In this book R.D. Hinshelwood discusses the interplay between the internal world of individuals and the external world, and how they have arisen from a psychoanalytic understanding of the human unconscious. Documenting how a therapeutic community functions, this text contributes to understanding how people can be influenced by their social setting.
Therapeutic Approaches in Work with Traumatized Children and Young People provides a clear and comprehensive link between theory and practice.
