Rooted in childhood relational trauma, the dynamic of this co-addicted relationship is obsessive and painful. Love addicts assign too much value, time, and attention to another person while neglecting to care for or value themselves. Love avoidants systematically use relational walls during intimate contact to prevent feeling overwhelmed by the other person, associating “love” with duty or work. The love avoidant’s greatest fear is that of vulnerability, and the love addict’s great fear is abandonment. In this workshop, Jean will identify the origins and the attachment styles of both addict and avoidant and delve into the intricacies of “The Dance” between them. The antidote for these destructive relationships will also be revealed.
