SGR 090: What Your Attachment Style Means with Katie Miles, LMFT

June 18, 2020 Marina Voron

Do you know what your attachment style is?

Each of us develops an attachment style early in life - it’s solidified by about age 3 - that we take with us into future relationships. While we can’t change our style, we can use it to provide context for our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in relationships. The more we know, the more we can adapt to healthier ways of being with our partner.

There are four common styles:

Secure attachment
Anxious attachment
Avoidant attachment
Anxious-avoidant attachment

Interestingly, many anxiously attached individuals partner with avoidantly attached individuals. This dynamic sets the stage for a pursuer-distancer dance (think: one person is highly focused on and sensitive to their partner’s feelings towards them, while the other is highly focused on creating space and not getting too attached) that lends itself to chronic conflict and emotional flooding.
