Over recent decades, attachment theory has come to be seen as fundamental 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. Attachment-based Practice with Children, Adolescents and Families integrates attachment theory with other key concepts to explore the ways in which we understand and respond to troubled young people. Drawing on psychiatry, psychotherapy, social work, clinical psychology, systemic therapy and multi-modal assessment and intervention, and combining theory, practical guidance and illustrated case studies, the authors present an attachment-based, integrative, biopsychosocial approach to working with individuals and families that is designed to promote improved outcomes for all involved.

Attachment-based Practice with Adults: Understanding Strategies and Promoting Positive Change, Second Edition

Morrison, Tony

Attachment theory is a framework for understanding human behaviour that helps us identify the nature and source of an individual or group' s responses to anxiety, change, threat or danger, and can be used across a range of therapeutic interventions.Integrated within the first edition of Attachment-based Practice with Adults but bound and sold separately for the second edition, The Interviewing Guide lets readers see how the three core attachment strategies - distancing (' A' ), preoccupied (' C' ) and balanced (' B' ), influenced by procedural, sensory, semantic, episodic and integrative memory systems - are typically expressed in verbal and non-verbal communication. Reproducible discourse marker sheets allow readers to keep a log of interviews to become more familiar with patterns of discourse and their underlying functions.

Jessica Kingsley Publishers

Attachment-based Practice with Adults is an illustrated, multi-media resource offering a theoretically coherent, practice-based model for the application of attachment theory in working with any adults, including those who pose a risk to themselves or to other adults or children. At the heart of the resource is the five-step LEARN model, a flexible interviewing strategy which helps practitioners work with confidence in an attachment-informed way. Having introduced contemporary attachment theory, its links with neuro-biology and the importance of personal stories, the manual and audio DVD provide five powerful case studies to illustrate the three different attachment strategies, with audio interviews, commentaries and guided practical exercises. A detailed Interviewing Guide provides an invaluable framework for conducting and making sense of interviews, with examples of possible responses which might promote integration. Further exercises provide the basis for assessment and intervention with clients, and a final section shows how attachment-informed supervision can help to enhance practice. As a work-based resource, Attachment-based Practice with Adults increases the confidence of practitioners to act as change agents with their clients, and to relate to them in attuned and effective ways. It can be used by individuals, teams, co-workers, supervisors and teachers/trainers to reflect on and improve the preparation, use and support of attachment thinking in practice. It speaks to diverse professions and modalities and can be used in a multidisciplinary environment by both adult and children’s services. Author Clark Baim also runs a 10 day course, Attachment-based Practice, spread over 9 – 12 months for all professionals who work with people in distress or who are at risk of harm to themselves or others, of which this training resource accompanies. Professionals within the social care sector are required to undertake Continuous Professional Development (CPD) by the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC). Those who use this resource will be able to gain CPD points.

Staging the Personal: A Guide to Safe and Ethical Practice

PALGRAVE~MACMILLAN

This book examines the history, ethics, and intentions of staging personal stories and offers theatre makers detailed guidance and a practical model to support safe, ethical practice.&nbsp; Contemporary theatre has crossed boldly into therapeutic terrain and is now the site of radical self-exposure. Performances that would once have seemed shockingly personal and exposing have become commonplace, as people reveal their personal stories to audiences with ever-increasing candor. This has prompted the need for a robust and pragmatic framework for safe, ethical practice in mainstream and applied theatre.&nbsp; In order to promote a wider range of ethical risk-taking where practitioners negotiate blurred boundaries in safe and artistically creative ways, this book draws on relevant theory and practice from theatre and performance studies, psychodrama and attachment narrative therapy and provides detailed guidance supporting best practice in the theatre of personal stories. The guidance is structured within a four-part framework focused on history, ethics, praxis, and intentions. This includes a newly developed model for safe practice, called the Drama Spiral. The book is for theatre makers in mainstream and applied theatre, educators, students, researchers, drama therapists, psychodramatists, autobiographical performers, and the people who support them.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; <div> </div> <div> </div>
