Attachment theory is a framework for understanding human behaviour that helps us identify the nature and source of an individual or group’s responses to anxiety, change, threat or danger, and can be used across a range of therapeutic interventions. Integrated within the first edition of Attachment-based Practice with Adults but bound and sold separately for the second edition The Interviewing Guide lets readers see how the three core attachment strategies – distancing (‘A’), preoccupied (‘C’) and balanced (‘B’), influenced by procedural, sensory, semantic, episodic and integrative memory systems – are typically expressed in verbal and non-verbal communication. Reproducible discourse marker sheets allow readers to keep a log of interviews so as to become more familiar with patterns of discourse and their underlying functions.

Over recent decades, attachment theory has become central to understanding not only childhood development and how people survive and grow, but also the capacity of partners, parents and carers to offer safe and consistent care, particularly under difficult conditions. Updating a bestselling guide, Attachment-based Practice with Adults, Second Edition integrates attachment theory with other concepts to explore how we can understand and respond to troubled adults. By integrating audio, visual and written information around five characters and their stories, the guide shows how to make sense of, talk with and relate to individuals whose past relationships have caused them difficulties. The Second Edition also includes Attachment-based Practice with Adults: The Interviewing Guide, previously part of the manual but now included as a separate publication and also available to purchase separately.
