 Attachment-Based Family Therapy: Strengthening Family Cohesion

 

Attachment-Based Family Therapy (ABFT) is a manualized, empirically informed and
supported, family therapy model specifically designed to target family and individual processes associated with adolescent suicide and depression. However, ABFT can improve general family risk and protective factors associated with youth struggling with trauma, eating disorders, and anxiety.


ABFT emerges from interpersonal theories suggesting adolescent mental health can be
precipitated exacerbated or buffered against by the quality of interpersonal family relationships. Tested with diverse families, including low-income, minority families, single and divorced parents, it is a trust-based, emotion-focused psychotherapy model aiming to repair interpersonal ruptures and rebuild an emotionally protective, secure-based, parent-child relationship. The therapy model is trauma and process focused yet provides structure, and focus over a short time frame (12 to 16 weeks). Treatment is characterized by five treatment tasks: a) reframing the therapy to focus on interpersonal relationships b) building alliance with the adolescent, c) building alliance with the parents, d) facilitating conversations to resolve attachment ruptures and e) promoting adolescent autonomy and competency.
 
In this workshop, Dr Levy will use lecture, case studies and video review to provide an overview of the theoretical principles, research support, and clinical strategies for ABFT. Dr. Levy will review how attachment theory, emotional regulation, and trauma resolution inform the delivery of this treatment approach. She will review the goals and

structure of the five treatment tasks that provide a roadmap for delivering this

interpersonally focused psychotherapy effectively and rapidly.
