If you frequently find yourself wondering, "do I have anxious attachment?," you are likely familiar with the "gut punch" of fearing abandonment or the desperate need for constant reassurance. For many, the roots of these feelings run deep, as childhood trauma causes anxious attachment when early caregiving is inconsistent, unpredictable, or cold. While traditional therapy looks for a "secure base" in others, Internal Family Systems for anxious attachment offers a shift, teaching you to become your own primary attachment figure through your core Self.
