Attachment Theory & Our Relationship With Food, Eating, & Body Image With Kate Garland, LCSW-S & Dr. Vanessa Scaringi

Kate Garland, LCSW, Dr. Vanessa Scaringi, and I talk about attachment theory and how it shapes our relationship with food, eating habits, and body image. Whether you have an anxious, avoidant, or secure attachment style, the way you relate to others can reflect deeply in how you nourish yourself and view your body. We’ll explore the emotional and psychological connections between attachment and food, break down how early relational experiences influence eating behaviors, and offer tools to heal and rebuild a positive relationship with your body. Tune in to learn how understanding your attachment style can be a game-changer in your body liberation journey!   LEARN MORE ABOUT KATE GARLAND, LCSW-S Kathryn "Kate" Garland, LCSW-S, CEDS-C is a licensed clinical social worker and supervisor in Texas, New York, and Massachusetts.
