MAAI = Modified Adult Attachment Interview that was created by Dr. David Manock. The original Adult Attachment Interview (AAI) was created by Mary Main and Mary Ainsworth, who specialize(d) in attachment. Because it was difficult to process the AAI's 20 questions in a clinical hour, Dr. David Manock modified the AAI to the 10 most essential interview questions. The goal in using the MAAI is to ascertain clients' attachment relational dynamics and how they respond to attachment anxieties related to their childhood experiences and families. This then informs clinicians how clients organize their current relationships.
MAAI trainings focus on enhancing the following skills:

• Introducing MAAI to Clients
  
• Provoking Attachment Anxieties
  
• Identifying Clients' Responses
  
• Processing MAAI Responses
  
• Repairing Potential Therapeutic Ruptures When Using the MAAI
