In the ten plus years since the first edition of this book, much has changed in the landscape of narrative practice in working with children. Fortunately for us, the book has more than kept pace with these changes. The second edition integrates the most recent research and practise ideas that have emerged over the decade as well as introducing us to emergent issues. The new chapters include: "working in early intervention settings such as school and other frontline agencies"; "children who have become refugees"; and "families living in a context of civil conflict". These new chapters caught my attention and I believe they add a great deal our work with children and families. - D. Russell Crane, PhD
"Narrative Therapies with children and their families (2ndedition) is an essential read for anyone working with children and families. Securely rooted in the rich traditions of family therapy, narrative psychology and psychoanalysis, this book is an essential resource for students and practitioners in the mental health field, as well as in school systems.
Contributors – leading experts from different backgrounds- address important issues like attachment, depression, trauma and violence, focusing on the inspiration and insights a narrative based approach can offer. The focus is not only on giving the child a voice so that he/she can tell his/her story in words, in play, in drawings; but also on listening to the child’s voice and integrating it in the story of the parents, the family, the school, the therapy.
This is an important book that can serve as a clinical guide to therapy and counselling with children and their families. It is likely to become a classic in the field." - Peter Rober, Context UPC KU Leuven, Belgium
"This book is a treasure trove of ideas for therapeutic practice with children and their families. It shows the breadth and strength of narrative as a major cohering metaphor in contemporary family therapy. Different chapters cross the borders of systemic psychotherapy, psychoanalytic thinking, attachment theory and resilience research, as senior practitioners apply narrative ideas to particular family issues and contexts of practice. The book makes for an enriching read for experienced therapists, and charts creative practice possibilities for training practitioners in family therapy, psychology, social work, psychiatry and child psychotherapy." - Carmel Flaskas, Adjunct Associate Professor, School of Social Sciences, UNSW Australia.
Narrative Therapies with Children and their Families introduces and develops the principles of narrative approaches to systemic therapeutic work, and shows how they can provide a powerful framework for engaging troubled children and their families. Written by eminent and leading clinicians, known nationally and internationally for their research and theory development in the field of child and family mental health, the book covers a broad range of difficult and sensitive topics, including trauma, abuse and youth offending. It illustrates the wide application of these principles in the context of the particular issues and challenges presented when working with children and families.
Since publication of the first edition, the importance of narrative therapy has continued to grow, and this new edition provides an updated and revised overview of the field, along with three new chapters to keep apace with developments in child mental health trauma work. This book remains a key text in the field of systemic narrative training and practice.
With clinical examples throughout, this practical book will be welcomed by family and systemic therapists and other professionals in the field of child, adolescent and family mental health.
