Abstract
Attachment-based family therapy (ABFT) is a manualized, empirically supported family therapy model designed to target family and individual processes that might cause or reinforce adolescent suicide and depression. It is a trust-based, emotion-focused, brief psychotherapy that aims to repair attachment ruptures and rebuild an emotionally protective, secure-based parent-child relationship. ABFT has received 15 years of outcome and process research (Diamond et al, 2022). The model is now well-established and used extensively nationally and internationally.
