Description

Therapeutic Metaphors: A Tapestry of Healing for Children and Beyond

The groundbreaking work of Joyce C. Mills and Richard J. Crowley, “Therapeutic Metaphors for Children and the Child Within,” has left an indelible mark on the therapeutic landscape. Recognized by the Clark Vincent Award in 1988 for its remarkable contributions to the field, this literary masterpiece has been translated into four languages, illuminating the profound healing power of metaphors.

The original edition, published in 1986, revolutionized child and adolescent psychotherapy by seamlessly weaving the transformative teachings of Milton H. Erickson with creative healing approaches tailored for young minds. This pioneering work established itself as the first and only comprehensive guide to harnessing the therapeutic potential of metaphor for children and adolescents.

Now, in this newly revised edition, the authors have deftly woven in advancements in neurobiology and the cultural significance of metaphor and play. They share fresh case studies and innovative therapeutic activities to empower a new generation of mental health professionals, educators, and coaches.

At the heart of this revision lies the indomitable spirit of resilience. The authors explore the remarkable capacity of children and adolescents to navigate life’s challenges, drawing upon their inherent creativity and imagination. Through the lens of metaphor, they unlock hidden strengths and foster a sense of empowerment.

The authors’ profound understanding of Erickson’s work shines through in their approach. They deftly apply his principles of indirect communication and hypnotic language to create a therapeutic space where children feel heard, understood, and enveloped in a sense of unconditional acceptance.

This revised edition solidifies the position of “Therapeutic Metaphors for Children and the Child Within” as an indispensable resource for anyone working with young people. Its depth of knowledge, practical guidance, and inspiring case studies empower practitioners to create transformative therapeutic experiences that nurture the whole child, fostering their emotional, cognitive, and social well-being.

In the tapestry of therapeutic interventions, metaphor stands out as a vibrant thread, connecting the conscious and unconscious realms. It bridges the gap between the world of words and the world of emotions, allowing children and adolescents to express the inexpressible and to heal the wounds that words alone cannot reach.

With its meticulous attention to detail, comprehensive approach, and unwavering belief in the healing power of metaphor, “Therapeutic Metaphors for Children and the Child Within” remains a beacon of hope for therapists, educators, and coaches seeking to empower the young people in their care.
