Registration

Application Instructions

In 2001 ATTACh initiated a registration process for clinicians and agencies. The purpose of the registry is to:

●  provide more credibility to the term “attachment therapist,”

●  provide more credibility to your knowledge and attachment training

●  give parents and other professionals access to names of potential treatment

    agencies and clinicians

●  allow parents and other professionals to contact you directly

●  supply you with a support and communication network to exchange

    information and/or ideas

As of July 1, 2002 only registered members of ATTACh have be given as resources to inquiries for clinical services. In an effort to assist families and workers to make informed decisions, ATTACh will print your registration information on our website; and mail out this same information to inquiries who ask. If you wish to be part of ATTACh's resource listing of registered clinicians and agencies, please submit the following documents. Requirements are subject to change. Please check the website prior to submission.

Registering agencies must submit the complete packet of information about all staff who will be working with attachment clients, identifying the lead clinician. Clinicians working in a registered agency who wish to be listed separately and receive membership benefits need only pay the membership fee. Clinicians in private practice and clinical employees of non-registered agencies must submit the entire packet of information to become registered.
