Certified Integrated Attachment Theory Coach

Angela Vallandingham, CIATC

With a passion for inspiring and helping others, I have accumulated over 19 years of experience in pediatric primary care. Throughout my career, I have formed meaningful relationships with families, becoming a compassionate listener, a bridge builder, and a problem solver. I have witnessed countless beautiful moments, such as first-time parents welcoming newborns, the formation of new families, and the heartbreaking endings of others. I will never forget the priceless smiles of parents who had struggled to conceive for years, finally achieving their dreams. I have also shared tears with parents whose child was diagnosed with cancer, observing the strength of families that stayed together and the sadness of those that fell apart.

Working alongside phenomenal physicians who became mentors, I witnessed the positive changes they made in the world. Through years of closely observing and collaborating with families to provide realistic solutions, I became fascinated with understanding human behavior and the impact of attachment styles. 

After navigating through a series of traumatic life events, I embarked on a journey of self-healing and introspection, with a particular focus on attachment theory. My experiences had woven a complex tapestry of integrated trauma, and I was eager to break free from the dysfunctional cycles it created in my life. Through dedicated work and deep self-reflection, I transformed my avoidant attachment style—characterized by a fear of closeness and emotional distancing—into a secure attachment style that fosters healthy relationships and emotional intimacy. This profound transformation has not only enhanced my connections with others but also instilled a greater sense of self-worth and resilience within me. 

My mission is now to assist others on their healing journey by facilitating the transition from various attachment styles to a secure and authentic self. I look forward to collaborating with individuals as they explore their experiences, foster self-awareness, and ultimately cultivate healthier relationships. Through this integrative process, I aim to create a supportive environment that encourages personal growth and emotional resilience.
