Relational Trauma in Infancy explores the impact of early relationships on an individual's life. This interdisciplinary book brings together perspectives from psychoanalysis, attachment theory, and neuroscience to understand trauma in infancy. The authors examine intergenerational transmission of relational trauma, the therapeutic possibilities of parent-infant psychotherapy, and training for professionals working with traumatised parents and infants. A range of experts contribute to this comprehensive discussion, shedding light on the nature of the traumatising encounter between parent and infant. This book is relevant to those working in child and adult psychotherapy, clinical psychology, psychiatry, healthcare, and social work, offering valuable insights into understanding and addressing relational trauma in infancy.
