Attachment theory and research: Application to clinical practice.

Abstract

Although Bowlby's attachment theory has had a profound effect on research in developmental psychology, its application to clinical practice has barely been explored. The theory and its origins are outlined, and attachment-theory concepts that may have clinical applicability are explored, with particular attention to the construct of internal working models. In addition, psychotherapeutic approaches using attachment-theory concepts are summarized.
