Psychodynamic Child and Adolescent Psychotherapy : Theories and Methods Paperback / softback
by Liselotte Grunbaum, Karen V. Mortensen
Paperback / softback
Description
This book is both a textbook and book of reference for all child and adolescent psychotherapists.
It addresses both novices, who need to learn the theories and methods of the work, and also experienced psychotherapists, who want to expand their knowledge, at the same time getting a readily-accessible update and revival of the many ways in which psychodynamic child and adolescent psychotherapy enters into contemporary practice.
The book offers a clear, methodologically precise and updated introduction to the theories, methods and practice of the field.
The authors demonstrate through practical examples what psychodynamic child and adolescent psychotherapy is, and how a psychotherapy can be planned and carried out, expounding the necessary preconditions, settings and methods.
A personal understanding of the complexity of the therapeutic relationship is presented together with an elucidation of drawings and symbolic play, parallel work with parents, and the special conditions for work with adolescents.
A special section deals with the meaning of time, beginnings, endings, and breaks in psychotherapy, followed by a part about the methodological adaptations necessary for psychotherapy with children and adolescents suffering from maltreatment and complex trauma.
The book ends with a description of the present state of research in the field.
