Attachment-based Practice with Adults

Over recent decades, attachment theory has become central to understanding not only childhood development and how people survive and grow, but also the capacity of partners, parents and carers to offer safe and consistent care, particularly under difficult conditions. Updating a bestselling guide, Attachment-based Practice with Adults, Second Edition integrates attachment theory with other concepts to explore how we can understand and respond to troubled adults. By integrating audio, visual and written information around five characters and their stories, the guide shows how to make sense of, talk with and relate to individuals whose past relationships have caused them difficulties. The Second Edition also includes Attachment-based Practice with Adults: The Interviewing Guide, previously part of the manual but now included as a separate publication and also available to purchase separately.
