DARe Live Level 1
Fundamentals of Attachment Styles

Summary

This foundational workshop for the DARe series of live trainings helps you understand the origins, patterns and dynamics of early attachment wounds, which are later “lived out” in our adult relationships.

You’ll gain essential skills you need to help yourself and your clients develop deeper connection, meaning, joy and intimacy in adult relationships by working to break unhealthy patterns, restore secure attachment and heal early attachment wounds.

The 4-day, online workshop blends didactic presentations, demonstrations and experiential exercises. Mental health professionals will learn how to apply and integrate attachment frameworks, techniques and corrective experiences to their clinical practice.

What will we cover?

  • How over-coupling dynamics in early childhood “family of origin” attachment patterns affect adult relationship patterns and behaviors.
  • How to identify and distinguish secure, avoidant ambivalent and disorganized attachment adaptations.
  • Which corrective experiences can help resolve fixed attachment patterns and emotional wounds.
  • How to restore secure attachment in a therapeutic setting more easily and effectively as you help clients repair and heal their early attachment wounds.

This training will be held ONLINE using Zoom. All necessary Zoom information––as well as login credentials to the learning portal where you can access additional resource materials, slide handouts and recordings of the training (for 60 days) will be emailed to students before the training.

Prerequisite: None

Note, this Level 1 training is a prerequisite for all other DARe or Attachment & Trauma Mastery training. All other remaining levels may be taken in any order.

Who Is This For?

  • Your're an intermediate to advanced clinician or therapist who wishes to assist their most challenging clients with resolving the victim-perpetrator power wound, repairing ruptured boundaries and overcoming the entanglement between the attachment system and an easily triggered threat response.
  • You’re a therapist, social worker or counselor who wants to learn the basics of attachment theory (and dynamics of the four attachment adaptations), so you can better understand how early childhood experiences and trauma affect adult relationships today.
  • You’d like to gain a better understanding of the relationship between trauma and insecure attachment patterns, so you can create a safe therapeutic environment and help clients feel safe, seen and heard.
  • You’re a newer therapist and mental health professional who wants to gain confidence and learn how to apply hands-on skills and interventions alongside colleagues, guided by an experienced expert.
  • You're someone who supports people who have experienced trauma––including first responders, medical professionals and individuals in fields like education, child welfare and family services—you’d like to learn about attachment to understand their issues and help them feel safe, seen and heard.
  • You’d like to learn a trauma- and attachment-based approach that encourages clients with insecure attachment issues to stay in therapy and participate more fully in their healing journey.
  • You’re already an accomplished clinician but want to know how to integrate targeted attachment-based tools, techniques and strategies with existing modalities to work more skillfully with complex or nuanced cases.
  • You’re committed to your professional development and would like to strengthen your own secure attachment skills, so you can accelerate the healing process for your clients from the first session.

Learning Objectives

  • Explain and describe three qualities of the secure attachment caregiver’s style.
  • Identify three parenting behaviors that might contribute to the avoidant attachment adaptation in a child.
  • Describe at least two characteristics of the avoidant attachment adaptation style.
  • Identify three parenting behaviors that might contribute to the anxious/ambivalent attachment adaptation in a child.
  • Describe at least two characteristics of the anxious/ambivalent attachment adaptation style.
  • Identify three parenting behaviors that might contribute to the disorganized attachment adaptation in a child.
  • Describe at least two characteristics of the disorganized attachment adaptation style.
  • Write one clinical corrective experience that may help a client return to secure attachment if they are exhibiting behaviors and patterns consistent with an insecure attachment adaptation (either avoidant, anxious/ambivalent or disorganized attachment style).
  • Describe how prosody (intonation, tone) by gender can be used to communicate comfort and safety to others in comparison to the use of voice in alerting others to threat.
  • Explain the importance of Stephen Porges’ theory related to the Social Engagement system and the correlation of threat extinction.
  • Using the results of a client’s Attachment Questionnaire, evaluate how the results determine their predominant attachment style.
  • Using the results of a client’s Attachment Questionnaire, evaluate how the results determine their predominant attachment style.
  • Identify two key areas that need to be tracked simultaneously when tracking an attachment wound.
  • Describe and explain how attachment adaptations and patterns can be fluid in different situations or relationships.
  • Name at least three ways to resource secure attachment for yourself and/or clients.
