Attachment, Neurodevelopmentand PsychopathologyPatricia M. Crittenden, Ph.D.

Patricia McKinsey Crittenden, Ph.D.This 3-day course focuses on the development, prevention, and

treatment of psychological disorder. It weaves together theory,

human development, assessment, case examples, and treatment

applications to reframe maladaptive behavior in terms of strategies

for self-protection. The course focuses on development from infancy

to adulthood, emphasizing the process of adaptation and

developmental pathways that carry risk for psychopathology. The

model used, the Dynamic-Maturational Model (DMM) of attachment

and adaptation. The DMM is relevant to individuals who are at-risk,have been exposed to danger, display disturbed or maladaptive

behavior, or are diagnosed as having a psychiatric disorder. A

particular emphasis is cultural influences on attachment.

Patricia Crittenden hasmany years experience asan academic andpractitioner in the fields of child abuse, attachmenttheory, and family therapy.After her training with MaryAinsworth, she served onthe Faculties of Psychologyat the Universities of Virginia and Miami. She

In 2004, she received a Career Achievement Awardfrom the European Family Therapy Association. In addition,she has published more than 100 scientific papers andseveral books.

The course is structured developmentally and consists of lecture

with slides, videotapes, and interview transcripts to demonstrate the

patterns and principles of development. A set of readings and

exercises, tied to each day’s material, are offered.

COURSE OVERVIEW

Each day includes:

1. a developmental overview,

2. information processing as it affects self- and child-protective behavior,

3. description of new self-protective strategies that

develop at the age level,

4. an application of DMM ideas to generate a novel

approach to disorder 

5. treatment strategies drawn from all the major 

theories of treatment and selected on the basis of 

information processing and strategy.

An introduction is given to the DMM assessments of 

attachment:

• CARE-Index  (infancy from birth to 24 months)

• AinsworthStrangeSituation(SSP , 11-15 months)

Target audience

This activity is designed for psychiatrists, intermediate and advanced

psychologists, social workers, licensed proessional counselors,

addiction proessionals and other mental health care proessionals.

Practice gap

The traditional practice of psychiatry has relied on the expertise andexperience of the clinician, built on knowledge of psychopathology.

Despite substantial progress demonstrating the eectiveness o evidence-

based treatment; however, stigma continues to shroud mental illness

and many patients do not receive the treatment they need. Knowledge

gaps exist between the known prevalence of psychiatric disorders and

the identication o these disorders in suering individuals, as well as

between currently practiced treatment methods and new evidence-based

treatment interventions. Progress in genetics, molecular neurobiology

and brain imaging is elucidating our understanding o psychiatric

disorders as brain disorders, and knowledge o new neuroscience holds

the best promise or de-stigmatizing psychiatry and o enrolling patients

in benecial treatments.

Learning objectives

At the conclusion of this activity, participants should be able to:

• Recognize the societal impact of neuropsychiatric disease and positive

discoveries in the eld to address unmet needs o people living with

mental illness.

• Articulate how mental disorders can be approached as brain disorders

based on dierences in the trajectory o brain development.
