Die psychodynamische Behandlung der Auswirkungen von Stress und Trauma auf die frühe Bindung
Traumatische Erfahrungen in der frühen Kindheit können das ganze Leben nachdrücklich prägen und negativ beeinflussen. Oft entstehen sie durch die unbewusste transgenerationelle Weitergabe von eigenen traumatischen Erfahrungen der Eltern. Die wichtigste Rolle in der Therapie spielen deshalb die Eltern und primären Betreuungspersonen als mögliche Ursachen sowie als am besten geeignete Förderer einer gesunden Entwicklung ihrer Kinder. Durch die Unterstützung der elterlichen Liebe und Hingabe an das Kindeswohl will die Therapie befriedigende Beziehungserlebnisse wiederauffinden bzw. neu schaffen, damit sie sich als neue Erinnerungen einprägen und helfen, einerseits Ängste flexibler zu machen, andererseits bei Kind und Eltern mehr Vertrauen ins eigene Gefühl für den jeweils anderen und für sich selbst zu schaffen.
"The Emotional Life of the Toddler is the seminal, detailed look into the varied and intense emotional life of children aged one to three. Hailed as groundbreakingy by The Boston Globe after its initial publication, the new edition includes the latest research on this crucial stage of development. Anyone who has followed an active toddler around for a day knows that a child of this age is a whirlwind of explosive, contradictory, and ever-changing emotions. Alicia F. Lieberman offers an in-depth examination of toddlers' emotional development, and illuminates how to optimize this crucial stage so that toddlers can develop into emotionally healthy children and adults. Drawing on her lifelong research, Dr. Lieberman addresses commonly asked questions and issues. Why, for example, is znoy often the favorite response of the toddler? How should parents deal with the anger they might feel when their toddler is being aggressively stubborn? Why does a crying toddler run to his mother for a hug only to push himself vigorously away as soon as she begins to embrace him? This updated edition also addresses twenty-first century concerns such as how to handle screen time on devices and parenting in a post-internet world. With the help of numerous examples and vivid cases, Lieberman answers these and other questions, providing, in the process, a rich, insightful profile of the roller coaster emotional world of the toddler."--Publisher description
