What is Attachment Styles ?

Attachment styles refer to the ways we form emotional bonds and navigate intimacy in relationships, largely shaped by early experiences with caregivers. They influence how we trust others, handle conflict, and express vulnerability. The four primary attachment styles are secure, anxious, avoidant, and disorganized.

Unhealthy attachment patterns can cause difficulties in forming close, stable relationships, managing emotions, or trusting others. By recognizing your attachment style, you can take meaningful steps to develop stronger connections and improve your emotional well-being.
