About this episode

This episode explores disorganised attachment, its development, and its impact on relationships and emotions.

Welcome back to Wise Mind: A DBT Podcast! We’re wrapping up our attachment series with the final episode on disorganised attachment, the last of the insecure attachment styles. In this episode, we explore what disorganised attachment is, how it develops, and what it can look like in relationships and everyday life. We also discuss the mixed experience of wanting connection while simultaneously fearing it, and how these patterns can impact emotions, communication, and trust.
