The ATTACHMENT Coalition is a group of professionals, who have voluntarily come together to study and collaborate concerning children and their families experiencing an attachment disturbance, trauma and adoption issues. The COALITION also offers support and education to adoption agencies and parent organizations.

COALITION members share in the core belief that families are an integral part of any treatment and fundamental to all work performed. The goal of our work is to repair relationship problems within the family, often using Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy.

COALITION members have specialized training, which is ongoing, and years of experience in assessing and treating children with adoption and/or relationship problems. Our shared belief in attachment theory, trauma research, and treatment philosophies, gives us a tremendous base of knowledge from which to assess and develop comprehensive treatments.

Further, as an obligation to the children we serve, we have networked within our communities to find therapists and evaluators in other disciplines, who provide services beyond our treatment scope, while sharing our philosophy. These affiliations broaden the range of our overall service. As a result, local professionals in other disciplines, as well as experts around the country, are available to provide a child or family with additional comprehensive services.
