Ep 155: Attachment Theory, Reparenting and Earned Secure Attachment

Written By Helena Bradbury

Want your question answered on the podcast?

In this episode Cath starts to speak about some of the key points of attachment theory, why this is important for us as adults and starting to cultivate a sense of being fully self supporting of ourselves. With Reparenting we are working to cultivate a relationship with all our selves and to tend gently to these parts. She uses an example of a boundary from her own life to demonstrate self protection (even if others disagree).
