About Trauma-Attachment Tangle: Modifying EMDR To Help
Product Description Trauma-Attachment Tangle offers informative and inspiring clinical stories of children who have complex trauma and attachment issues from experiences such as adoption, hospitalization, or death of a parent. Some of these children display puzzling or extreme symptoms like prolonged tantrums, self-hatred, attacking their parents or being fearful of common things like lights, solid foods or clothing. Dr. Lovett presents strategies for unraveling the traumatic origins of children’s symptoms and gives a variety of tools for treating complex trauma and for promoting attunement and attachment. Review "This lovely, sensitive account of how young children with seemingly intractable behavioral problems can find peace and a place in the world is a treasure for parents and clinicians alike. Dr Lovett uses case vignettes not only to describe what she does but also to explain her thought processes and the science behind her interventions. Clinicians interested in her approach will find the latter part of the book especially helpful, with detailed instructions on how they can incorporate into their own practice the techniques Dr. Lovett uses so adroitly. Parents will treasure her message of hope and find many valuable gems they can enhance their daily efforts to express their love and caring for even the most difficult children." -- Glen R. Elliott, PhD, MD, Chief Psychiatrist, Children's Health Council; Clinical Professor (Affiliated) in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, Stanford School of Medicine "This is a fascinating book on the integration of play therapy, narratives and EMDR to heal children who have suffered complex traumatization very early in their development. It focuses on rebuilding trust, resolving trauma, and repairing attachment. Lovett works from an empathic and sensitive understanding of the child’s world and the child perspective. Rich in wonderful clinical case material, this gifted therapist gives detailed insights into her thinking and offers a variety of very helpful creative clinical tools and strategies and how to use these to guide parents and children. It is a must-read for all clinicians working in this complex field." -- Joanne Morris-Smith C.Psychol, AFBPsS, EMDR Europe Accredited Child & Adolescent Trainer; Co-author of EMDR for the Next Generation: Healing Children & Families "Joan Lovett's The Family-Attachment Tangle is an invaluable for book for anyone working with young children and their parents. Her portrayal of children struggling with the burden of traumatic experiences illuminates how early disruptions to a child's sense of safety can make daily life almost unbearably difficult for the child and his parents. The book emphasizes strategies for treatment of PTSD including EMDR, but Dr. Lovett's approach can be adapted for any child who has had an interruption to developing a sense of safety and security during the early months and years of life." – Meg Zweiback, RN,CPNP,MPH, Pediatric Nurse Practitioner and Family Consultant "Readers of The Trauma-Attachment Tangle have a unique opportunity to virtually join Dr. Joan Lovett in her office--to follow her thought processes and witness her artistry as she unravels and intervenes with the perplexing problems of complicated child cases. The book includes creative games and strategies for enhancing parent-child relationships and guidelines for writing narratives that provide healing and hope. It’s an inspirational read for both clinicians and parents who have struggled with the challenges presented by severely traumatized children." --Debra Wesselmann, MS, LIMHP, Co-founder of The Attachment and Trauma Center of Nebraska; Co-author of Integrative Team Treatment for Attachment Trauma in Children: Family Therapy and EMDR "Dr. Joan Lovett's latest book is an engrossing and extremely useful book for both developmental pediatricians, therapists, and general pediatricians who are
