Attachment & Family Therapy offers an integrative, family-based
approach to understanding and addressing the psychological and
relational needs of distressed children and their parents. The book
blends attachment theory and basic developmental research with the
diverse insights and methods of all schools of family systems
theory. The problems addressed range from mild developmental
issues, to autism, ADHD, disability, divorce and separation,
psychosomatic disorders, and child protection and out-of-home
placement. The solutions described involve not only traditional
forms of family therapy, but also formulations and
conceptualizations that combine individual, couples, and family
work around specific issues. Crittenden, Dallos, Landini and
Kozlowska present a model of attachment that fits the breadth of
clinical variation, focuses on family strengths, is developmentally
sophisticated and structurally informed by insights from neurology
and information-processing. This model generates a systemic
approach to treatment in which dysfunction is interpersonal. It is
a response to real danger experienced by family members and
requires uniquely sensitive interpersonal responses.
A collection of writings by leading developmental psychologist
Patricia M Crittenden, highlighting her vast contribution to
attachment theory and research. It includes her observation of
compulsive A, coercive C, and combined A/C patterns; application of
attachment theory to child maltreatment, parent and child mental
illness, and criminality; and the Dynamic-Maturational Model (DMM)
of Attachment and Adaptation.Includes an introduction to the
Dynamic-Maturational Model of Attachment and Adaptation (DMM) and
shows the history of that model. Contains an introduction and
commentaries and published in conjunction with the International
Association for the Study of Attachment (IASA).
This book focuses upon new methods of analysis for adult attachment
texts. The authors’ introduce a highly nuanced model—the
Dynamic-Maturational Model (DMM)—providing clinicians with a
finely-tuned tool for helping patients examine past relationships,
in addition to gauging the potential effectiveness of various
treatment options. The authors offer a fascinating explanation of
the neurobiological underpinnings of DMM, grounded in findings from
the cognitive neurosciences about information processing. In this
volume, readers have an eminently practical, theoretically-grounded
work that is sure to transform many types of therapy.
This volume presents a new theory on attachment that broadens its range to ages beyond infancy, to many cultures and to endangered populations. The intent is to provide new theory and methods to better understand human variation in interpersonal and cultural self-protective strategies. Quality of attachment has been a key variable in developmental research during the last two decades. Even though attachment is relevant to all cultures and humans of all ages, the majority of research has focused on middle class infants in Anglicized cultures. The expansion of the attachment classificatory system beyond its roots in infancy and to a broad range of cultures differentiates this volume from other work on attachment.
