Therapy referrals for a child or young person can be motivated for
a number of reasons. The parents, carers or professionals
responsible for their wellbeing might describe a sudden change in
presentation, risk taking behaviour, such as self-harm or
experimentation with drugs, alcohol or sex, or they might label the
young person as over reacting, under reacting or attention seeking.
Such behaviour prompts concern for their safety and confusion about
why the child or young person is presenting the way they are. This
book offers a thoughtful approach to making sense of such behaviour
and encourages adults to 'reflect on' rather than 'react to' young
peoples' outward presentations. Based on the author's work with
children, young people and families over two decades, this book
shares reflections from the therapy room and illustrates how the
therapist can try to make sense of mood, behaviour and
presentations that previously made no sense. The content relies
heavily on clinical experience as well as drawing on classical and
contemporary psychotherapeutic literature. So often adults find
themselves reacting to observable behaviour in a judgmental or
punitive way, rather than pausing to consider what the behaviour
might be communicating. The author aims to model a thoughtful
reflective approach to making sense of what might be going on for
children and young people and this book will be of great interest
to child and adolescent psychotherapists, related professionals and
those with an interest in young persons' mental health.
