Understanding Your Attachment Style
The Path to Overcoming Unhelpful Patterns and Building Healthy, Secure Relationships
Description
From a licensed marriage and family therapist, this empathetic book is the key to achieving secure relationships with your loved ones and breaking away from painful patterns.
Our individual attachment style is a key indicator of the health of every one of our relationships. Yet few people know what their style is, much less what steps they need to take to move out of a harmful style and into one that is creates safer, healthier, and mutually beneficial relationships. Thankfully, the concept of “attachment” has been gaining steam over last decade so that “attachment theory” and its therapeutic model have entered into current conversations about mental health—and Marc Cameron has emerged as a leader in this space. The successor to How We Love, the organization created by key psychologists Milan and Kay Yerkovich, Marc Cameron builds upon the Yerkovichs' groundbreaking book about attachment theory, How We Love (over 400,000 copies sold) to show you how to identify and understand the style of attachment you developed in childhood.
In this book, Cameron thoroughly explains each attachment style and provides easy methods for you to self-identify with one style (…or multiple!). He also delivers practical steps for forming a secure attachment style, giving you the information and guidance you’re seeking to improve your inner worlds and relationships.
Written from a Christian worldview, Understanding Your Attachment Style will not only help you understand your attachment style but also guides you through overcoming barriers associated with each style so that you can enjoy the healthy, loving connections God designed.
