Attachment and Adult Clinical Practice (eBook, PDF)

An Integrated Perspective on Developmental Theory, Neurobiology, and Emotional Regulation

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This comprehensive volume addresses attachment theory's history as well as its integration with neurobiology, psychophysiology, theories of emotion, regulation theory, and mentalization theory. It explores how clinicians can connect with their clients so that they feel completely seen and heard.

Attachment theory speaks to one's biological drive to connect, to relate, and to feel heard. The author aims to achieve this by condensing the enormous and diverse literature of the ¿eld into a singular, manageable work that clinicians can use to foster these connections. The book traces the history of attachment theory and describes how neurobiological research has in¿uenced the expansion of attachment theory, and how emotions and psychophysiology have become critical to our understanding of human attachment connections. It concludes with a detailed examination of how to apply these theories in clinical practice.

This practical book addresses attachment theory's take on integrating the mind, body, and emotion when striving toward well-being. It will be of great importance for psychotherapy students, beginning therapists, and experienced clinicians with an interest in attachment theory.

Rezensionen

"This comprehensive text is unique in reviewing over 50 years of Attachment Theory, from Bowlby's conceptualization of infant-caregiver dyads, extending through the lenses of social, developmental and biological psychology and neuroscience research, and culminating in applications in adult relationships and clinical practice. The final chapters masterfully draw together all theoretical and empirical strands explored in preceding chapters. The clear prose and wide-ranging advanced content make it both accessible to students and essential reading for experienced clinicians. Highly recommended!" - Flora Hoodin, PhD, Adjunct Associate Professor of Psychiatry, University of Michigan, Professor Emerita, Eastern Michigan University
