Healing Anxious Attachment

Johanna Adriaansen created this podcast with a specific mission: to bust the myths that keep anxiously attached people spinning their wheels and to offer a genuine road map toward secure attachment. Across 46 episodes, she covers somatic therapy practices, inner child work, trauma healing, and the anxious-avoidant dance that so many listeners find themselves trapped in. The show is solo-format and relatively compact, with episodes focused enough that you can listen, absorb, and actually try something different the same day. Adriaansen has a calm, measured delivery that feels particularly well-suited for a listener base that's often in a heightened emotional state. She doesn't just explain what anxious attachment looks like — she gets into the body-level experience of it, talking about nervous system activation and how to work with your physical responses, not just your thoughts. It's worth noting that the last episode dropped in August 2024, so the show may be on hiatus or concluded. But the existing catalog remains valuable, especially for someone just beginning to understand their attachment patterns. Rated 4.8 stars from 89 reviews, listeners have called it one of the most accessible entry points into anxious attachment healing. Despite being marketed primarily toward women, reviewers from all backgrounds have found it relatable. Adriaansen also runs a "Becoming Secure Community" for people who want to go deeper than what a podcast episode can offer. The tone throughout is compassionate without being coddling — she respects her audience enough to tell them the hard truths too.
