What does the training include?
This seminar offers an introduction to attachment and parenting, exploring the parent-child relationship and potential challenges that may arise. It will delve into the historical context of attachment theory and explain the differences between organised and disorganised attachment styles.
The seminar will examine key concepts in parenting, including intersubjectivity, internal working models, and parental reflective functioning. Participants are encouraged to familiarise themselves with these fundamental constructs prior to attending, as they will be applied to a detailed case study analysis.
