Separation Anxiety & Relationship Attachment

Separation anxiety can have overwhelming consequences in relationships for those who suffer from this crippling emotion. When faced with a partner leaving home for long or short periods of time, the sufferer can experience an array of anxieties from panic, fear, loss, distrust, aloneness and insecurity; Often these insecure feelings are experienced because we fail to get our needs met within the relationship leaving us feeling that we are unlovable. These sessions will help you to love without losing yourself, gain self understanding and reverse self abandonment.

Often within these anxieties, there is an obsessive-compulsive element when the sufferer phones, texts or emails in order to locate their attachment figure and becomes overwhelmed by panic if they fail to get in contact immediately. Separation anxiety can trigger attachment issues very early in the relationship but many often hide it from their partner.

How can The Relationship Breakthrough Session help?

Helen Mia Harris’ Relationship Breakthrough Sessions can be a life changing aid in helping individuals or couples work through this very painful experience. Helen’s programme focuses on restoring healthy self-esteem and security by working towards autonomy and independence.

Helen utilises CBT (cognitive behavioural therapy) and Kaizen Counselling and Coaching in her specialist breakthrough sessions by addressing the core negative thinking patterns and self beliefs that lead to separation anxiety and insecurity.

Individuals who complete the Relationship Breakthrough Sessions come through it feeling emotionally liberated and find an internal strength in feeling secure within themselves and their own lives, and knowing this creates the possibility of transformation and future change.


NB. These sessions are not to maintain the relationship nor to separate the couple, but to help each individual move away from, indifference, discord and disappointment towards a sense of emotional balance. Helen works with integrity and respect for all individuals concerned.
