About Gretchen CostanzoAttachment and Relationship Coach

My mission is to help people build secure, life-giving relationships with themselves, God and others.

Gretchen Costanzo is an integrative attachment and relationship coach who helps adults understand the patterns shaping anxiety, conflict, emotional distance and repeating relationship cycles.

Her approach combines attachment-informed coaching, practical relationship tools, emotional awareness and faith-informed support when desired. The goal is not simply to understand the pattern, but to practice healthier communication, boundaries and secure connection.

Gretchen works with individual men and women and couples who want greater clarity, stronger self-trust and relationships that feel honest, emotionally safe and deeply connected.

Attachment and Emotional Awareness Resources

How Attachment Might Show Up Emotions often communicate through behavior before we have words for what we are feeling.

Our attachment patterns can influence how we react when we feel afraid, rejected, misunderstood, disconnected or uncertain. These emotional-awareness resources can help you identify what may be happening beneath a reaction and begin responding with greater clarity, compassion and security.

The Emotion Behavior Wheel connects emotions with common behaviors and reactions. The Feelings Chart provides a broader vocabulary for naming emotional experiences more accurately.

What might an attachment response look like?

  • Seeking repeated reassurance when connection feels uncertain.

  • Becoming critical, reactive or defensive when feeling hurt or unseen.

  • Withdrawing, shutting down or creating distance during emotionally intense moments.

  • Reacting to an older relational wound as though it is happening again in the present.

Awareness is not about judging your reaction. It creates space to understand what the reaction may be protecting and choose a more secure response.

Try using these tools in three steps

  1. Identify the emotion closest to what you are experiencing.
  2. Notice the behavior, urge or reaction connected to that emotion.
  3. Pause before responding and consider what a more secure action could look like.
