M-MAT Manual
M-MAT Multi-Modal Attachment Therapy: An Integrated Whole-Brain Approach to Attachment Injuries in Children and Families
This book is the manual for the M-MAT Model. Although the training stands on its own, this book is highly recommended as a companion for the M-MAT training series.
You can find or order it wherever books are sold.
For Parents
Understanding Attachment Injuries in Children and Families and How to Help: A Guide for Parents and Caregivers
This book is for parents and caregivers. It explains attachment and contains many practical strategies in easy-to-read, conversational language. It also dovetails nicely with the M-MAT Model and can be an invaluable tool in work with families!
