Synopsis

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.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

Jenny Dover and Gillian Salmon's lively and informative account of the educational psychotherapy approach delves deeper than the usual hints and tips' format aimed at teachers whilst retaining accessibility and engagement with the reader. Four case studies of children with various social, learning and emotional difficulties form a basis around which the authors consider the following:

*How the educational psychotherapist can assess that it would be appropriate to work with a particular child

*Ethical considerations in working individually with children

*Techniques and materials used in individual and classroom work

*The importance of endings and beginnings, and ways in which they can be approached

*Psychoanalytic concepts used as a theoretical basis for the work

This introduction to educational psychotherapy will outline the insights that will be of interest to teachers by discussing troubled children in the classroom who resist efforts to teach them. As essential background, it also gives an account of the origins of this approach and an explanation of its basic features. This evidence-based approach allows teaching with confidence, and a clear understanding of the role of educational psychotherapy in the classroom.
