ATTACh, the
leading international attachment education and advocacy association,
has a registration process for attachment professionals. A major
goal of this registry is to help the parents and guardians of
children with attachment difficulties learn about qualified
treatment professionals.
Types of Registered
Clinical Memberships include:
Registered
Clinician: An individual that has submitted a registration packet
and has been accepted by the ATTACh peer review committee.
Registered
Clinical Organization: An organization that has submitted a
registration packet and has been accepted by the ATTACh peer
review committee.
Registered
Employee of Registered Clinical Organization: An employee of
a Registered Clinical Organization that wishes to have additional

Those who
have completed the registration process have met specific objective
requirements as outlined on the Registered
Clinical Membership Application, and have agreed to abide
by ATTACh's Practice Standards as outlined in our Professional
Practice Manual. As an organization representing parents
as well as professionals, we wanted to find a way to help families
who desperately are seeking therapy for their children. These
registered clinical members are offered as a resource for families
with the understanding that families will use discretion when
selecting a therapist.
