Is my client showing help-seeking behaviours towards me/the team?

5th April 2013
A crisis may be seen as evidence of non-progression in treatment, but if it also involves the young person calling the worker, or the team, or otherwise signalling their distress, then this may indicate a shift towards the development of an Attachment relationship with the worker or team that has more in common with the Secure Base, suggesting the presence of some Engagement... if this is the case you may be moving out of the INITIAL PHASE and towards one of the later Phases of AMBIT work.
