The current study addressed whether the attachment organizations of novice couple and family therapists were associated with couples\u2019 experiences of their therapists, therapeutic alliance, session impact, and emotionally focused couple therapy (EFT) fidelity (i.e., especially as related to targeting and working with attachment needs and overt and underlying emotions). Novice couple and family therapists delivered EFT, an attachment\u2010based approach, to couples in a simulated session and an embedded multicase study design guided a cross\u2010case analysis. Findings indicated that secure therapists, when compared to their insecure peers, were more competent at working with attachment needs, as well as the overt and underlying emotions of their clients. Secure therapists perceived themselves as being more skilled in emotion regulation, which may have contributed to their abilities to remain attuned to their clients\u2019 attachment needs and emotional expression, even in the face of emotional arousal in session. Couples of insecure therapists also reported greater alliance splits. Future research is needed to further explore the dyadic influences of both therapists\u2019 and clients\u2019 attachment organizations, as well as the training and supervision practices these findings implicate.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1752-0606.2012.00290.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,5,15]],"date-time":"2012-05-15T05:41:28Z","timestamp":1337060488000},"page":"50-62","update-policy":"http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":13,"title":["Exploring the Influence of the Attachment Organizations of Novice Therapists on their Delivery of Emotionally Focused Therapy for Couples"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"38","author":[{"given":"Andrea K.","family":"Wittenborn","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2012,5,15]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_8_2_1","first-page":"16","article-title":"A psychometric study of the Adult Attachment Interview: Reliability and discriminant validity","volume":"22","author":"Bakermans\u2010Kranenburg M.
