Adopted children whose early development has been altered by abuse
or neglect may form negative beliefs about themselves and parents,
and may resist connecting with others. This book outlines how
therapeutic stories can help children to heal and develop healthy
attachments. With a thorough theoretical grounding, the book
demonstrates how to create therapeutic stories that improve
relationships, heal past trauma, and change problem behaviour. The
story of a fictional family that develops its own narratives to
help their adopted child heal illustrates the techniques. This
second edition includes updated research on attachment, trauma and
the developmental process; a new chapter on parental attunement and
regulation; and a new chapter with full length samples of a variety
of narrative types. The gentle and non-intrusive techniques in this
book will be highly beneficial for children with attachment
difficulties. This guide will be an invaluable resource for parents
of adopted children and the professionals working with them.
