Therapeutic Alliance Part 6: Attachment Types and Application

Therapy is an intensely focused relationship that involves acceptance, trust, unconditional positive regard, hope, attunement, tolerance, and mending empathic strains and ruptures. There is also emotional contagion between a therapist and patient, with transference and countertransference. On this episode, I talk about how attachment theory can be a powerful predictor in helping someone move forward past trauma and develop attachment to their therapist in a healthy and therapeutic way. There are no conflicts of interest for this episode. Link to Full Blog: https://www.psychiatrypodcast.com/psy...
