The Avoidant Attachment Style

Attachment Theory outlines four attachment styles formed during the first 18 months of life: one secure and three insecure—anxious, avoidant, and disorganized (fearful/avoidant). Each style, deeply rooted in childhood experiences, continues to influence our adult relationships and parenting behaviors. In this episode, we explore the avoidant attachment style, often developed in children raised by emotionally distant or strict caregivers who discourage emotional expression and prioritize independence. Adults with avoidant attachment may appear emotionally detached or as if they have a “switch” to turn off feelings. Tune in to gain valuable insights into this attachment style and learn how to navigate your own attachment patterns for healthier, more connected relationships.
