Adult Attachment Therapy Newcastle

Adult Attachement Difficulties Newcastle

Man explaining issues to therapist

Attachment patterns formed in childhood often shape how we relate to others throughout life.

For some adults, unresolved attachment issues can lead to difficulties in maintaining healthy, fulfilling relationships and managing emotions effectively.

Here at Newcastle Psychologist & Counselling, our experienced therapists and psychologists offer specialised attachment therapy for adults.

We provide a compassionate and supportive space to explore and address attachment difficulties, fostering personal growth and healthier connections.

Signs of Attachment Difficulties in Adults

Attachment difficulties in adulthood can manifest in a variety of ways.

Often, difficulties become known during relationship difficulties, where people might act out repeated patterns such as avoidance, rejection, or anxiety (often seen as becoming attached too quickly) around relationships.

Common signs may include:

  • Difficulty trusting others or fears of betrayal
  • Struggles with emotional intimacy and vulnerability
  • A tendency to push others away or withdraw emotionally
  • Fear of abandonment or intense clinginess in relationships
  • Cycles of unhealthy or toxic relationships
  • Low self-esteem or difficulties in expressing needs
  • Avoidance of close relationships or emotional detachment
  • Persistent feelings of loneliness or dissatisfaction, even when in a relationship

Attachment difficulties can often stem from early experiences as a child, such as inconsistent caregiving, trauma, or relationship disruptions during childhood.  They can also be reinforced by repeated relationship patterns during adulthood.
