For many adults, attachment wounds are not simple stories of neglect or loss—they are experiences of fear without escape. The disorganized attachment pattern lies at the intersection of longing and terror, producing instability in emotion, identity, and relationship.
This comprehensive clinical workbook offers an in-depth guide to understanding, assessing, and treating disorganized attachment across the therapeutic journey. Drawing on contemporary research and integrative practice, Ana Mesinezi presents a structured yet compassionate framework for healing: from stabilisation and affect regulation to reparenting, relational repair, and the development of earned security.
Each chapter combines accessible theory, case vignettes, and practical exercises for both therapist and client. Reflection boxes and fillable fields encourage experiential learning and supervision dialogue.
Grounded in clinical realism and written with warmth and precision, this volume invites practitioners to transform fear-based relating into secure connection—within self, in therapy, and beyond.
