Unpack my Heart with Words explores how literature can be used to
help young victims cope with their experiences. The process of
reading, discussing and rewriting carefully selected texts can have
a significant therapeutic impact, as the young person identifies
his or her own experience in the narrative. This book guides
readers through all aspects of implementing biblio/narrative
therapy with children and adolescents, from the importance of
cultural sensitivity and understanding the psychological needs of
the child to providing more practical information on how to choose
the right text and encourage expression through the spoken and
written word. It includes exercises for use in sessions, an
analysis of the importance of symbol when working therapeutically
with children, and a complete account of the ethics of good
practice. Drawing on the author's innovative work with young asylum
seekers and refugees, and with an overview of the latest research
in creativity, language and memory, the book provides a
comprehensive and practical resource on the use of literature to
help young victims regain their dignity and overcome the
overwhelmed hurt self. This book will be of immeasurable value to
students and practitioners world-wide in arts and health care who
work with traumatised young people, including counsellors, clinical
psychologists, educational psychologists, teachers,
psychotherapists and social workers.
