This presentation examines attachment theory, the characteristics of various attachment styles, and how these patterns influence emotional regulation and relational dynamics. It also differentiates between insecure attachment and narcissistic traits. Special attention will be given to how both attachment issues and narcissistic behaviors can increase vulnerability to abuse and contribute to patterns of intimate partner violence. Participants will gain insight into fostering secure attachments and identifying patterns that may hinder emotional connection and explore pathways to healthier relationships. 

Learning Objectives:

• Explain the main attachment styles and how they influence adult relationships.  

• Differentiate between insecure attachment and narcissistic traits, particularly in the context of power and control.
