Abstract
This paper examines literature around attachment, self-esteem, and how they can impact romantic relationships in young adulthood. This paper will also explore the different attachment styles and how attachment styles can influence a person's development of self-esteem. Further research on the topic of attachment will also explore the ‘earned’ secure attachment style and how developing an 'earned' secure attachment can positively impact a person’s romantic relationship. Finally, the author will layout a workshop that could be used to help therapists who work with teens and young adults have tools to build a more secure attachment style.
