Chagrin Falls, OH- June 4, 2026: Horses and Humans Research Foundation (HHRF) is pleased to offer three free informative events this month.
The Influence of our Attachment Style on Horse-Human Interactions
Join Kate Naylor, LMFT, Kathleen Choe, LPC-S and HHRF on Wednesday, June 10, 2026, at Noon (ET) as Kate and Kathleen discuss The Influence of our Attachment Style on Horse-Human Interactions.
The topic of attachment styles has become increasingly popular on social media. We are told that we can answer a few simple questions in order to determine our style, thus opening the door to a new realm of insight into improving our relationships. In reality, our attachment patterns are more nuanced and variable, occurring on a spectrum rather than presenting as a fixed trait. In this webinar, we will explore the four main attachment styles, how they develop, and how they might influence the way we approach our interactions with both humans and horses. Developing awareness and insight into our specific styles of relating opens up rich opportunities for positive growth and change that can benefit our connection with our selves as well as our human and equine friends!
