The book by Dr. Karl Brisch, a specialist in child and adolescent psychiatry and the author of a psychotherapy method based on attachment theory, is dedicated to describing the SAFE® program. Its main goal is to develop child-parent attachment, family competence, and create conditions for healthy child development. By participating in the SAFE® program, parents learn to better understand their children’s emotional needs and to interact sensitively with them. Children who have established strong emotional bonds with their parents exhibit more social behavior, are capable of empathy, creativity, and are resilient and stable in stressful situations.
