Description

Understanding the attachment between parent and child is key to a strong and nurturing relationship. Theraplay is an attachment-focused model of parenting that uses a sequence of play activities rooted in neuroscience to help parents connect with their child. This approach is particularly effective with looked after and adopted children.

By gaining an understanding of the basic theory behind Theraplay, parents and carers can learn practical ideas for applying the model to everyday family life. The book provides an overview of the model, along with everyday case studies and easy language, to help build confidence and develop new skills for emotional bonding, empathy, and acceptance.

With Theraplay, parents can create a closer relationship with their child, based on a deeper understanding of attachment and emotional connection. This book offers a valuable resource for anyone looking to improve their relationship with their child, and is particularly relevant for those working with looked after and adopted children.
