Abstract: Conceptualisation in cognitive behavioural psychotherapy describes and explains the problems reported by the patient. The patient has specific beliefs about the world, others and themselves. Understanding the patient’s psychological construct and beliefs requires exploring the environmental influences they experienced during early childhood. The first ten years of a young person’s life significantly impact the subsequent development of personality and the adoption of specific social roles. When the patient gets to their roots, they begin to confront past events and try to work through them mentally so that they can later pursue their life goals without psychological burden. A key stage is building the parent-child bond and acquiring experiences. This article discusses attachment styles in young people and the problems they may encounter due to inadequate family upbringing. This paper is for illustrative purposes. Reference will be made to John Bowlby’s Attachment Theory and Mary Ainswort’s attachment research. Self-harm will be addressed based on the latest data from the American Psychiatric Association’s classification of mental disorders.
