Dismissive Avoidant Attachment – Definition

dismissive avoidant attachment therapy

Dismissive Avoidant Attachment issues can be addressed and improved using the power of the subconscious mind. Hypnosis accesses this part of the mind and helps replace negative emotions with positive ones. Meridian Peak Hypnosis works with clients worldwide via remote Internet sessions and in-person in our offices.

Dismissive avoidant attachment is defined as a reluctance to rely on others and a tendency to suppress emotions in relationships. This attachment type is identified by a preference for independence and a tendency to shy away from closeness in order to shield from perceived vulnerability.

People who experience Dismissive Avoidant Attachment typically do not participate deeply in relationships. As a result: their relationships break down and many times end because their partner does not effectively connect with them.

Dismissive Avoidant Attachment signs and symptoms include:

• Hard to communicate with in relationships
• Emotionally cold or disconnected
• Difficult to connect deeply
• Feeling defensive in relationships
• Heavy reliance on avoidance in relationships
• Always feeling mistrusting in relationships
• Partner feels like or accuses you of not wanting to be in the relationship

The Honeymoon Period in Dismissive Avoidant Attachment

People experiencing dismissive avoidant attachment commonly have a ‘honeymoon period’ at the beginning of the relationship where they are not required to be vulnerable or deeply connect with others, then after that period their defensive mechanisms kick in and become detached, not allowing themselves to be vulnerable and connect deeply with their partner.

The Subconscious Mind and Dismissive Avoidant Attachment

The subconscious mind plays a complex role in dismissive avoidant attachment, influencing feelings for independence and aversion to closeness as a defense against vulnerability. Automated responses and reactions are shaped by subconscious ideas and experiences, which forms the automated programs the mind references to when it wonders how to respond to a situation without logically thinking about it first.

Explained simply: there is a toxic program running in the subconscious mind that needs a ‘way out’ and replacement. Talking about why you feel the way you do simply does not solve this type of deep rooted subconscious issue.

Hypnosis Can Help Address Dismissive Avoidant Attachment Concerns

Hypnosis can aid in addressing subconscious issues associated with dismissive avoidant attachment by accessing deeper layers of the mind. Hypnosis helps people reframe underlying beliefs and experiences contributing to avoidant attachment patterns. Hypnosis is the only tool that gains access to the subconscious mind, allowing for the integration of new perspectives and behaviors. By targeting and removing subconscious barriers, hypnotherapy facilitates change and creates a space in the mind to be able to form and stay in relationships safely.

Hypnosis gives a ‘way out’ for emotions that are ‘stuck’ in the subconscious mind and most importantly: replaces them with thoughts, feelings, behaviors, habits and a new emotional core that serve better.

Hypnosis is Proven More Effective Than Talk Therapy

In a study in American Health Magazine, hypnosis and hypnotherapy have a 93% success rate compared with lower results from other methods of therapy which require far more sessions.  Click here to learn more about hypnosis and its high success rate.
