[Solved] Attachment Theory Discussion Responses

The adolescent stage can be described as a time when there is a loss of innocence and a pre-entry into adulthood. A large part of being an adolescent is beginning that process of stepping out into the world and learning about oneself as a unique and autonomous individual. This movement out into the world is contingent upon the knowledge that this young person will have a safe and secure home to return to at the end of the day. If a traumatic loss or event has occurred in the adolescent’s life, there may be no safe base to which this individual can return. Attachment theory teaches us that a young persons ability to attach/engage with peers, family, and other potential support systems is an important aspect of the developmental process. The adolescent stage of development is important because it provides a window into how the adolescent relates to others, which allows the clinician to choose the appropriate intervention.
