Adoption is an extremely complex and emotionally demanding process
for all those involved. This book explores the emotional experience
of adoption from a psychoanalytic perspective, and demonstrates how
psychoanalytic understanding and treatment can contribute to
thinking about and working with adopted children and their
families.Drawing on psychoanalytic, attachment and child
development theory, and detailed in-depth clinical case discussion,
The Emotional Experience of Adoption explores issues such as: the
emotional experience of children placed for adoption, and how this
both shapes and is shaped by unconscious processes in the child's
inner world; how psychoanalytic child psychotherapy can help as a
distinctive source of understanding and as a treatment for children
who are either in the process of being adopted or already adopted;
and, how such understanding can inform planning and decision making
amongst professionals and careers.The Emotional Experience of
Adoption explains and accounts for the emotional and psychological
complexities involved for child, parents and professionals in
adoption. It will be of interest and relevance to anyone involved
at a personal level in the adoption process or professionals
working in the fields of adoption, social work, child mental
health, foster care and family support.
