Anxious Attachment Healing: Stop Overthinking & Fear of Abandonment


Listen Later

Many relationship struggles come from anxious attachment patterns that people often don’t realize they have. In this conversation, trauma informed somatic coach Valerie Rubin joins nervous system expert Mitch Webb to explain how anxious attachment healing can transform the way we experience love, connection, and emotional safety.

If you often overthink in relationships, seek reassurance, or fear abandonment, these can be signs of anxious attachment. Understanding anxious attachment healing helps reduce relationship anxiety and build healthier emotional connections.

Valerie explains how anxious attachment forms through trauma, childhood experiences, and nervous system dysregulation. Through anxious attachment healing, nervous system regulation, and somatic therapy, it becomes possible to move from anxious attachment to secure attachment and create deeper emotional safety in relationships.
