The Handbook of Mind/Body Integration in Child and Adolescent
Development examines issues relating to the mind/body connection in
the development of children and adolescents, addressing problems of
adverse life experiences with clinical implications, including
somatization, functional or unexplained medical disturbances in
various organ systems, psychosomatic conditions, and the effects.
It discusses the interactions of emotions, experiences, thoughts in
the mind – and their manifestations in the body – of children
and youth. The book describes the effects of bodily conditions on
the emotional state and mental functioning of children, such as
cerebral palsy, major medical conditions, and other chronic health
problems. It also explores the effects of chronic stress as well as
child neglect and abuse on bodily manifestations.Key areas of
coverage include: Developmental issues in the embodiment of self
and body image in children and adolescents. Trauma and mind/body
consequences in children and adolescents. Munchausen syndrome by
proxy. Unexplained medical conditions, somatoform disorders, and
conversion disorders during childhood and adolescence, including
unexplained conditions in different organ systems (e.g.,
gastrointestinal, dermatological, neurological). Body/mind
conditions in youth with physical and intellectual disabilities and
chronic or severe medical conditions, including palliative care.
Complementary and alternative treatment approaches to mind/body
issues in children and adolescents, supplementing the usual mental
health interventions. The Handbook of Mind/Body Integration in
Child and Adolescent Psychiatry is an essential resource for
researchers, professors, and graduate students as well as
clinicians, therapists, and related professionals in developmental
psychology, child and adolescent psychiatry, family therapy, social
work, pediatrics, and public health.
