Course Overview
This 5 day course focuses on the development, prevention and treatment of psychological disorder using an Attachment framework. The course considers development from infancy to adulthood, emphasising implications for psychological wellbeing and the development of psychological and psychiatric disorders. A particular emphasis is cultural influences on Attachment. The model used is the Dynamic Maturational Model (DMM) of Attachment and Adaptation which underpins and is a prerequisite to training in assessment tools including the CARE Index, Strange Situation and Adult Attachment Interview. The course is structured developmentally and consists of lecture with slides, video examples, role playing, case studies and interview transcripts. Reading materials and clinical tools such as the Level of Family Functioning Scale are available to take away.
Targeted Audience
