These videos specifically focus on the barriers to attachment and why trying to rebuild the attachment bond with the child is not always easy nor entirely successful. These lectures were produced with the aim of helping adoptive parent struggling with their children’s behaviour, to begin to understand the complexities and the challenges facing their children.

These lectures specifically focus on dissociation as the result of trauma and the impact it has on the child and family. Signs of dissociation in children are discussed and subjective experiences of dissociation in children are explained at the hand of creative art and children.

"These lectures are an excellent introduction to the subject of child dissociation. Renee Marks presents the topic in a clear and succinct manner, taking us through its aetiology and the enormous potential for improvement and resolution."
