Therapy for Avoidant Attachment in NYC
Therapy for avoidant attachment with Dr. Rose Miller, PhD, in person in NYC or virtually across New York State.
What avoidant attachment looks like
When someone gets close, you start to feel trapped or pick them apart, even if they’re great on paper.
What’s underneath
Underneath the independence is usually a fear of being engulfed, disappointed, or let down if you let someone in.
How I work with avoidant attachment
We use relational and psychodynamic work to understand the pattern’s roots, and therapy itself becomes a safe place to practice being emotionally close.
What changes
You build relationships that feel both close and free, without having to choose.
How do people with avoidant attachment usually end up in therapy?
Often after a pattern becomes impossible to ignore: relationships ending the same way, a partner pointing it out, or a growing feeling of loneliness.
