Episode 51: Attachment Styles w/ Alejandro Maldonado

In this episode, Alejandro and I unpack attachment, systems, and how upbringing affects how we behave in all of our relations.

Alejandro Maldonado is a Master of Arts in Marriage and Family Therapy, Certified Coach Practitioner, National Certified Healthcare Interpreter, and Certified Prepare-Enrich.

Alejandro is a veteran of the health system, with 26 years of experience in healthcare interpreting. From his studies and work in cross-cultural communications, a passion for psychotherapy was born.

A proponent of self-regulation, Alejandro understands the importance of understanding how our personal histories influence current affairs. Interdependencies between behavior, brain, and attachment may be stubborn, but they don’t have to be permanent. This is, as Alejandro believes, the beauty of neuroplasticity. With concerted thinking, learning, and acting, the brain can rewire itself time and time again, as it mirrors processes found in early childhood development.
