Course Description

This course is based on my book Attachment Disorders: Treatment Strategies for Traumatized Children. I have studied and treated attachment disorders and attachment related issues since the early 1980s.

This course was designed for:

  • parents,
  • foster parents,
  • adoptive parents,
  • child care providers,
  • educators, and
  • professionals working with children identified as having attachment disorders or Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD).

Traditional behavior management strategies typically do not work with children with attachment disorders. Learn what does work, and why these children behave as they do. You can work at your own pace, retake quizzes to achieve your desired grade, earn certification or CEU credit for your work, and access the instructor directly for your personal questions or problems working with children with attachment disorders.
