Attachment Styles and Understanding Your Clients w/ Nikki Cassa
If you're in the personal development world, you've probably heard of the term attachment styles. Often when we're discussing this topic we look at it through the lens of friendships or romantic relationships. However, in this week's episode, Tara chats to Mindset Coach and Mentor, Nikki Cassebohm, about how we can use neuroscience and attachment styles to better understand and interact with our clients.
THEIR DISCUSSION UNPACKS:
-
Attachment styles, such as anxious attached, avoidant, and secure, play a significant role in the client-coach relationship.
-
Clients with anxious attachment may struggle with trust, people-pleasing, boundary issues, and low self-worth.
-
Clients with avoidant attachment may exhibit independence, deflection, blaming, and difficulty opening up about their struggles.
-
The goal is to help clients move towards a secure attachment style characterised by stability, consistency, openness, and accountability.
-
Coaches' own attachment styles can influence their reactions and interactions with clients.
Accessing stillness and regulating the nervous system are essential tools for both coaches and clients.
