Cuando busqué la terapia por primera vez, esperaba que la terapia me ayudara a arreglar lo que estaba mal conmigo. A través de mi viaje curativo y entrenamiento profesional encontré un lugar de partida diferente. Nadie necesita ser arreglado; necesitamos volver a aprender a amarnos a nosotros mismos.

¿Sufres en silencio o tienes dificultades con tus relaciones interpersonales? Sepa que hay esperanza. Todos hemos experimentado un dolor que, si no se trata, puede mantenernos atrapados, inhibiendo nuestra capacidad para disfrutar de la vida y conectarnos genuinamente con los demás. Hay tres áreas que yo valoro mucho: los niños que han sufrido dificultades, las mujeres que tienen dificultades para atravesar las etapas de la vida y las víctimas o sobrevivientes y mujeres que han sufrido trauma por infidelidad, y traición atravez de abuso sexual, emocional o fisico.

Si tienes problemas en tu relación, estás luchando contra la soledad de los múltiples problemas que hemos enfrentado el último año (pandemia, duelo, trauma) o simplemente necesitas procesar algunas situaciones con alguien de fuera, creo que la relación terapeútica puede ser una plataforma para transformación profunda y crecimiento contínuo.

Finding a therapist can be hard, especially when you feel like no one really "gets" you. I'm hoping that's where I come in- I am a queer, autistic therapist passionate about working with other LGBTQIA+ and/or neurodivergent people that may struggle to find the right therapist for them, or who have felt unheard or invalidated by other mental health professionals. Currently, I am offering services to individuals age 12 and older, as well as families, couples, and diverse relationships.

Attachment-based Therapists

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.
