Extra Info:“If They Knew the Real Me…”: Shame, Attachment Ruptures & the Path to Repair

With Christiane Sanderson

The silence hung between them. Sophie’s eyes, moments ago bright with vulnerability, now darted away as she stiffened. ‘Forget it,’ she whispered, ‘I shouldn’t have brought it up.’

The therapist felt the sudden shift—that unmistakable moment when connection collapses into shame. A slight hesitation, an ill-timed question—whatever it was had touched Sophie’s core fear: that to be truly seen is to be ultimately rejected.

Sophie’s hunched shoulders and shallow breathing signalled something far deeper than embarrassment: the activation of an attachment wound. Her unspoken question hung in the air — If you see who I really am, how long until you turn away too?
