October 4, 2024 — Attachment Theory
[47 pages]
We will discuss, in broad terms, the history and impact of attachment theory on psychoanalysis. Slade’s article provides an overview of Attachment categories, as well as clinical implications in working with patients with different attachment styles. It will be interesting to consider this framework in your analytic work with patients—an additional perspective to perhaps shed light on the complexities and the challenges of analytic work.
