Inside this episode I give you a deep dive on disorganized attachment style; origins, signs, and treatment. 

As someone who lived with this attachment style for many years, I know how important it is to treat disorganized attachment. 

In today’s episode I discuss: 

  • The roots of Disorganized attachment (inconsistent and emotionally unavailable care giving during childhood) 
  • The signs of Disorganized attachment in adulthood (including:  negative views of self and others, self-sabotage, confusion in relationships, dissociation and numbing, and attraction to abusive partners.) 
  • Understanding disorganized attachment as an attachment style is more empowering than viewing it as a mental health disorder like borderline personality disorder.

If you have an insecure attachment style, you have suffered long enough. 

It’s time to attract the emotionally available partner you deserve by becoming securely attached.

In this podcast, I'll help you navigate the complexities of dating and relationships with humor, honesty, and my expert insights.

I’m a relationship coach, clinical psychologist, attachment theory expert, and the creator of the Empowered.Secure.Loved. Relationship Method.

I’m your host and modern-day Carrie Bradshaw (with an actual PhD),
