Your attachment style isn’t etched in stone — it’s a skill that can be developed.

The Attachment Workshop Can Help You

Be present to your needs

Practice secure behaviors

Develop relational comfort

Understand secure attachment

Reduce relational anxiety

Understand your behavior

We approach attachment work from a slightly different perspective; in this workshop the focus is on understanding the conditions required for relational security (secure attachment). This means taking a look at the origins of attachment and how it develops so that we can be compassionate with ourselves when we experience relational insecurity. After that, we dive deeper into what secure attachment actually looks like; what it feels like, how it shows up, and what qualities are present in those who practice secure attachment. The better we get at understanding what it looks & feels like, and the more we practice these behaviors & create these conditions in our lives, the closer we can get to earning security in our relationships.

We will teach you strategies for understanding how to use your —and others’ — insecure moves as clues to help deepen your trust in yourself as a secure relater. We explore how trauma impacts relational behaviors and comfort, so that you might better understand what’s happening in the toughest relational moments.

In this 6 week workshop, participants will be given tools to practice in a supportive environment, and will be given additional resources throughout the course to aid in learning.

We work together in and outside of class to:

Identify the conditions that allow for secure attachment take place
Understand attachment patterns through an intergenerational lens
Learn skills to better practice how to repair after a rupture
Identify the strategies (and their purposes) used by those with insecure attachment styles
Learn about relational needs & behaviors
Practice the qualities that will help to enhance secure attachment

“I’ve taken three of Gen’s workshops, and they have all had a profound and practical impact on my life. The skills and concepts I’ve acquired from the Self Awareness, Relationship Management, and Let It Go workshops have deepened my sense of self, my trust in my own agency and direction, and contributed to deeper, unencumbered personal relationships, as well as more harmonious professional relationships.

Her discussion style is dynamic and fluid, and she communicates complex ideas in a way that makes them personally resonant for all participants. I am so grateful that I added these workshops to my emotional resilience toolbox. I am still practicing so much of what I learned months later!”

“I can’t speak highly enough of how much I’d recommend any class taught by Genny! I have been consistently going to therapy and was ready to add some more resources to my mental health toolbox and found the EQ School through her IG posts, which really resonated with me.

There is something very special about this format of group therapy and something very special about the environment that she creates. Processing and learning with a like-minded group was profoundly beneficial. Genny created an incredibly emotionally safe environment that allowed me the space to dig in and be receptive to other’s sharings. I am looking forward to taking another course at the EQ School!”

Emily Pichler, PhD. I am a clinical psychologist and I’m passionate about using what we know about human connection and development to create the conditions for trust, kindness, and play. I believe that our human minds—flawed as they are—are amazing tools for experiencing the world, and I love helping people hone their minds so that they can see love when it’s there and see the world for its aliveness.

Clinical psychology is my academic lineage but I have also spent a good deal of time immersed in learning about mindfulness meditation, natural sciences, computation, language, and religion. I do not see one universal truth in the world but rather believe that human behavior can be understood across multiple layers. My clinical thinking is deeply informed by personal experience, mentors, loved ones, and nature.

In my work as a therapist in private practice and outside of it, I’m passionate about making safe relationships available to everyone, and I believe everyone has the potential to learn secure relating, under the right conditions. I am delighted to be working with Genny on this project —helping people nurture themselves and others by learning new ways to relate securely.
