At a time of increasing financial pressure on families - as well as
the services that support them - children are doubly disadvantaged.
The economical mass-provision of proven approaches appears to be an
unquestionable strategy. In this frank and revealing book, written
by an experienced child and adolescent psychiatrist of eclectic and
questioning persuasion, the argument is made that we are travelling
in the wrong direction. A blinkered pursuit of empirical evidence
and uniform delivery is leading us away from any sensitive and
reciprocal relationship between caring professionals and the young
individuals whose interests they are there to serve. Drawing on
attachment and psychodynamic approaches, as well as systemic,
values-based and mindful practice, Being With and Saying Goodbye
describes an attitude that should be the prerequisite and medium of
all child and adolescent work that has therapeutic intention.
Unacknowledged, even reviled, this ghost in the machine is
threatened with extinction.
