Attachment, Neurodevelopment and Psychopathology online course – Open to everyone

Attachment, Neurodevelopment and Psychopathology

This course will be delivered remotely using Zoom.

This course focuses on the development, prevention and treatment of psychological disorder from infancy to adolescence. It weaves together theory, human development, assessment, case examples and treatment applications to reframe maladaptive behavior in terms of strategies for self-protection. The course emphasizes the process of adaptation and developmental pathways that carry risk for psychopathology.

An introduction is given to the DMM suite of assessments of attachment and adaptation:

• CARE-Index (ICI, infancy from birth to 15 months)
• Ainsworth Strange Situation (SSP, 11-15 months)
• Toddler CARE-Index (TCI, 16-36 months)
• Preschool Assessment of Attachment (PAA, 2 – 5 years)
• School-age Assessment of Attachment (SAA, 6-13 years)
• Family Drawings (4 -13 years)
• Transition to Adulthood Attachment Interview (TAAI, 16-25 years)
• Adult Attachment Interview (AAI, mid-20’s forward)

NOTE: The ANP course is a prerequisite to all assessment courses, e.g. the Adult Attachment Interview.

The ANP course will lead to the ANP certificate program.
