In addition to its practical focus, the book delves into the latest research and trends in trauma-informed therapy, providing a solid theoretical foundation for readers. Chapters explore the application of music therapy in diverse clinical settings, including schools, healthcare facilities, and community organizations, as well as its use with marginalized populations such as First Nations people and refugees. The book also addresses the risks of burnout and compassion fatigue in trauma-informed practice, offering essential self-care strategies for therapists.

This is a vital resource presenting suggestions and possible therapy solutions for registered music therapists, students in training, and trauma-informed practitioners, and anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of trauma-informed care and harness the power of music to transform the lives of trauma survivors.

This insightful book offers a rich collection of practice stories written by forty-eight psychological professionals working in neonatal care in the UK, illuminating the compassionate human endeavour of holding distress as families and teams navigate the storms of neonatal care. Through diverse voices, including clinical and counselling psychologists, child and adult psychotherapists, counsellors and psychological wellbeing practitioners, these evocative narratives reveal what it means to bring forth and hold stories that make sense of overwhelming experiences for others.

Organised across four thematic sections-exploring the 'what?', 'how?', 'where?' and 'who?' of neonatal psychological practice-the book weaves together first-person narratives, reflective pieces and conversations with conceptual commentaries that provide theoretical and empirical context. Chapters address the nature of psychological intervention during ongoing trauma, the therapeutic processes of holding and containment, clinical and ethical dilemmas arising from positioning within multidisciplinary teams, and the mutual influence between practitioners' selves and their work. Topics span transitioning into parenthood, neonatal loss and trauma, parent-infant relationships, staff support, personal and professional boundaries and experiences of leadership, offering both anchor and compass for this rapidly evolving field.

Written with accessibility in mind, this book assumes no background in psychological training and speaks to a wide readership: psychological professionals seeking to learn about or deepen their neonatal practice; allied health professionals, nurses, medics and other multidisciplinary team members wanting to understand their colleagues' roles; parents and families who have experienced neonatal care; and anyone interested in discovering what psychological professionals can offer within the neonatal system. By celebrating diverse approaches, this anthology of creativity, connection and courage opens up new possibilities for practice while honouring the complex reality of this profoundly human work. Additional resources that support readers' reflection on and engagement with the stories, including a read-along guide, are available as an eResource on the book's online profile, on the Routledge website.

Harriet Lutzky offers a groundbreaking psychoanalytic study of the sacred as a secular concept, exploring how the sacred functions as that which is 'set apart' from the profane or everyday, and revealing the universal psychological mechanisms.

The book begins by examining hypothetical wholeness of being, exemplified by Spinoza's equation of God with Nature. It then explores the concept of splitting, drawing on Durkheim's anthropological theory and Fairbairn's psychoanalytic framework to show how what is split off from ordinary experience becomes designated as sacred. Subsequent chapters investigate ritual as the means by which humans attempt to heal the breach between sacred and profane, analyzing this reparative process through psychoanalytic concepts of reparation and comparing it with the Kabbalistic notion of tikkun. The work traces the etymological roots of 'sacred' (Latin sacer, from sek meaning 'set apart') and Hebrew qadosh ('cut off'), demonstrating the universal psychological foundation of sacred experience across cultures.

This book is essential for scholars and practitioners in psychoanalysis, religious studies, psychology of religion, anthropology and cultural studies. It serves academics seeking to understand religious phenomena through psychological frameworks, psychoanalysts interested in the cultural dimensions of splitting and reparation, and anyone exploring the intersection of depth psychology and collective culture beyond traditional religious contexts.

Religion, Psychotherapy and Making Suffering Sufferable explores one of humanity's most profound questions: how do we cope with undeserved suffering? Drawing from the biblical story of Job, this groundbreaking work examines how individuals from diverse religious traditions navigate life's most devastating losses.

