"Attachment work can feel like a daunting and overwhelming journey. Elizabeth has a way of collecting her readers, helping them feel safe in showing up for attachment work. She has developed a thorough yet very approachable workbook, with exercises and areas for reflection that help integrate the info and personalize her readers' process." --Becky M Miller, LCMHC

"The only thing I don't love about this easy-to-follow workbook on attachment is that it hasn't been available to my clients before now! Elizabeth seamlessly weaves her own personal experience and wealth of knowledge around this topic into every page of this incredible guide. Her voice is warm and caring, in such a way that readers feel seen and taken care of on their journey to reaching a healthier place in their relationships. She explains things in such an approachable and accepting way, I found myself multiple times revisiting my own understanding of attachment. I also love that she uses inclusive language so that this book feels like something I can confidently hand to all of my clients (not something readily found, unfortunately!). As a therapist who works all day every day through an attachment lens, I cannot recommend this book enough!" --Ariel Shumaker-Hammond, MPH/MSW, LCSW, clinical therapist and founder of Ariel Shumaker Therapy + Photography

"Learning about attachment and how it works in your partnerships can be overwhelming. This workbook skillfully walks you through attachment theory and gives you and your partner a road map to healing. As you read, you'll have opportunities to reflect on and practice what you're learning. Elizabeth's compassionate approach radiates throughout, helping you feel supported in taking courageous steps toward healing in your relationships." --Sarah Vial, licensed marriage & family therapist

"This workbook is a must-have resource for anyone committed to self-awareness and growth within themselves and their relationships. As a therapist, I'm excited to add this workbook to my toolbox and will recommend it to clients." --Lauren Woodard, LCSW, therapist, educator, and private practice owner

"Elizabeth takes you through a series of practical examples, exercises, and information for each attachment pairing that creates an understanding of where both partners are coming from. There is evident compassion for all attachment styles and a recognition of the fluid nature of attachment and therefore the potential for healing. She beautifully illustrates how our attachment styles show up in relational conflict while also emphasizing the potential benefits of working through our wounds. She also provides examples that reflect the spectrum of relationships, including all sexualities and gender identities. I will be recommending this book to all of my clients and using it in my own relational work." --Monica LeBlanc, LCMHC
