Learning about our attachment style helps us understand the experiences that shaped the way we seek connection, safety, and closeness. We can then better recognize the patterns that we learned in our formative years so that we can find healthier ways to connect in our adult relationships.
Your attachment style isn't static and it isn't a "label," in fact, most people show traits from more than one attachment style depending on the relationship and the situation. No matter the experiences, trauma, or previous patterns, it is completely possible to move into a secure attachment.
