later in life, this same connection is transferred to another person.
The quality of the primary attachment is poetic in its ability to affect personal wellness.
Ruptures in our primary attachment relationship can have an overwhelming impact on our self-worth and sense of being , be it neglect and abuse in childhood or infidelity and violence in adulthood.
Using a complementary mix of therapeutic modalities that includes psychodynamic psychotherapy, I help my clients gain insight into who they are so that they can live a life of authenticity and with intention.
