HELD

a supported integrative attachment coaching program

We don’t have any HELD groups at the moment. Please stay tuned for our next offering!

Relational healing happens with support, high quality resources, and community.

Have you ever noticed how your attachment patterning shows up in real life?

It’s a Sunday morning. You have just woken up to dirty dishes in the sink and your mind is reeling with the laundry list of things your partner doesn’t do. The expectations they don’t fulfill, the ways in which they don’t measure up. Your complaints overwhelm your thinking so much that approaching your partner with compassion feels impossible.

Or maybe you’re dating, and your wondering why the hell people keep ghosting you. Or why you just don’t feel like you can connect more deeply than a few dates. 

And if you’re parenting or caregiving, just accomplishing one task without feeling completely triggered (especially if you’re sleep deprived) is a job in itself. 

This is your attachment patterning in action. This is how it shows up in real life moments, and how it interrupts and hijacks connection and growth. This is how it keeps you and the people in your life stuck in the same old patterns. 

What if you could experience this pattern but instead of being in it, you are floating above it, watching it? What if you had spaciousness to separate who you are from the pattern and understand it differently? What could you learn about yourself? How might you shift your perspective on your relationships and how they contribute to your overall well being? 

Welcome to HELD: a space to learn about your patterns in real time with all the cozy support you could ever need to make big changes in your relationships to yourself and to your loved ones. 

With a multi-disciplinary approach, you will get to learn about yourself not just from an attachment lens, but in harmony with other modalities too like the Enneagram, parts work, embodiment, boundaries and many more. And just to be clear, this is not a lecture and learn program. HELD is an experiential deep dive into attachment theory. This program creates experiences for you to actively shift and learn in the moment, notice and understand your patterning, and change it with support, guidance, clarity, and love. This is not a place to vent or simply verbally process—we are intent on creating real, lasting change in your nervous system and that requires a different type of presence. We are here to guide you!

A multi-disciplinary approach to embodying security in your relationships.

We created the coaching group we wish we had.

HELD incorporates perspectives in the Enneagram, embodiment, boundaries, parts and Internal Family Systems work, and lots more, all at the intersection of attachment theory.

HELD provides several opportunities each week to engage in the material. Outside of the virtual weekly coaching group on Thursdays at 11am EST (which we see as the foundation of this offering), you can also be part of:

  • Weekly office hours with Elizabeth and Monica

  • An hour of individual coaching each month of the program

  • An interactive online platform full of resources and discussion with other participants

  • A BONUS, optional astrology offering with Liz Gunn, intuitive astrologer, who will provide group guidance around relationships, healing, and growth, specific to your astrological blueprint

With Special Guest

  • Liz Gunn, Intuitive Astrologer

    Liz has lived in a deep relationship with the planetary beings for 35 years through a visceral experience of direct guidance as a daily practice. This commitment to psycho-spiritual development as it relates to consciousness, and the impulse of the soul to know itself through evolving experience, is the backdrop to Liz's calling as a professional consulting Intuitive Astrologer. She has facilitated thousands of readings in the last 25 years and as a result, leans in to each session with a level of mastery that hears the nuance of the soul's voice through all time. This Great Work is embedded in her own personal work and inner healing and reflects a compassionate, direct and revolutionary quality of insight to guide her clients towards higher states of awareness. As a Taurus Sun, Sag Moon and Cancer Rising, Liz offers practical wisdom in a nurturing safe environment where you are seen, heard and held with tremendous love for the Truth of who you are.

    **We are delighted to offer this optional opportunity to work with Liz Gunn. She is a dedicated and experienced practitioner, whose wisdom gives an additional framework for understanding your relational patterns, history, and growth edges. This offering is a bonus to the program and is not required to participate.

HELD Q+A

learn if HELD is right for you!

  • If you aren’t sure, please reach out to us with your questions or just apply. We would love to hear from you and get a sense of what you are looking for, and we can support you in deciding if HELD makes sense for you right now. Making sure it’s a good fit is important!

  • You may be able to! One of the most consistent pieces of feedback we have received from our participants is that the group container was deeply supportive for them, and that having the accountability and consistency each week rooted in relationships with other participants helped to shift patterns and make lasting change.

  • The group will be no larger than 8 members.

  • We record the sessions based on attendance and group consensus.

  • We use Zoom for our weekly meetings and office hours, and Mighty Networks for resources and conversations between sessions.

You don’t have to do the healing work alone. We are here to support you every step of the way (and bring wisdom, humor, and lots of compassion). We are so excited to grow with you!
