You may be approaching therapy thinking that there’s something wrong with you, or that you are a problem. Perhaps there are parts of you or qualities within you that you wish you could embody, but something inside keeps getting in the way. I do not believe there is anything wrong with you, or that you are a problem that needs fixing. I view human development as a process that occurs spontaneously under supportive conditions. For example, when you see a plant that looks unwell, we don’t conclude that the plant is “no good” and throw it out. Rather, we shift the internal and external conditions to support the plant in thriving.

Are you feeling stuck and not understanding why you cannot implement the change you want to bring to your life? Do you tell yourself you should know better and feel discouraged when you cannot “fix” yourself on your own? This is because working on ourselves is more complex than it appears. The clues about what needs attention in our life are often not found in what we already know consciously but in the deeper layers of our unconscious - e.g. arising as dream images or overwhelming emotions. Working from a holistic psychodynamic perspective helps understand what these clues mean and what constructive change may look like for you.

Attachment-based Counsellors
Is attachment-based therapy the same as attachment therapy?
Attachment-based therapy may be confused with what is called “attachment therapy” (sometimes called “holding therapy”), a discredited and dangerous approach to treating children with attachment disorders, autism, or other mental health concerns. Attachment therapy—not attachment-based therapy—may involve restraining a child, forcing eye contact, and other coercive or abusive techniques. None of these practices are used in attachment-based therapy and the two modalities are in no way related.
What should I expect from attachment-based therapy?
Attachment-based therapy is based on attachment theory, which posits that children’s early relationships with their caregivers strongly influence their ability to navigate the world later in life. Thus, adults who seek attachment-based therapy should expect to deeply explore their childhood, identifying the dynamics or experiences that disrupted their attachment and the steps necessary to overcome challenges that arose as a result. Parents and children should expect to explore the possible factors that disrupted the parent-child relationship and work toward restoring trust and connection.
How long does attachment-based therapy last?
Certain forms of attachment-based therapy, especially those designed for parents and children, last for a set number of sessions; for example, Attachment and Biobehavioral Catch-Up, a specific attachment-based approach for young children who have undergone early adversity, unfolds over 10 one-hour sessions. When attachment-based therapy is practiced on adults or combined with other modalities, it may not last a specific length of time; clients may wish to ask prospective therapists how long they expect treatment to take.
Does attachment-based therapy work?
Most of the research on attachment-based therapy focuses on children and adolescents. Some of this research shows a positive effect, especially for attachment-based family therapy (ABFT). Other studies, however, have found that attachment-based therapy is no more effective than other approaches to childhood depression, anxiety, or suicidality. Less is known about the therapy’s efficacy on adult populations.
