ATTACHMENT THERAPY for ATTACHMENT DISORDER

Welcome to our attachment center for treating adults and children with emotional trauma and attachment disorder. We hope you will find information that will be helpful in your search for healing.

We provide treatment for families, couples and individuals struggling with reactive attachment disorder, behavioral challenges, relationship issues and marital difficulties. People come from all across the US to participate in our one and two week healing intensives. The two week intensive is for adoptive families. Depending upon the severity of emotional trauma the length of time for adults and couples will be determined.

As a licensed therapist and adoption specialists, we are dedicated to helping and supporting adoptive families prepare before and thrive after the adoption process, especially with issues of bonding and attachment disorder. Inner healing prayer and relational prayer ministry are integral parts of our Christ centered approach. To talk with families/couples who have participated in intensives at Beatitude House, CLICK on the Services page.

Beatitude House is a nonprofit organization located in the mountains of western North Carolina (NC), near the Great Smoky Mountain National Park.

Hope and Healing

As Christian Counselors, we feel called to walk along side the broken hearts of children, families, & couples devastated by emotional, physical and sexual abuse that may result in attachment disorder.

We were therapeutic foster parents to over 60 Reactive Attachment Disorder children and received extensive attachment training. We learned from, and were influenced by attachment therapists and specialists such as Terry Levy, Ph.D., D.A.P.A., B.C.F.E., Michael Orlans, M.A., D.A.P.A. – authors of Attachment Trauma and Healing, Daniel Siegle, M.D. – Parenting from the Inside Out; Jim Wilder, Ph.D. – Living From the Heart that Jesus Gave You; and Dan Hughes, Ph.D. – Building The Bonds of Attachment. Our parenting approach has been created by refining theories and methods of the specialists in the field of attachment parenting.

At our counseling center, we provide safe, respectful, effective treatment and training for people dealing with the adversities of emotional struggles including ADULT TRAUMA TREATMENT.  We work with adults who may want to work through a difficult phase in their life or to address unresolved pain from childhood maltreatment.  Many COUPLES have benefited from a 5 day intensive course of treatment to address intimacy issues, communication struggles or to take their marriage to the next level.  Ask about free lodging  which is often available nearby.

“Thank you so much for all you have done for our family. The wisdom you have shared with us is priceless. We have gained confidence to move forward and continue the work which have begun with the children in our home. You will always have a very special place in our hearts.”  ~ Terry & Judy J.     Indiana

“Dear Mr. and Mrs. Bradley, I want to say thank you very much for allowing God to use you both this week to heal my wounds and brokenness, and to restore my heart from years of tremendous, built up hurt and pain. Also for helping me find my belonging with my parents and family and for bringing us closer together.” ~  Jakela P.     Wisconsin
