Attachment problems
Most babies develop secure emotional bonds with their caregivers at an early age. They show healthy anxiety when their caregiver is absent, and they show relief when they are reunited.
However, some babies develop attachment disorders because their caregivers are unable to meet their needs. These babies are unable to bond with their caregivers and they struggle to develop any kind of emotional attachment.
Attachment disorders are treatable, but early intervention is important. Without treatment, children with attachment disorders may experience persistent problems throughout their lives.
Symptoms of attachment disorder include:
- Bullying or hurting others
- Extreme affection
- Don't smile
- Intense outbursts of anger
- Lack of eye contact
- Lack of fear of strangers
- Lack of affection for caregivers
- Oppositional behavior
- Poor impulse control
- Self-destructive behavior
- Seeing others play but refusing to participate
- Withdrawn or listless moods
Treatment BeterKlinic
BeterKliniek is the clinic for Integrative Medicine that bridges regular and non-regular medicine.
An van Veen (physician) and Michael van Gils (therapist) look for the cause of a condition or disease. That is where the treatment starts otherwise, as people often say, it is 'carrying water to the sea'. We call this cause medicine. Sometimes it is also desirable to treat the symptoms (at the same time). We call this symptom medicine.
Chronic disorders often have their cause in epi- genetics. You can schedule a free informative telephone consultation (phone number 040-7117337 until 1 p.m.) at BeterKliniek to discuss your symptoms so that we can provide you with further advice.
