Autorenporträt

Una McCluskey is an Honorary Research Fellow at the University of York. She is a psychoanalytic psychotherapist, a trainer, consultant, researcher and supervisor.

This model is relevant to individual, group, and organizational development. She has an international reputation in the attachment field and has developed a community of professionals who are trained and experienced in the practice of EGCP. She has published widely in the field. Michael O 'Toole is a Registered Counselling Psychologist and Psychotherapist. Michael works in private practice in the west of Ireland.
