Attachment Issues

At Sage Mental Health & Maternal Wellness, we understand how early life experiences can shape emotional connections and influence relationships throughout life. Attachment issues often develop in childhood, especially in response to inconsistent caregiving, trauma, or unmet emotional needs. These patterns can persist into adulthood, influencing how we interact with others, manage stress, and perceive our sense of security.

Whether you are a parent concerned about your child’s emotional development or an adult navigating the impact of past relationships, our therapeutic support may help foster healing, growth, and resilience.

Attachment and Maternal Mental Health

Attachment issues can also emerge during the perinatal period. Mothers who struggle with postpartum depression, anxiety, or past trauma may find it difficult to bond with their newborn. These challenges are more common than many realize and can lead to feelings of guilt, isolation, or fear.

Our therapists are trained to support maternal wellness with sensitivity and care. We work alongside clients to strengthen parent-child bonds, process past experiences, and develop practical tools for emotional connection and regulation.

How Therapy Can Help

Healing from attachment issues begins with awareness, followed by compassionate support and the right therapeutic approach. At Sage Mental Health & Maternal Wellness, we create a safe space for you to explore past and present relationship dynamics, build emotional insight, and practice new ways of relating to yourself and others.

We use therapeutic models such as:

• Attachment-Based Therapy
• Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)
• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
• Perinatal Mental Health Counselling
• Inner Child Work and Trauma-Informed Practices

Whether you are working through childhood experiences, parenting challenges, or adult relationship patterns, our approach is always person-centred and collaborative.

Support for Children and Families

Children who have attachment issues may become withdrawn, angry, or anxious. At Sage, we help families by providing compassionate, developmentally appropriate treatment that enhances communication and fortifies emotional ties. Our family and child sessions support parents in creating safe bonds and assist kids in developing emotional control, self-assurance, and interpersonal trust.
