This handbook of therapy provides both theoretical understanding, and a wealth of suggestions for daily practice. The coverage includes a cross-scientific theoretical overview, the classic symptoms of disturbed attachment, and treatment at different stages of development, from measures to ensure a healthy attachment early in life to treatment at different stages of personality development to adulthood. Each step includes many examples from daily practice as well as checklists at different stages. Sections on adoption issues, how to teach the AD schoolchild, sexual abuse and AD give tools and inspiration for the reader's own research.
