Description

Why and how therapy with even the most challenging kids can work.

Magical Moments of Change presents highly effective child psychotherapeutic styles and techniques and demonstrates them in three ways: by relating "moments" from at least six of her own cases; by conveying and comparing "moments" from 33 of her distinguished colleagues' cases; and by watching her "wild child" patient, little Cammie, develop her own eight "magical moments" over a period of fifteen years.

These "moments" are rare. But by pooling them together, or by looking at how they develop over a long period of time in a single individual, readers are able to achieve further understanding of the process of change in child and adolescent psychotherapy.
