Attachment Style
Therapy New Jersey
Anxious & Avoidant Repair
A
You want closeness more than anything. And the moment someone gets close, something in you prepares for the worst.
Maybe you grip. Maybe you flee. Maybe you oscillate between both — desperate for love and terrified of it in the same breath. These are not character flaws. This is anxious attachment, avoidant attachment, or the particularly exhausting dance of fearful avoidant and they all trace back to the same place: early relationships that taught your nervous system that love is not safe.
​
The patterns repeat because they are not a thinking problem. They live in the body. They live in the automatic, lightning-fast responses that fire before your rational mind has a chance to intervene. 'Why do I keep doing this?' is the right question and it deserves a real answer.
​
Attachment repair work takes you to the origin of these patterns. We meet them there with compassion, not judgment and we gradually, carefully, rewire what love is allowed to feel like. Secure attachment is not something you either have or you don't. It is something you earn, through exactly the kind of work we do together.
