PY-8010: Love & Attachment in Families, Couples

In this weekend course, we will discuss love and attachment from four perspectives: theory/measurement; development in families and couples; evidence-based interventions; and as an essential foundation for the therapeutic relationship. Through lecture, discussion, videos, and reflective exercises, we will explore the numerous advantages of attachment security, and the developmental risks attendant to attachment trauma. Drawing from bio-psycho-social-cultural sources, we will discuss the plasticity of attachment styles, and the limitations of diagnostic categories. We?ll also consider our own attachment histories, and the ways in which the therapeutic relationship is as specific as any other.
