Your attachment style shapes how you connect with others — but often, the roots run deeper than early relationships alone. Jungian therapy offers powerful tools for understanding and transforming these patterns by working with your shadow — the hidden parts of yourself that you might deny, fear, or reject.

The shadow includes all the emotions, desires, and beliefs you’ve learned to push away, often to fit in or feel safe. For example, if you learned in childhood that needing others was weak, you might hide that neediness in your shadow — but it still drives your relationships from behind the scenes.

In therapy, exploring your shadow means facing these hidden feelings and needs with compassion, rather than judgment. By bringing them into the light, you can begin to understand why you react the way you do in relationships — and start to make different choices.

For example, you might discover that your avoidant tendencies are rooted in a fear of vulnerability, or that your anxious patterns stem from feeling unworthy of love. By integrating these shadow parts, you can gradually move toward a secure attachment style — one where you trust yourself and others, set healthy boundaries, and feel safe being authentic.

Jungian therapy helps you build a relationship with all parts of yourself, fostering wholeness and deep healing. With this foundation, you can create more secure, fulfilling connections — both at work and in your personal life.
