About M-MAT Multi-Modal Attachment Therapy: Healing

Some of the most challenging children to help are those who have been injured early in life in their first relationships through disrupted or injured attachment. These children can be both hurting and hurtful to others, and are often anxious and depressed, yet push away that which they most need for healing. Traditional child therapies are largely ineffective, and parents or caregivers often feel hopeless in the face of their child’s needs. This book brings new hope for healing to these children and their families.  Catherine Young brings over 20 years of experience working with attachment injured children and their families to a new, structured and easily applied attachment therapy model: Multi-Modal Attachment Therapy (M-MAT). With compassion and respect for children and families, M-MAT blends a number of modalities to create a powerful, cohesive, and comprehensive therapy that integrates both right and left brain interventions. In clear, concise language, Young lays forth for the reader an easy to follow roadmap for understanding and implementing M-MAT with children and their caregivers. She additionally outlines how to work with those children who are most at risk: children who do not have a permanent, committed caregiver. M-MAT Multi-Modal Attachment Therapy: Healing Attachment Injuries in Children and Families, provides a brief overview of attachment theory and discussion of children with attachment injuries, but focuses primarily on the how-to of implementing this therapy model to provide healing to children and families. Many interventions and examples are included throughout the book.  It is intended as a practical manual for therapists, but also holds some use for parents and other professionals in understanding attachment and approaches to working with children with attachment injuries.
