This updated edition of The Handbook of Child and Adolescent Psychotherapy reflects the many changes in the profession. It includes:
- additional chapters on neuroscience, work with ‘looked after children’ and with foster parents, working in schools
- enlarged chapters on research, attachment theory, work with parents, and developments in child and adolescent psychotherapy around the world
- chapters on areas of specialist interest including violence, sexual abuse and abusing, trauma, parent-infant psychotherapy, autism, victims of political violence, delinquency and gender dysphoria.
The Handbook remains accessible and jargon-free. It will be a valuable resource for all who work in allied professions where the emotional well-being of children is of concern – health, education, social services – as well as trainee psychotherapists and experienced practitioners.
"This is a rich and thought-provoking collection from twenty-seven main contributors. It is as relevant to social workers who work with children as to specifically psychoanalytic psychotherapists... every section of this second edition can be read with interest and fascination by anyone working with children. Its relevance extends far beyond the psychotherapists in training for whom I am sure it will be a valued Handbook." - John Sudbery, British Journal of Social Work, Vol. 40, No. 2, March 2010
"This revised edition is a thoroughly impressive and impressively thorough achievement. The writing, the level of specialism and expertise evidenced, and the rich variety of clinical and research illustrations make it also a great read." - Anne Alvarez, Consultant Child and Adolescent Psychotherapist
"The second edition is engaging and insightful... This is a resource which can be used by various professionals who work with children not only psychotherapists...especially useful to professionals working with clients in a residential setting by its investigation of group dynamics, professional and client interplay and how these can be managed to understand client pathology...a vital read for all who work directly or indirectly with children."- Martin Smith, Addiction Today
