Attachment: Make every session a safe adventure for you and your client – Susan Johnson

*** Proof of Product ***

Exploring the Essential Features of “Attachment: Make every session a safe adventure for you and your client – Susan Johnson”

To practice on-target, effective, relevant, and empirically based psychotherapy we need a map to the core processes of personality growth and dysfunction. Attachment-focused interventions take us to the heart of the matter with every client and show us how to move them into emotional balance, secure connection with self and others, and resilience in the face of life’s challenges. Every session then becomes a safe adventure for both therapist and client.
