Circle of Security Introductory Training

About the Introductory Training

Many people have taken the one-day introductory training and applied the learning to their current work. This training provides a basic understanding of attachment theory via the Circle of Security (COS) and an introduction to treatment planning and clinical application using the COS. Particular attention will be given to the essential features of both healthy and unhealthy attachment. Participants will learn new ways to understand the central characteristics of secure attachment and its importance across the life span.
