Break Free from Unhealthy Relationship Patterns & Build Secure Connections

Do you feel like you’re always the one holding relationships together—over-explaining, over-giving, or walking on eggshells to keep the peace? Maybe you struggle with feeling unseen, not enough, or afraid of being abandoned. Or perhaps you push people away, keeping your walls up because vulnerability feels too risky. These patterns didn’t come out of nowhere. They were shaped by early experiences, but they don’t have to define your future.

At Soar Therapy & Integrated Wellness, we help clients untangle the deep-rooted patterns of attachment that keep them stuck in unhealthy cycles. Through Attachment Therapy, you’ll explore how early relationships shaped your ability to trust, set boundaries, and feel secure—while learning how to build healthier, more fulfilling connections.

What Does Attachment Trauma Look Like?

Unhealthy attachment patterns can show up in many ways:

  • People-Pleasing & Over-Accommodating – Feeling responsible for others’ emotions, struggling to say no, and fearing rejection.
  • Clinginess & Fear of Abandonment – Seeking constant reassurance, feeling anxious when someone pulls away, or losing yourself in relationships.
  • Emotional Avoidance & Fear of Intimacy – Shutting down, struggling to express feelings, or distancing yourself when relationships get too close.
  • Low Self-Worth & Insecurity – Feeling unlovable, unworthy, or like you have to earn love by being “perfect” or useful.

How Attachment Therapy Can Help

Attachment-based therapy aims to rebuild trust, enhance emotional regulation, and promote secure relationships. At Soar Therapy & Integrated Wellness, our approach includes:

  • Developing Self-Awareness: Identifying and challenging unhelpful thought patterns and beliefs about yourself and others.
  • Building Healthy Relationship Skills: Learning to communicate effectively, set boundaries, and foster intimacy without fear.
  • Integrating Mind and Body: Incorporating holistic practices, such as mindfulness and bodywork, to address the physical manifestations of attachment-related stress.
