Product Description

Review
'Lanyado charts her many years of treating very disturbed children, often with appalling histories of abuse, neglect and abandonment, in a variety of settings. She is especially concerned with exploring the personal nature of what the therapist takes into the the consulting room and how this links with the process of therapeutic change... Lanyado uses many clinical examples to weave her thoughts around the central theme of the presence of the therapist in the process of psychic change wrought in the clinical encounter... Lanyado's account of her work and her thoughtful, imaginative way of making sense of it... shows her readers how this deep and courageous preparedness to know one's own responses is ultimately in the service of reaching the patient.' - Angela Joyce, International Journal of Psychoanalysis 

Product Description
The Presence of the Therapist explores the many dilemmas and difficulties of how to work with a person who has become highly defensive or fearful of having thoughts about what has happened to them.
