A somatic psychotherapist's guide to building authentic and loving connections

Are your closest relationships often a source of stress rather than security?
Do you ever feel disconnected and lonely, even in the company of family and friends?

In Attuned and Attached, Yolanda Renteria invites you to take a deeper look at your emotional connections and discover what secure attachment and true intimacy actually feels like. With a practical programme of psychotherapy tools and accessible, safe ways of implementing somatic trauma healing, Yolanda will guide you to understand how your attachments have been formed, and how they are capable of being improved.

Begin a profound journey of self-discovery which has the potential to positively transform all of your relationships and interactions. You’ll learn how to:

  • Recognise signs of emotional disconnection in yourself and others
  • Break patterns of intergenerational trauma
  • Develop skills to practise non-aggressive communication
  • Create a safe and supportive community

This book offers the ultimate roadmap to bringing more safety into all your relationships, so you can live a life filled with nourishing, peaceful and fulfilling connections.

Praise for Attuned and Attached

A compassionate and deeply grounding guide to understand how emotional disconnection often begins as survival – and how reconnection becomes possible. Yolanda Renteria weaves attachment theory and somatic wisdom without urgency or shame, honoring the body’s intelligence at every turn. This book is an invitation into relationships that feel safer, more honest and more alive.

Dr Jennifer Mullan, best-selling author of Decolonizing Therapy

This book is for anyone who knows they want connection but can’t seem to stop keeping people at arm’s length. Yolanda Renteria offers a compassionate, research-backed road map to better understand why we disconnect and how we can build the safe, attuned relationships we actually deserve.

Whitney Goodman, author of Toxic Positivity

A deeply accurate and helpful guide for anyone who wants to heal from the pain of insecure attachment experiences and learn how to build secure relationships now and in the future. A truly compassionate and accessible book that will change many lives for the better.

Eli Hardwood, therapist, creator of Attachment Nerd, and author of Raising Securely Attached Kids and How to Deal With Your ____ So Your Kids Don’t Have To

This book is an essential and compassionate guide to recognise and heal the patterns that keep us disconnected from others. Yolanda offers both professional insight and earned wisdom to shine a light on the roots of emotional disconnection and help us form fulfilling and securely attached relationships.

Diane Poole Heller, PhD, author of The Power of Attachment, Healing Your Attachment Wounds, and Crash Course

Yolanda Renteria digs into the core of our individual and collective mis-attunement; she shows us how to identify our emotional ruptures and then develop healthy boundaries and secure connections for loving, lasting relationships.

Dr Sara Kuburic, author of It’s on Me

We’ve all heard about attachment styles, but knowing your type doesn’t translate to feeling safe in your body or feeling close to others. Attuned and Attached is the missing guide for anyone who wants connection but struggles with letting people in. Finally, a book that translates knowledge into felt experience!
