Attachment Theory in the Enneagram

In this episode of the International Enneagram Association podcast, we pull from the archives and listen to a talk from 2005 by Dr. Dan Siegel and the late Dr. David Daniels about the attachment theory in the Enneagram. Attachment theory is the importance of seeking closeness to another human, in this case, the early relationships between infants and their parents. Dr. Daniels and Dr. Siegel discusses the attachment styles within this theory—a topic that has grown in popularity–and how it works with the different Enneagram types.Connect with us:Web: internationalenneagram.org2025 IEA Global Conference: internationalenneagram.org/2025-iea-global-conferenceJoin the email list: [email protected] Conference Proposal Submission Information & Guidelines: internationalenneagram.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/2025-Proposal-Submission-Information-Guidelines.pdfIEA Global Podcast Proposal Submission Form: forms.gle/Q48QXSwQ3zDfDJaJADr. David Daniels:Web: drdaviddaniels.comWeb: narrativeenneagram.orgDr. Dan Siegel:Web: drdansiegel.comWeb: mindsightinstitute.comFB: Dr. Dan SiegelIG: @drdansiegelBook: Parenting from the Inside OutAephoria Partners:Web: aephoriapartners.comFB: Aephoria Partners Consulting
