Understanding Attachment & Relational Trauma

Being let down or hurt by others can feel like a thousand tiny papercuts—small but deeply impactful.

​

Growing up in a home where love felt unpredictable, criticism was common, or your needs were overlooked can leave lasting attachment wounds. These painful experiences can make it hard to trust, set boundaries, or feel secure in relationships, keeping you emotionally stuck in patterns that no longer serve you.

​

Healing from attachment injuries means processing these hidden pains, rebuilding trust (in yourself and others), and fostering stronger, more fulfilling connections.

​

Let’s talk about how EMDR, IFS parts work, and relational therapy can help you heal and create the relationships you deserve.

Why Do We Repeat Unhealthy Patterns?

If you’re struggling with the pain of relational hurt, you’re not alone.

 

I specialize in working with adult children of alcoholics, adults from difficult childhoods, and those carrying attachment wounds and relational trauma.

 

These experiences can deeply impact your life and relationships, often in ways you may not even realize.

 

​Relational wounds often stem from early life experiences of hurt, instability, or unmet emotional needs, leaving lasting effects on how you see yourself and connect with others.

 

​​Sometimes, these wounds aren’t obvious. They can come from subtle, indirect messages—that you’re a burden, too much, or not good enough.

 

Over time, your brain adapts to protect you from further hurt by creating distance, staying on guard, or fearing rejection, making relationships feel harder than they should.

How Therapy Can Help Break the Cycle

At Denver Attachment Therapy, I specialize in helping adult children of alcoholics and those from difficult childhoods heal the wounds that still impact their present.

​

Using EMDR, IFS Parts Work, and Attachment Theory, we go beyond surface-level talk therapy to address the deep emotional imprints from your past.

​

  • EMDR processes unresolved childhood trauma, releasing its hold on your present.

​

  • IFS Parts Work fosters self-compassion by healing the wounded inner parts still carrying past pain.

​

  • Attachment Theory helps you break unhealthy relationship patterns and build deeper, more secure connections.

​

Together, these approaches help you rewire emotional responses, release past pain, and create the fulfilling relationships you deserve.
