Attachment Based Family Therapy (ABFT) is a proven, powerful approach that helps clients heal through connection.
Grounded in attachment science and family systems, ABFT gives therapists a step-by-step roadmap for repairing ruptures, rebuilding trust, improving communication, and creating real emotional safety in relationships.
With more than two decades of clinical research behind it, ABFT has been shown to dramatically reduce depression, anxiety, suicidality, self-harm, and relational conflict - because it goes beyond surface-level change to help relationships heal from the inside out.
Originally developed for adolescents and their families, ABFT is now being used by therapists working with teens, young adults, parents, couples, and families - bringing the same transformative, present-moment healing to a wide range of clients.
This free training offers a rare opportunity to learn a proven, evidence-based approach that will transform how you think about attachment and healing --
-- and empower you to guide clients through real-time repair that strengthens their most important relationships and helps them build a future free from the pain of disconnection.
*There will be two 15-minute breaks and a 60-minute lunch break. Break times will be at the speaker's discretion.
NOTE: Your free all-access pass includes the immediate option to upgrade to the Live or Self-Study CE Packages.
Guy Diamond, PhD is professor emeritus at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine and was associate professor at Drexel University in the College of Nursing and Health Profession until he retired in 2023. At Drexel, he was the director of the Center for Family Intervention Science (CFIS). His primary work has been in the area of youth suicide prevention and treatment research. On the prevention side, he has created a program focused on training, screening, and triage to be implemented in non-behavioral health settings. On the treatment side, he has focused on the development and testing of attachment-based family therapy (ABFT), especially for teens struggling with depression and suicide. ABFT has now been applied to children and young adults, LGBTQ youth and adults, and adopted in clinics all over the world where it is used as a transdiagnostic approach to patient mental health and ruptures in family attachment. Dr. Diamond is president of the ABFT International Training Institute which disseminates this model around the world.
