About this listen
A practical guide to implementing the rich theory of attachment for treating mental health challenges in children.
This book both explains and illustrates how the practice of child mental health professionals can be enhanced, whatever their treatment approach, to encourage engagement, resilience, and development in children with mental health problems. Alongside practical recommendations, Daniel Hughes and Ben Gurney-Smith use dialogue from clinical work to illustrate applications of these principles from Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy as well as other attachment-based practices with parents and children. This "little book" will demystify how attachment theory-one of today's most in-demand approaches-can actually be brought into clinical work.
Topics include regulating emotional states; repairing ongoing relationships; establishing an attachment-based therapeutic relationship; accepting a child's inner life; assessing the caregiver's need for safety, regulation, and reflection; the importance of nonverbal and verbal conversations in facilitating secure attachment; and strengthening the mind of the child.

An adoptive parents view
I have 2 adopted daughters. The eldest is 17, autistic, has cptsd from birth family, school challenges and bullying, and attachment disorder amongst other mental health challenges. She has a massive desire to quit her life.
CAMHS and social care have frequently not had the correct approach when dealing with her so I am educating myself to enable me to help her before all is lost.
I have found this audio book extremely informative and helpful.

Great information
So many useful suggestions and guidance. Especially useful was hearing the alternative ways people might communicate that are effective than the version where there’s been no intervention.

Annoying narrator
I found this narrator very hard to listen to - with an affected softness of voice throughout. I listen to audiobooks read by people of different genders of different nationalities and none his bothered me
Like this. I find it’s better if listened to on a faster speed, but I still have made little progress with this book in a couple of years despite several attempts. This may just be me… I should perhaps have listened to the sample first.
