Developmental Trauma, Attachment, and Addictive Disorders

The Meadows Outpatient Center

 

Childhood maltreatment can profoundly influence human development, resulting in a variety of mental, emotional, and social challenges – including addictive disorders. Attachment theory is a useful framework for understanding how early relational experiences can have far-reaching effects. Developmental trauma and attachment disturbances can lead to deficits in nervous system regulation. Addictive behaviors can be seen as an attempt at short-term regulation, with long-term consequences. This presentation will explore the scientific linkages between trauma, attachment, and addiction, and will offer ideas on how to help clients restore the capacity to self-regulate in healthy ways.

Learning Objectives

After this presentation, attendees will be able to:

1. Identify general principles of attachment theory.

2. Describe how attachment theory can be used to better conceptualize childhood maltreatment.

3. Describe the qualities of the two main dimensions of attachment insecurity: anxiety and avoidance.

The presentation  is free for Professionals!
