Secure Attachment and What It Looks Like in Real Life

People with a secure attachment style tend to feel comfortable with closeness and independence. They can rely on others and let others rely on them. In relationships, they communicate openly, handle conflict without panic, and trust that things will be okay, even if there's a bump in the road.

That doesn’t mean they never get upset or have insecurities. But they generally bounce back, feel grounded, and trust that love isn’t going to disappear overnight.

If this sounds like you, that’s amazing! And if it doesn’t, know that secure attachment isn’t out of reach. We can all move toward security with awareness, practice, and support.

Virtual counseling sessions are available in Illinois, Ohio, New York, Kentucky, South Carolina, and Florida.
