Attachment Therapy & Relational Work
Heal Past Wounds. Build Stronger Connections.
Healing Starts Here.
Our earliest relationships shape the way we see ourselves, connect with others, and navigate the world. When these early attachments are unpredictable, painful, or lacking emotional safety, they can leave behind patterns that continue to impact relationships in adulthood.
If you find yourself struggling with trust, intimacy, conflict, or emotional regulation in relationships, you’re not alone. Whether you’ve experienced relational trauma, anxious or avoidant attachment patterns, or difficulty forming meaningful connections, healing is possible.
At Michigan Wellbeing, we specialize in attachment-based, relational therapy that helps individuals, couples, and families understand how past relationship patterns shape their present experiences—and how to create healthier, more fulfilling connections moving forward.

Difficulty trusting others or fearing abandonment.
Feeling “too much” or “not enough” in relationships.
Struggles with emotional closeness, intimacy, or vulnerability.
Repeating unhealthy relationship patterns, even when you want to break free.
Feeling anxious, insecure, or disconnected in relationships.
Challenges with setting boundaries or asserting your needs.
Relationship burnout, codependency, or people-pleasing tendencies.
Carrying pain from childhood relationships with caregivers.
Attachment wounds and relational struggles can show up in many ways:
You don’t have to continue feeling stuck in these patterns. By working with the nervous system, emotions, and relational history, we help you build a more secure, fulfilling way of relating to yourself and others.

A Whole-Person Perspective – We integrate relational therapy, somatic work, self-regulation techniques, and evidence-based interventions to address challenges from multiple angles.
Practical Tools for Everyday Life – Therapy is not just about insight—it’s about gaining the tools and strategies to navigate emotions, relationships, and daily life with confidence.
Deep, Root-Cause Healing – Instead of just managing symptoms, we work to understand and shift underlying patterns so that real, lasting change can happen.
A Flexible, Evolving Process – As you grow, your therapy evolves with you. We adjust the approach based on what’s working, ensuring that each session remains impactful and aligned with your needs.
💡Therapy is about more than just coping—it’s about building a stronger, more resilient, and more connected version of yourself. Whatever challenges you’re facing, we are here to help you move through them with care, expertise, and a truly integrative approach to healing.
