Attachments in relationships

Myira Khan • 4 June 2020

Knowing our attachment style in relationships


Attachment refers to the particular way in which you relate and attach to other people.

Your style of attachment was formed during the first two years of your life.
Once established, it is a style that stays with you and plays out today in how you relate to others in adulthood and in your intimate relationships.

Understanding your style of attachment is helpful because it allows you to understand how you respond to intimacy and connection in adult relationships and how you unconsciously play out a repeated pattern of relating to others.

We'll be exploring the different attachment styles in future posts and throughout the month as we discuss the theme of relationship and attachment patterns.


To join our Book Group this month where we'll be discussing attachment patterns, please email myira@myirakhancounselling.co.uk to register your free place.

June's Book Group is taking place on Thursday 25th June at 6pm.

What are your goals, your dreams, your ambitions? Then go and work on those. That is your focus. All else is wasted effort towards someone else's agenda. #MondayMotivation #focus #wellbeing #selfcare #agenda #motivation #goals #dreams #ThinkBig #ShineBright
