Understanding Attachment
Relationships are fundamental to human experience, and in this course you’ll learn about the common attachment styles and how they affect a person’s life.
As we develop, we develop relationships with those around us, particularly our primary caregiver. The style of relationship we build at this stage can become a blueprint for our relationships of the future, leading us to adopt one of four attachment styles.
This course will:
- Provide an understanding of why attachment is fundamental to our survival
- Explore the history of attachment theory
- Recognise the importance of a key attachment figure
- Consider attachment behaviours through the lens of connection
- Identify the four key attachment styles
- Reflect on the attachment history of someone you know
- Create a strategy to support the attachment style of a student/client or child in care
- Explore mental health issues common to attachment styles
