On Children Who Privilege The Body: Reflections Of An Independent Psychotherapist

On Children Who Privilege the Body On Children Who Privilege the Body: Reflections of an Independent Psychotherapist brings together selected papers from the career of Ann Horne, and draws upon her considerable experience in the field of child and adolescent mental health. Many of the papers collected in this volume reflect Ann Horne’s important work with ‘troubled’ children and young people, and the technique and theory on which it is based. Across her writing, she demonstrates that the roots of their deviant behaviour are to be found in their earliest experiences, which not only fail to offer them an opportunity to thrive but also actively contribute to their dysfunctional behaviour. On Children Who Privilege the Body will be of considerable interest and use to child psychotherapists, social workers and all other mental health professionals working with children and adolescents in a range of settings. Ann Horne was head of the Independent child psychotherapy training and post-graduate development at the BAP (now IPCAPA). She is co-editor of The Handbook of Child and Adolescent Psychotherapy and of the four earlier books in this series. Now retired, she gives talks and writes, retaining a special interest in children who act with the body rather than reflect.
