Description
This comprehensive handbook offers vital information on infant-parent psychotherapy, revolutionising the treatment of babies. Based on over 3,500 observations and treatments, it provides an exciting new field of psychoanalytic psychotherapy.
Developed from major fields of psychology such as developmental psychology and psychoanalysis of early life, infant-parent psychotherapy focuses on pre-verbal communication with babies using simple tools of experience and observation. The book explains the history and background of this approach, its application to understanding babies, and provides a step-by-step guide on assessing, diagnosing, and treating babies.
With detailed theory and practical illustrations through case studies, this handbook is essential reading for all professionals working with children.
