Rupture-Repair Cycle

What happens when things go wrong in relationships? The Rupture-Repair Cycle helps us to see that all relationships have messy moments and that we don’t need to be afraid of them. Resilience is built by going from rupture to repair.

Attachment Styles

Understanding your own attachment style helps you identify where you experience anxiety in relationships.
That anxiety impacts on our capacity to trust, the way we behave and the way we make sense of others’ behaviour.
