Attachment & Relationship Therapy In California

How you learned to give and receive love in childhood directly shapes how you experience relationships today.

The Role Of Attachment In Relationships

Attachment styles are the blueprint for how we connect, trust and feel safe with others. If your early caregiver was nurturing and responsive, you likely developed a sense of security in relationships. But if your caregiver was neglectful, inconsistent, narcissistic or emotionally unavailable, your nervous system learned a different lesson: love means self-abandonment, over-functioning or constant vigilance.

As an attachment-focused therapist, I help you uncover those early imprints, connect the dots to your current relational patterns and build healthier ways of relating - both with yourself and with others. Love languages are one accessible entry point here; when we explore the ways you naturally give and receive love, it often reveals the attachment wiring beneath the surface.

You May Notice...

  • Repeating unhealthy relationship patterns despite wanting something different

  • Attracting partners who dismiss, avoid or gaslight your needs

  • Difficulty trusting, opening up or maintaining closeness

  • Feeling “too much” or “not enough” in relationships

  • A strong fear of abandonment or being alone

  • Conflict that escalates quickly or never seems to resolve

  • Struggles to balance independence and intimacy

  • Misunderstandings around love languages and how you express care

A Pathway To Relational Healing

Healing attachment wounds means going back to the original blueprint and rewriting it with awareness, compassion and self-trust. Together, we’ll explore how your early experiences shaped your sense of worthiness and your expectations of love. By naming these patterns and experimenting with new ways of relating, you’ll gain both insight and tools to create more secure, fulfilling relationships.

My Approach

My work with attachment and relationships is both insight-oriented and practical:

  • Exploring your attachment history and how it shaped your relational patterns

  • Identifying triggers and cycles that show up in partnerships, friendships or family dynamics

  • Learning about love languages as a playful yet powerful tool to improve connection

  • Healing self-worth wounds that make it hard to set boundaries or ask for what you need

  • Practicing new communication skills that foster safety, trust and intimacy

  • Supporting couples to move from reactive cycles into more secure, connected bonds

Through This Work You Can...

  • Understand your attachment style and how it influences your relationships

  • Break free from repeating painful dynamics

  • Strengthen your ability to trust, set boundaries, and receive love

  • Learn to communicate your needs clearly and respectfully

  • Foster healthier, more secure connections with partners, friends, and family

  • Cultivate a deeper sense of self-love and worthiness

You Are Meant For Secure Love

Your past does not define your capacity for love. Healing attachment wounds allows you to step into relationships that are safe, reciprocal, and nourishing — the kind of love you were always worthy of.
