Attachment is well established as a fundamental component of long-term partner relationships. Patterns of attachment, between adult partners, hold potential to strengthen or erode the relational bond. Furthermore, partner attachment dynamics have been linked to the long-term emotional and physical wellbeing of both partners. At present, effective in-depth adult attachment resources and interventions are available in various formats. This project adds to the available repertoire of adult attachment resources by providing a three-day introductory retreat focusing on attachment theory fundamentals and skills for developing healthy attachments in relationships. This three-day retreat utilizes interactive partner and group activities along with group therapy sessions. In addition, this couples’ program introduces mindfulness and gratitude practices that support secure partner interactions. This retreat program is intended to be an initial introduction to attachment science and is designed to generate openness and a desire for further engagement with adult attachment resources.
