Description
Trauma, Abandonment and Privilege: A Guide to Therapeutic Work with Boarding School Survivors explores the complex emotional processes of individuals who were sent away to boarding schools in childhood. This practice-based book delves into the psychological aspects of survival and recovery, offering insights into the challenges faced by ex-boarders in intimate relationships.
Divided into three parts - Recognition, Acceptance, and Change - the book provides a comprehensive understanding of the emotional processes involved in boarding school experiences. It also offers practical interventions and strategies for therapists, counsellors, and mental health workers working with ex-boarder clients.
This guide is relevant to those who work with individuals affected by the UK boarding school model, as well as professionals seeking to understand the needs of this client group. By examining the repercussions of survival and outlining steps toward recovery, Trauma, Abandonment and Privilege aims to support therapists in providing effective therapeutic work.
