This introduction to educational psychotherapy outlines the
insights that will be of interest to teachers by discussing
troubled children in the classroom who resist efforts to teach
them. Its evidence-based approach allows teaching with
confidence, and a clear understanding of the role of educational
psychotherapy in the classroom.
The book comprises four case studies of educational therapy work
with children, chosen for their narrative interest and the variety
of the children's difficulties and backgrounds. As the
stories of three boys and one girl unfold, the links between their
learning difficulties and their social/emotional development become
clear. Later chapters develop understanding of this way of working,
with detailed accounts of how to assess suitability for educational
therapy, psychoanalytic concepts underpinning the approach, and
techniques and materials used in individual and classroom work.
