Dr Jonathan Baylin PhD, received his doctorate in Clinical Psychology from Vanderbilt University (US). While continuing his clinical practice, he has immersed himself in the study of neurobiology and in teaching mental health practitioners about the brain. He has given numerous keynotes and workshops for mental health professionals on ‘Putting the Brain in Therapy’ both internationally and regionally within the USA.

Several years ago, Dr. Baylin began a collaborative relationship
with Dr Daniel Hughes, a leader in the field of attachment-focused therapy. Together they have authored “The Neurobiology of Attachment-Focused Therapy: Enhancing Connection and Trust in the Treatment of Children and Adolescents” and “Brain-Based Parenting: The Neuroscience of Caregiving for Healthy Attachment”.

He is also the co-author of “Working with Traumatic Memories to Heal Adults with Unresolved Childhood Trauma” with Petra Winnette.

Dr Daniel Hughes PhD, received his doctorate in Clinical Psychology from Ohio University. For most of his professional life, he has been a clinician specializing in the treatment of children who manifest serious deficits in their emotional, cognitive, and behavioural development, and at the same time demonstrate considerable difficulty establishing and maintaining secure attachment relationships. Working primarily with foster and adopted children, he developed an attachment-focused treatment that he called Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy (DDP).
He is the author of many books including “Building the Bonds of Attachment”, “Principles of Attachment-Focused Parenting”, and co-author including “Creating Loving Attachments: Parenting with PACE to Nurture Confidence and Security in the Troubled Child“ with Kim Golding, “Healing Relational Trauma with Attachment-Focused Interventions: DDP With Children and Families” with Kim Golding and Julie Hudson, and “Settling Troubled Pupils to Learn – why relationships matter in school” with Louise Bomber. His latest publication is “The Little Book of Attachment: Theory to Practice in Child Mental Health“ with Ben Gurney-Smith.
