Couples Attachment Therapy Workshop: A Clinical Toolkit to Connect, Heal and Help Partners Be Secure in Love

$249.99 Standard

Unmet childhood attachment needs are driving your clients’ defensiveness, distrust, and fear …

… and the hard truth as their therapist is that until these internal wounds are addressed – no amount of work will relieve conflict or help the relationship.

But many approaches fail to address these deeper scars that sabotage connection and secure love.

That’s where Attachment-Based Compassion Therapy comes in. Because it’s a proven framework to move partners toward healthier relationships - not just with each other, but with themselves.

And now you can watch Dr. Leslie Becker-Phelps, acclaimed therapist and best-selling author of Insecure in Love and The Insecure in Love Workbook and learn to use an attachment-based compassion therapy approach for couples in just one day.

In this training, she’ll show you how you can:

  • Apply attachment theory as a powerful framework for treating couples
  • Cultivate compassionate self-awareness and other-awareness as a foundation for healing
  • Help partners break free from entrenched patterns of hurt, anger, and defensiveness
  • Address underlying insecure attachment issues to promote secure love
