How does ARPT™ conceptualize the role of attachment agreements in shaping individuals’ self-perception and influencing their relational dynamics?

ARPT™ recognizes attachment agreements as implicit pacts formed to cope with pain originating from Attachment Blueprint Incidents (ABIs) and other traumatic experiences. These agreements, grounded in maladaptive cognitive patterns, shape self-perception and influence how individuals navigate relationships. Understanding these agreements is crucial for unraveling negative self-statements and fostering secure attachment.
