Length: Approx 3 hrs
Description
Building on the conference's rich exploration of attachment theory, this advanced workshop introduces a groundbreaking clinical framework that transforms traditional attachment concepts into immediately applicable therapeutic tools. We'll move beyond basic attachment styles to explore the dynamic attachment spectrum – a sophisticated model that captures the fluid nature of attachment activation in real-time clinical work.
In this workshop you will explore:
- Practical strategies for recognising and working with attachment activation states as they emerge in therapy
- Key insights to clinically apply polyvagal theory and interpersonal neurobiology to enhance attachment security and treatment outcomes
- A nuanced framework for understanding attachment patterns across diverse populations and presenting problems
- Fresh perspectives on enhancing states of security as an alternative to traditional attachment classification approaches
- The intersection of systemic and cultural factors with attachment patterns, and important implications for clinical work
