Their team of skilled counselors works closely with you to understand the specific patterns of attachment that may be causing difficulties in your interactions with others. Through one-on-one sessions, they create a safe and trusting environment where you can explore your early life experiences and how they impact your current relationships. The counselors guide you in developing strategies to form more secure and positive connections, while also helping you navigate the emotions and behaviors associated with attachment challenges. With a focus on building trust and emotional resilience, NI Counselling ensures that you receive the care and support needed to foster stronger, more fulfilling relationships.
What is Attachment Disorder?
Attachment disorders are conditions where individuals have difficulty forming healthy emotional bonds and relationships with others. These disorders often stem from inadequate caregiving during early childhood, which disrupts the development of secure attachment. The two main types of attachment disorders recognised are Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD) and Disinhibited Social Engagement Disorder (DSED). Attachment disorders are complex psychological conditions that emerge when an individual, typically a child, has experienced disrupted, inconsistent, or traumatic caregiving. These conditions manifest as difficulties in forming secure, healthy emotional bonds with others.
Causes of Attachment Disorder?
Attachment disorders typically arise from severe neglect, abuse, or inconsistent caregiving during the early years of life. Key contributing factors include:
- Neglect: Basic needs for food, comfort, and affection are not consistently met.
- Frequent Changes in Caregivers: Multiple foster placements or changes in primary caregivers.
- Lack of Responsive Care: Caregivers are emotionally unavailable or unresponsive to the child’s needs.
- Abuse: Physical, emotional, or sexual abuse.
- Institutional Care: Being raised in an institutional setting without the opportunity for consistent, one-on-one caregiving.
