Little research has explored the everyday, simple and long-term
experience of maternal holding, particularly after the first year
of a child's life. The research that has been undertaken commonly
examines holding through the lens of attachment with a focus on the
impact of holding upon the child. Employing an arts-based
collaborative inquiry approach, participants' stories of holding,
as well as the author's own, convey the significant maternal
experiences of holding their children over individual arts
therapeutic sessions. Optimal moments of holding included strange,
powerful and meaningful experiences of expansion into
self-in-relationship. Attention is drawn to the ways in which
holding can alert us to the current state of mother/child
relationships; how we understand, story and structure those
relationships; and the ways in which we can attend to holding in
order to develop deeply satisfying experiences of a mother/child
'us'. An Arts Therapeutic Approach to Maternal Holding aims to draw
attention to the intersubjective qualities of the mother/child
relationship, explore why holding matters, and offer suggestions
for therapeutic practice. This book is essential reading for
therapeutic practitioners and those in allied health fields who
work with mothers and children.
