Description:
The therapeutic relationship is the heart of therapeutic practice.

Dr. Wallin provides a detailed case example of attachment theory in action: how David Wallin Ph.D., Clinical Psychology, used his knowledge of the patient’s attachment style and Wallin’s own self- awareness to salvage a difficult session and deepen his relationship with the patient.
