A new supervision project

Supervision through the lens of DMM

Attachment strategies in the focus of professional observation

We are opening a new ambitious project where supervision becomes a space for deep observation and understanding. At the centre of attention are the attachment strategies of the clients we work with across the most diverse therapeutic modalities.

What once saved a client is still at work today — but now it no longer protects from danger, but from closeness, change and feelings.

Through the review of client video recordings we will explore how one and the same strategy can be both a protection and an obstacle — a trap.

The DMM lens makes it possible to see deeper patterns behind habitual reactions, to understand their motivation and history of development, as well as the direction of movement towards the desired changes. This helps not only to fine-tune the therapeutic process, but also to build a clearer plan for real, sustainable change.

For specialists who are familiar with the DMM model and are ready to expand their professional tools beyond its limits

Sessions with Clark Baim

We will learn to recognise exactly how attachment strategies work, to see and classify them, and to use this information in therapeutic work. This will add a new perspective to familiar processes — and perhaps even create something fundamentally new.
