Description

Working with Relational Trauma in Children's Residential Care: A Guide to Using Dyadic Developmental Practice This guide provides an overview of Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy (DDP), a therapeutic approach based on attachment theory, to support children who have experienced relational trauma. By applying the principles of DDP, adults can help children feel more secure and open to others, using conscious techniques such as PACE (playfulness, acceptance, curiosity, and empathy). The book explores how to integrate the PACE model into daily practice, including conversations with children and colleagues, and balance physical safety with relational safety in secure care situations. Case studies and expert guidance from the authors demonstrate how to apply DDP in residential care settings, promoting a culture of support throughout the care structure. By reading this guide, you'll gain practical insights into using DDP to support children in residential care, and learn how to create a more secure and supportive environment for them.
