Many parents at some time dread that a child of theirs may be
mentally ill or disturbed. But even after a generation of child
psychology, psychiatry and psychotherapy, they still frequently
fear to admit their fears, and fear the mystery of the remedy as
much as the mystery of the problem. It is therefore important that
parents should come to easy terms with the work of the
psychotherapist, and be reassured that it is based on sympathetic
understanding, not mysteries. It was to explain themselves to
parents and others who work with other young people that sixteen
psychotherapists and analysts (mostly following the principles of
Anna Freud or Melanie Klein and largely drawn from the Hampstead
Child Therapy and the Tavistock clinics in London) decided to
collaborate in the preparation of this book. In it they set out to
describe their work in schools, hospitals, clinics, day centres,
etc and to discuss their fundamental approach to the treatment of
the disturbed child.
