Through the stories of individual children, this book illuminates the process of creative, play-based child psychotherapy. Each chapter focuses on a specific issue that brings a child or a young person to the therapy room and explores the use and meaning of particular objects and ' object games' . These insightful and dynamic stories offer readers a profound understanding of the healing power of play in the context of child psychotherapy.
"Cottis' s illustrations and explanations of how a Child Therapist works flow seamlessly from events and processes in the session with the child and then, quite naturally, the drama of the session takes over - so the reader is never bored, always pulled along by the narrative, yet ever more informed. This is a beautiful book, describing beautiful work. " - Anne Alvarez, Consultant Child and Adolescent Psychotherapist and author of The Thinking Heart "This is a wonderful and engaging book. Tamsin is the therapist you' d want every child to have. I learnt so very much. " - Dr. Susie Orbach, Psychoanalyst and author of Fat is a Feminist Issue, The Impossibility of Sex, and Bodies About
Tamsin Cottis is a child psychotherapist and co-founder of Respond, the UK' s leading agency for psychotherapy and counselling for people with learning disabilities. She works in primary schools and in private practice, supporting children and young people with diverse needs.
