About

A renowned expert on attachment theory shares tools and insights for transforming the therapeutic relationship for ourselves and our clients.



Attachment theory has revolutionized our understanding of early development, the internal world, and human relationships. For therapists, this theory does even more than provide new insights into our clients' needs and challenges. "In psychotherapy, healing occurs in the context of the therapeutic relationship," teaches Dr. David Wallin. "The more we attune to both our own and our clients' attachment patterns, the better we are able to use the richness and creativity of that relationship to enable transformation."



With Attachment in the Practice of Psychotherapy, Dr. Wallin provides a how-to workshop for integrating the invaluable principles of attachment theory into our professional practice and personal lives. This eight-session audio course delves into the crux of attachment theory in order to bring to light concrete, real-world applications for day-to-day practice as a clinician. Here you'll explore:



• How we form attachment patterns in childhood-and what allows us to change them later in life

• "Dialogue of the unconscious"-developing your skills with recognizing and using nonverbal communication

• How our own attachment patterns uniquely shape each therapeutic relationship

• Mentalizing, Mindfulness, and Subjectivity-the "triple helix" of psychological liberation

• Ways to balance authenticity and self-revelation with the client's need for emotional safety, and much more



"The healing potential of therapy relies on our openness to learning about how our individual strengths and vulnerabilities can be used in ways that benefit our clients," says Dr. Wallin. With Attachment in the Practice of Psychotherapy, you'll experience a deep immersion in tools and insights arising from attachment theory to add a new dimension to your therapeutic relationships-and foster greater levels of understanding, healing, and psychological growth. A renowned expert on attachment theory shares tools and insights for transforming the therapeutic relationship for ourselves and our clients.
