Mentalizing in the Development and Treatment of Attachment Trauma

Mentalizing in the Development and Treatment of Attachment Trauma

This book brings together the latest knowledge from attachment research and neuroscience to provide a new approach to treating trauma for therapists from different professional disciplines and diverse theoretical backgrounds. The field of trauma suffers from fragmentation as brands of therapy proliferate in relation to a multiplicity of psychiatric disorders. This fragmentation calls for a fresh clinical approach to treating trauma. Pinpointing at once the problem and potential solution the author places the experience of being psychologically alone in unbearable emotional states at the heart of trauma in attachment relationships. This trauma results from a failure of mentalizing that is empathic attunement to emotional distress. Psychotherapy offers an opportunity for healing by restoring mentalizing that is fostering psychological attunement in the context of secure attachment relationships-in the psychotherapy relationship and in other attachment relationships. The book gives a unique overview of common attachment patterns in childhood and adulthood setting the stage for understanding attachment trauma which is most conspicuous in maltreatment but also more subtly evident in early and repeated failures of attunement in attachment relationships. | Mentalizing in the Development and Treatment of Attachment Trauma

The Power of Place in Place Attachment

The Power of Place in Place Attachment

This book provides geographical perspectives on the complex and multifaceted relationship between people and their lived environments. Scholars with varied regional theoretical and topical specialties offer chapters that explore different aspects of a phenomenon so pervasive that no conception of social or political action can afford to ignore it. In the process of spatial organization and differentiation people develop emotional attachments to specific places as well as people objects and practices associated with those places. Place attachments thereby shape everyday routines (e. g. routes to work shopping social interactions) major life choices (e. g. places of residence education and vacations) and identities (e. g. civic national and religious). These attachments occur across multiple scales from personal dwellings to community region and homeland. It is our hope that this book reveals synergies between geography and other disciplines engaging with place attachment whilst invigorating research on the topic. The Power of Place in Place Attachment will be of great value to researchers and scholars of geography identity mobility and urban landscape change. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of Geographical Review.

E-attachment and Online Communication The Changing Context of the Clinical Diagnosis and Psychological Treatment

E-attachment and Online Communication The Changing Context of the Clinical Diagnosis and Psychological Treatment

This book examines the use of modern technologies in clinical psychological practice. It considers how we define attachment in an age where changes in technology and the COVID-19 pandemic have increased the prevalence of online contact in the process of diagnosis and psychological treatment. Based on an attachment paradigm that is relatively unexplored the book outlines how modern online contact influences mental health and development along with the therapeutic relationship between client and professional. It discusses people’s relationships with new technologies how relationships can be established using these technologies and how these technologies affect professional relationships between psychologists and their clients which they define as e-attachment. In the context of new technologies the book draws on neurobiology and clinical psychology to consider mental health social functioning and emotional regulation. Presenting both theory and examples from case studies this cutting-edge book will be of great interest to researchers academics and post-graduate students in the fields of clinical psychology psychotherapy and mental health. Those also carrying out research into digital and online learning within the field of mental health will also benefit from this text.

Addictions From an Attachment Perspective Do Broken Bonds and Early Trauma Lead to Addictive Behaviours?

Addictions From an Attachment Perspective Do Broken Bonds and Early Trauma Lead to Addictive Behaviours?

This outstanding book is an important collection of papers from the 2013 John Bowlby Memorial Conference by accomplished clinicians from different modalities who share their experience of working with people with different kinds of addiction. The papers bring together an in-depth understanding that addictions are a response to and hold the pain of broken attachments and are best treated within healthy interpersonal relationships. For a long time the person with an addiction has been seen as the problem with society being able to live in denial of the causes. These papers open up innovative and effective ways of working with people troubled by addiction from an attachment-informed perspective.

Ritual Abuse and Mind Control The Manipulation of Attachment Needs

Ritual Abuse and Mind Control The Manipulation of Attachment Needs

People who have survived ritual abuse or mind control experiments have often been silenced accused of lying mocked and disbelieved. Clinicians working with survivors often find themselves isolated facing the same levels of disbelief and denial from other professionals within the mental health field. This report - based on proceedings from a conference on the subject - presents knowledge and experience from both clinicians and survivors to promote understanding and recovery from organized and ritual abuse mind control and programming. The book combines clinical presentations survivors' voices and research material to help address the ways in which we can work clinically with mind control and cult programming from the perspective of relational psychotherapy. | Ritual Abuse and Mind Control The Manipulation of Attachment Needs

Rights for Aborigines

Rights for Aborigines

'We cannot help but wonder why it has taken the white Australians just on 200 years to recognise us as a race of people' Bill Onus 1967Aboriginal people were the original landowners in Australia yet this was easily forgotten by Europeans settling this old continent. Labelled as a primitive and dying race by the end of the nineteenth century most Aborigines were denied the right to vote to determine where their families would live and to maintain their cultural traditions. In this groundbreaking work Bain Attwood charts a century-long struggle for rights for Aborigines in Australia. He tracks the ever-shifting perceptions of race and history and how these impacted on the ideals and goals of campaigners for rights for indigenous people. He looks at prominent Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal campaigners and what motivated their involvement in key incidents and movements. Drawing on oral and documentary sources he investigates how they found enough common ground to fight together for justice and equality for Aboriginal people. Rights for Aborigines illuminates questions of race history political and social rights that are central to our understanding of relations between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal Australians.
