Virtual Therapy for Women With Attachment Wounds Across Canada

Building a secure home within yourself

The Weight of Attachment Wounds

What starts as the lonely pressure of having to be your only support systems becomes the exhausting cycle of chasing connection, then feeling smothered by it. When attachment wounds take the lead, you can find yourself in loops with people who can’t (or won’t) meet you halfway. This exhaustion doesn’t just come from what we are doing but also from the constant pressure to be self-sufficient.

A Different Way to Live

Healing from attachment wounds isn’t about changing who you are. It’s about unlearning the patterns that no longer serve you. Imagine waking up feeling secure instead of shaky. Imagine a day when your worth is consistent rather than dependent on someone else.

How We Work Together

In session we get curious about your life experience which shaped your attachment style. We will navigate past and present wounds with a compassionate lens. Building corrective experiences within the therapy space guides you toward a secure attachment.

The Return to you

Ultimately, this process is about recovering your ability to trust yourself and others. With attachment wounds no longer in charge, you don’t just feel better but live differently. You move through your days with more security and less scrutiny.

Your Questions, Answered

  • Absolutely! Attachment styles are not fixed traits they are learned strategies. In therapy with me, you learn to provide safety for yourself (the kind you may have missed growing up), this naturally changes how you interact with everyone else.

  • ‍ We tend to gravitate towards what feels familiar even if it’s painful. Therapy helps you begin to recognize these patterns in real time and shift your focus from finding the right person to becoming the right person for yourself.

  • Needy is a label for an unmet need (or crossed boundary). Your nervous system is looking for safety. Therapy helps you notice and balance your needs. We work at building the secure anchor to which helps you feel safe asking for either space or closeness without it feeling like a crisis.

  • Choosing a therapist you vibe with is the most important therapy decision you will make - that is why Anchor & Align offers FREE 15 minute consultations. These consults are a collaborative conversation where your therapist will share their approach and how sessions work. You will have an opportunity to share as much (or as little) as you’d like, ask any questions you have and decide if it’s a good fit. From there, you can book a 50-minute session to begin your healing journey.
