  An attachment-based treatment of maltreated children and young people
 
 
Title: An attachment-based treatment of maltreated children and young people
Author: Hughes, Dan
Appeared in: Attachment and human development
Paging: Volume 6 (2004) nr. 3 pages 263-278
Year: 2004-09
Contents: Repetitive, intrafamilial abuse and neglect leads to a complex array of deficiencies and symptoms that reflect both the traumatic effects of maltreatment on children as well as the effects of their failing to develop a coherent pattern of attachment behaviours toward their caregivers. This article will attempt to describe principles of a psychological treatment for maltreated children and young people who have been placed in foster care and adoptive homes. This treatment, based on attachment theory, provides dyadic interventions that aim to be transforming and integrative. The co-regulation of affect and the co-construction of meaning are central to the treatment process, just as they are central features in attachment security.
