Attachment Therapy In Los Angeles, California

Attachment therapy is a form of therapy that focuses on building or repairing the attachment relationship within the therapy room.

The theory behind attachment therapy is that a strong, secure attachment between people is essential for healthy development, and that when this attachment is disrupted throughout childhood, it can have serious consequences for the person’s emotional and social well-being.

Since many people who come to therapy have had attachment ruptures throughout their childhood, therapy becomes a safe place to repair some of the ruptured relationships, make sense of and grieve some of the ruptures as well as experience a new way of connecting and being in relationship with someone.

This safety and connection allows for a deep healing to happen, which increases confidence, sense of identity, social skills, cognitive dissonance, emotional regulation and empathy.
