About Psychotherapy
This approach to psychotherapy focuses on the attachments people make early in life and how these attachments influence the kinds of relationships people form as they mature and develop. If relationships go wrong in childhood, in particular if a child's attachment to its principle carer is broken or unsatisfactory, it is often not possible to feel secure. As a result, ways are found of surviving in a frightening world and these tools are used to help with future relationships. But often the fears and insecurities of childhood can be experienced again in adulthood, leading to feelings of unhappiness, and painful and unsafe relationships.
Attachment-based therapy gives people the opportunity to experience, perhaps for the first time in their lives, a relationship where it feels safe enough to explore their fears and mourn past losses.
A psychoanalytic approach is a way of communicating which helps to make people more consciously aware of why they feel a certain way and how, in the past and present, important persons in their lives have affected them.
As the therapy progresses and the client develops a trusting relationship with their therapist, they will be able more easily, to explore their fears and find ways of understanding them. This understanding, in turn, can make it easier for people to form healthier relationships and help them feel more secure and in control of their lives.
