Frequently Asked Questions
- What is a relationship archetype?
- A relationship archetype is a recurring role or pattern you fall into across different relationships — often unconsciously. These patterns are learned, usually in early relationships, and persist because they once provided safety or connection.
- Can relationship archetypes change?
- Yes. Awareness is the first shift. Once you can name the archetype and the need behind it, you can start responding with more choice. CBT and attachment-informed therapy are both effective for this work.
