This book explores the existential themes and challenges present in
all therapeutic relationships when working with children.
Existential ideas and concepts are a rapidly growing influence on
the practice of psychotherapy and yet their application to work
with children remains largely unexplored. This book begins to
redress this imbalance in a practical and engaging way by
presenting an existential perspective on some key themes in
practicing psychotherapy with children including; play, anxiety,
guilt, choice, family relationships, language and process. Each
chapter is punctuated with engaging vignettes of case material,
blending theoretical insight with the realities of practice.
Through these narratives readers are challenged to question their
own assumptions and beliefs whether they are new to existential
psychotherapy or already immersed in its rich philosophical
traditions. Children are born into the world without choice and are
drawn towards making connections with others, developing
self-awareness and personal identity. As contemporary psychology
and psychotherapy with children focuses increasingly on the
importance of the therapeutic relationship, "Therapy with Children"
takes this as its starting point to develop a powerful model for
practice.
