Developmental Perspectives in Child Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy, Paperback / softback Book

Developmental Perspectives in Child Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy Paperback / softback

Edited by Christopher Bonovitz, Andrew Harlem

Part of the Relational Perspectives Book Series series

Paperback / softback

Description

Developmental Perspectives in Child Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy incorporates recent innovations in developmental theory and research into our understanding of the nature of change in child psychotherapy.

Diverse psychoanalytic ideas and individual styles are represented, challenging the historical allegiance in analytic child therapy to particular, and so often singular, schools of thought.

Each of the distinguished contributors offers a conceptually grounded and clinically rich account of child development, addressing topics such as refl ective functioning, the role of play, dreaming, trauma and neglect, the development of recognition and mutuality, autism, adoption, and non- binary conceptions of gender.

Extended clinical vignettes offer the reader clear vision into the convergence of theory and practice, demonstrating the potential of psychoanalytic psychotherapy to move child development forward.

This book will appeal to all practicing mental health professionals.
