Disability Psychotherapy explores the growing practice of working psychotherapeutically with people with disabilities.
Over three parts, the book explores the history of disability psychotherapy, working as a disability psychotherapist and applications of disability psychotherapy. The contributors, representing a range of approaches, describe the practice of disability psychotherapy through clinical material, discuss their experiences of working in the field and reflect on their learnings. The book also considers the contributions of the Institute of Psychotherapy and Disability, and how relational attachment work with patients, colleagues, research and clinical writing creates a thriving community.
Disability Psychotherapy will be of interest to experienced and student psychotherapists, psychoanalysts, counsellors, educators, carers, parents, advocates and anyone who is concerned about widening access for people with disabilities and their networks to high quality psychotherapy treatment.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
'I congratulate and thank all the people who have contributed to this volume. The work has come on so far since we started the Institute of Psychotherapy and Disability and yet access to disability therapy remains poor. This book will add weight to the arguments for making disability psychotherapy available to all who need it, and as a specific training for dedicated therapists. Well done and thank you!'
Pat Frankish
, founder member, Institute of Psychotherapy and Disability; past President of the British Psychological Society
'The authors of this wonderful book carry on the proud tradition begun by the Founders of the Institute of Psychotherapy and Disability, inspiring hope where there is often therapeutic nihilism, and understanding where there is often denial.'
Baroness Sheila Hollins,
former President of the Royal College of Psychiatry
'Learning disabled people do have minds and can benefit cognitively and emotionally from a specialized form of psychotherapy. This is a wonderful and revelatory book.'
