Secure Love

Create a lasting and loving attachment with the help of expert couples therapist Julie Menanno.

What does a healthy relationship look like?

A good question in theory, but Menanno asks: what does a securely attached relationship feel like?

The answer to this question is the ultimate goal in Secure Love, a groundbreaking guide to understanding secure attachment in adult relationships. While attachment theory has grown in popularity to explain the relationship between children and their caregivers, it’s also the closest science has come to making sense of our adult romantic connections.

In Secure Love, Menanno explains:

Why you and your partner have the same fight over and over (it's called a negative cycle; underlying every fight, argument, silent treatment, or passive-aggressive comment is an unmet attachment need).

The four attachment types, with exercises designed to help you understand you and your partner’s attachment styles.

How to improve communication, including staying connected during conflict by prioritizing vulnerability rather than protecting yourself.

“Instead of that, say this” suggested scripts of how to approach difficult situations in your relationship.

Why insecure attachment negatively impacts a couple’s sex life and how to restore that sexual connection.

Secure Love is a crash course in understanding how you show up in a relationship and how to get out of negative cycles. Menanno teaches you how to establish a secure attachment with your partner to create the bond you’ve been longing for.
