PSY 709 - Attachment-Based Intervention Strategies

Units: 3
When Offered: Summer
Building on the Attachment-Based Assessment Strategies course, this course focuses on attachment-based interventions for clients in psychotherapy. Students explore different theoretical and empirical models of intervention in order to competently and effectively work with clients in psychotherapy from a distinctly attachment perspective. Newer models are explored, including evidence-based interventions in the attachment literature. Students learn about ways to apply attachment theory to the profession of clinical psychology, intervening to help clients deepen attachment bonds and ameliorate mental disorders.
