Attachment theory into the future: A workshop with Sir Richard Bowlby on 14th Nov 2014

Mindsite is pleased to announce that Sir Richard Bowlby will return to Stockport on Friday 14th November 2014 to run a workshop on Attachment theory. It is a repeat of an event that he previously ran for Mindsite in February 2013.  Sir Richard presented the workshop to a large audience of counsellors, psychotherapists, psychologists, teachers, educationalists and others interested in child care and child development. Sir Richard provided a retrospective analysis of his father’s work and looked forward to the future.

While this event is a repeat, Sir Richard tailors the content to the audience and works in a highly interactive manner.  As a result, each event is unique and we envisage that previous attendees may wish to return.

Before his formal retirement, Sir Richard worked as a scientific photographer in various medical research institutions where he provided visual aids for communicating research findings. He now gives lectures to healthcare professionals using video material and personal insights to promote a much broader understanding of his father’s work on attachment theory. He supports a wide range of organisations that address challenging attachment issues, and is seeking ways to help the general public benefit from a better understanding of attachment relationships.

In 2004 he gave the opening lecture at the Winnicott Memorial Lecture; and this was published in book form by Karnac, on behalf of the Winnicott Clinic of Psychotherapy.

The event, which includes lunch, will be held in the comfortable, relaxed environment of Cheshire Conferences and Events at Edgeley Park Stadium, Stockport.

The cost is £85 per delegate (£65 for students).  For reservations made before 14th August there will be an ‘early bird’ rate of £75 per delegate (£55 for students)  We are also offering group discounts of £65 per delegate for two people and £55 per delegate for three or more.  The pricing reflects Sir Richard’s wish to reach large audiences.
