490 _aJohn Bowlby Memorial Conference monographs series
520 _aThis book brings together the presentations from the nineteenth John Bowlby Memorial Conference in 2012. The aim of this was to explore the growing role of the body in relational psychotherapy over the last decade, and to explore the relationship between attachment, the body and trauma. Questions addressed include: How do we anchor the new understandings we are gaining within the framework of attachment? How might the integration of these ideas about the body change what we do in the consulting room? What impact might this have on the therapy relationship? Each paper demonstrates this leading edge work in relation to the themes of the body and touch with clients including those so often regarded as ""unsuitable for therapy"", namely those who have a physical or learning disability or those who have survived extreme trauma through the painful means of psychic protection resulting in dissociative states of mind."
