This workshop will be delivered via Zoom online. 

We are all much more aware of the importance of early relationships with our caregivers on our later relationships. Attachment theory has now entered the mainstream, but what is it really about. How does this link to brain development? What’s the research? How can having more knowledge about trauma help us gain a greater understanding of the impact of separation loss on child and adult development?

By the end of this workshop you should have gained some: 

  • Understanding of the theoretical and conceptual basis of attachment within a psychodynamic framework that emphasises the interdependence of systems concerning development, relationships and meaning-making.
  • Knowledge of key attachment research i.e. the Strange Situation Test and the Adult Attachment Interview.
  • Understanding of the role of attachment in brain development with specific reference to critical periods of development and the promotion of regulatory behaviour in the infant and young child.
  • Understanding of the impact of separation, loss, and trauma on attachment
