Trauma, Abandonment and Privilege discusses how ex-boarders can be
amongst the most challenging clients for therapists; even
experienced therapists may unwittingly struggle to skilfully
address the needs of this client group. It looks at the effect on
adults of being sent away to board in childhood and the problems
associated with boarding, which have only recently been
acknowledged by mainstream mental health professionals. This
practice-based book is illustrated by case studies, diagrams and
exercises and is divided into three parts: 'Recognition;
Acceptance; Change'. It aims to help readers understand the
emotional processes of boarding and the psychological aspects of
survival, outlining the steps toward recovery and the repercussions
of survival. The book also explores how ex-boarders frequently
struggle with intimate relationships with spouses and partners and
offers interventions and strategies for those working with
ex-boarder clients. Trauma, Abandonment and Privilege will be of
interest to therapists, counsellors and mental health workers
across the UK. It will also be relevant to those who are well
acquainted with boarding schools based on the UK model, for example
in Canada, Australia, New Zealand and India.
