Have you heard of Attachment Theory? Whether you are involved in healing work, other therapies, recovery, teen work, you have likely recently come across Attachment Theory. It is becoming more pervasive by the day, as we find more domains within which the attachment-based work can really succeed. We will develop 3 “levels,” of group classes. Level I will be the intro and everyone is required to take it to get to Level II (unless you have a legitimate reason to skip Level I then let me know). We will be developing a strong foundation in Attachment Theory, starting with Bowlby and the other greats, and ending with delightful neuroscience research with Alan Schore and Dan Siegal. It is a lucky time to be in the field of attachment! We at the Adult Attachment Program have done a meta-analysis, combining all of the education from the neuroscientists, the psychoanalysts, the behaviorists, the professors, and the original few researchers, to compile and present a coherent, well thought-out, and hopefully you will find it to be well executed as well. If there is anything I can do to make this course more valuable to you, please DO NOT hesitate to reach out to me directly. I really value that feedback.
Who this course is for:
- This course if for people of all education levels, whether you want to learn about attachment for personal reasons or if you want to build it into your clinical practice.
