Daniel Hughes

Dan Hughes, Ph.D. is a clinical psychologist. He founded and developed Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy (DDP), the treatment of children who have experienced abuse and neglect and who demonstrate ongoing problems related to attachment and trauma. This treatment occurs in a family setting and the treatment model has expanded to become a general model of family treatment. He has spent over 40 years helping children and youth reach their full potential and reconnect with others in their lives.

Dan has conducted seminars, workshops, spoken at conferences and guest lectured throughout the US, Europe, Africa, Canada, and Australia. He also engaged in extensive training and supervision in the certification of therapists in his treatment model, along with ongoing consultation to various agencies and professionals. He is also president of the Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy Institute (DDPI) which is responsible for the certification of professionals in DDP. Information about DDPI can be found on their website, www.ddpnetwork.org.

Dan has authored and co-authored many books for parents, carers and professionals, and we are delighted to be stockists for these and his training DVDs.
