Overview

Ethical Practice in Child and Adolescent Analysis and Psychotherapy: Protecting Safety in a Therapeutic Environment by Anita G. Schmukler, Paula G. Atkeson, Helene Keable, and E. Kirsten Dahl provides a detailed study of ethical dilemmas of the child therapist and the child analyst, whose work with children and their parents presents unique and perplexing problems. The book examines both the unconscious motives for ethical lapses and addresses ways in which such behavior may be prevented. It addresses working with parents, while maintaining privacy for the child, pitfalls for the child therapist and analyst, and ways in which the process of supervision, a cornerstone of clinical training, may lead to departure from ethical principles. Ethical Practice in Child and Adolescent Analysis and Psychotherapy addresses the benefits and risks of presenting and writing about clinical cases, examining the field of working as consultant in custody cases and the role of ethical practice from a historical perspective. Pivotal is the role of the unconscious processes of transference and countertransference, processes that are acknowledged but often not fully comprehended. Contributions on ethics and forensic work by Moisy Shopper, MD, and contributions on ethical writing about psychodynamic work by Denia G. Barrett, MSW.

Reviews

Ethics are the fundamental principles and rules of conduct that guide our professional life and clinical practice. It is then curious that ethics are rarely fully integrated with and applied to the complexities of our daily clinical work, complexities multiplied when working with children and adolescents. The authors of Ethical Practice in Child and Adolescent Analysis and Psychotherapy: Protecting Safety in a Therapeutic Environment have taken on the task of correcting this situation. With the use of illustrative clinical vignettes that bring the topic to life, and through an understanding of the role of conscious and unconscious processes, they consider how ethical dilemmas are shaped by the therapeutic relationship, what role they play in our work with parents, in the supervisor-supervisee relationship, in forensic work, and in our professional writing and presentations. In addition, the authors outline the pertinent theoretical and clinical issues, and examine the relevant questions. Ethical Practice in Child and Adolescent Analysis and Psychotherapy is thoughtful and thought provoking, clear and concise, and recommended reading for everyone in the field. -- Miller, Jill M.
