Dr. Arietta Slade will discuss the implications of attachment and mentalization theory and research for clinical work with young children and their families. While attachment theory has been instrumental to the infant mental health movement and has transformed many areas of developmental research, it has had less of an impact on the way clinicians approach their work with preschool and school age children. These approaches provide powerful ways of understanding how and why development (in all its complexities) may be disrupted, and of thinking about how to intervene with the child, and the family. Dr. Slade will present some of the core principles of attachment and mentalization theory and then outline their direct implications for clinical practice, particularly in children struggling with adversity and trauma.
Learning Objectives:
Participants will learn the core principles of attachment and mentalization theory.
Participants will learn about recent advances in trauma theory and treatment.
Participants will learn about how these advances pertain to psychoanalytically oriented therapy with children.
