To Contact Ken Reactive Attachment Disorder I had heard of the terms before, but only a few months ago “reactive attachment disorder”, sometimes known as “detachment disorder”, or simply “attachment disorder”, held no personal significance to me. My wife and I took our nephew in to live with us a year ago last January. While we knew, and anticipated that there would be problems, we had no idea as to the extent of his disability. Our nephew has recently been diagnosed with Reactive Attachment Disorder, or RAD, and despite the fact that this is a disorder that was barely on my screen of consciousness six months ago, my wife and I both have come to understand it reasonably well. Making it go away is another matter entirely. As a paramedic for 20 years, I have come to appreciate signs and symptoms pointing to specific diagnoses, yet was astounded to see how closely and how clearly our nephew fit the pattern for reactive attachment disorder. I only wish that treating the problem were as easy as diagnosing it appears to be. My wife and I have been devouring all of the information we can find on attachment disorders and, as we have learned more, we’ll be adding to this site. If you’ve just begun your own search for ways in which you can help your child, this is a good place to start. We have included links to books that may be helpful and to other useful sites we’ve found on the Internet. We’ve also created a support board on Delphi Forums, and you can find a link to it in our Books and Resources section, along with other support forums on the subject.’

Welcome to the Attachment Disorder Site Visit our Sponsors Sober 24 ATTACh of Eastern PA Youth Link of America Attachment Disorders range in severity. In fact, the attachment continuum runs from securely attached through degrees of attachment issues all the way to those who suffer from severe attachment disorder as in my son's case. With the addition of hundreds of children adopted from institutional settings and from the foster care system, it is important for all of us to become educated regarding the potential and unique problems these children and their families face. It is by this understanding that we can forge ahead and learn to help our families heal. We must also remember that all adopted and foster care kids do not suffer from attachment disorder. A lot has to do with the individuals themselves - their physiological and psychological make-up, the type of environment they were in and the duration they were in that environment. With this in mind, we do not want people to become wary of adoption because of attachment disorder. We want people to become educated about it. I often wish I had known what was wrong sooner as I look back on years that were spent utilizing ineffective therapies and parenting strategies. We would have started on the road to healing sooner.

One source for current "medical" understanding of autism. Excellent overview and perspective on multiple treatment approaches. This is a super first or only book for general information on autism." review comment by a reader. Thinking in Pictures : And Other Reports from My Life With Autism ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS ON AUTISM EVER WRITTEN! Anyone connected in any way with autism or Asperger's syndrome - families, professionals, teachers, people with autism and AS themselves - should read this book. Anyone who has ever wondered what it is like to be autistic should read this book. Anyone who doesn't fall into one of the above categories should read this book anyway, and learn something about a world that "normal" people never even dream of. In this unprecedented book, Temple Grandin, a gifted animal scientist who is also autistic, delivers a report on autism, written from her unique perspective.

Year Long Training Series The Attachment Center of South Carolina has been working with emotionally disturbed children since 1977. We have been providing post adoption and clinical services since 1989. Our therapists have been trained by a number of well-known practitioners. We believe in order for a therapist to have a well-rounded knowledge of the theories, practices and program development they must be trained by a variety of professionals and agencies. It is under this philosophy that we have developed the following training program. Therapists will be required to attend one, sometimes two, weekend training sessions each month or quarter. These weekends will be structured as follows: Friday/Saturday Sunday (Sessions end at 4:00 pm) Session Begins 15-minute break Lunch 15-minute break Break Session ends Some sessions may last longer on Friday and Saturday night depending on the subject matter and trainer. Trainees should be prepared to stay as late as 7:00 pm on Friday and Saturday nights.
