Loss, sadness, depression, are issues that seem especially poignant during the pandemic. These were the three main topics of John Bowlby’s 1980 book, the third book in his trilogy on attachment. In chapter 4 of that book Bowlby described information processing in an attachment context as a better way to describe psychological defense mechanisms. Pat Crittenden started her career from the principles in Book 3, Chapter 4. U.K. psychotherapist Charley Shults will discuss loss, sadness and depression from the modern DMM perspective, and from his perspective applying DMM concepts to his therapy clients.