Through the lens of Job's existential odyssey of "having a world, losing a world, and replacing a world," Paul Marcus presents a comprehensive analysis of how people from eight major spiritual traditions-Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, Confucianism, and Taoism-utilize their religious resources to make suffering sufferable. The book introduces the concept of "creative suffering," characterized by steadfastness, patience, and humility, which allows individuals to maintain faith and reconstruct meaning after traumatic experiences. Marcus combines rigorous analysis of key religious texts with clinical insights drawn from his extensive experience as a psychoanalytic psychotherapist. The work addresses not only those who maintain their faith through extreme circumstances but also those who struggle with guilt, shame, anger, and hopelessness when their beliefs are challenged by life's tragedies.

This book will be of significant interest to academics and scholars in psychoanalytic studies, spirituality, religious studies, and trauma and resiliency research. Mental health professionals, religious counsellors, and anyone seeking to understand how faith intersects with psychological healing will find valuable insights for both theoretical understanding and practical application.

Beyond Screen Time Guilt: The Role of TV and Video in Early Child Development by Cary Bazalgette offers a fresh and insightful perspective on babies' and toddlers' relationship with moving image media. Forget the guilt-inducing screen time rules and dire warnings about developmental harm - this book reveals what's really happening when your little one is captivated by their favourite show.

Drawing on meticulous observational research and 35 years of media education expertise, Cary Bazalgette uncovers the remarkable ways in which children under three actively engage with film and television. Bazalgette critiques the flawed research behind screen time rules, exposing the limitations of surveys and experimental studies in this context. She provides vivid examples of typical behaviours, such as spontaneous laughter, frightened responses, and apparent "addiction," while analysing the learning challenges that young children eagerly embrace. The book also emphasises the value of shared viewing experiences and offers detailed insights into how specific TV episodes foster learning.

With its clear style, good humour, and evidence-based reassurance, Beyond Screen Time Guilt is an essential read for parents, early childhood practitioners and students. It transforms how we understand the relationship between young children and moving image media, offering a refreshing and informed alternative to screen-use guidelines.

The Unconscious Through the Lens of David Lynch examines the acclaimed director's work through an innovative integration of psychoanalysis, meditation and transpersonal philosophy.

In this book, Jack Schwartz offers a bold fusion of clinical theory, cinematic analysis and psychological inquiry, anchored by explorations of the uncanny and Lynch's personal practice of Transcendental Meditation. At its core lies a profound reconception of the unconscious, not as a static repository of repressed material, but as a dynamic, generative field. Schwartz demonstrates how Lynch's cinematic aesthetic, spiritual intuition and artistic sensibility converge to articulate a creative process operating at the crossroads of psychological exploration and communal understanding. He investigates how Lynch's aesthetic choices and creative practices challenge dominant conceptions of the unconscious, identity and storytelling, favouring instead a transcendent model of the creative field. Positioned at the intersection of cinema and psychoanalysis, this book reimagines David Lynch as a transcendent philosopher of the unconscious: an abstract artist who turns the camera inward to reveal the hidden currents pulsing beneath the surface of human experience. Through meticulous analysis of Lynch's filmography and creative methodology, Schwartz illuminates how the director's work functions as a portal into the deeper, stranger theatre of the mind, where thought and desire intertwine in unexpected configurations. By examining Lynch's practice of Transcendental Meditation and its influence on his artistic vision, Schwartz unveils a creative philosophy that goes beyond conventional boundaries between the personal and the universal, the psychological and the spiritual.

This book will appeal to scholars and students engaged in both academic film criticism and psychoanalytic discourse, as well as anyone interested in the transformative potential of cinema as a tool for psychological and spiritual exploration.

This important book provides a comprehensive walkthrough of the impacts of social media on the lives and psychological health of children and young people. It considers the role played by individual differences and especially personality factors in shaping social media behaviour and responses to specific types of illegal or potentially harmful content.
The book discusses young people's actions on social media and the resulting psychological effects, such as developing an over-dependence on social media sites, disclosing information about themselves that makes them vulnerable to many different risks, and being pulled away from their everyday lives, which can result in social withdrawal, impaired cognitive development and mental health issues. This book also examines the challenges to governments and communications regulators in developing effective laws, regulations and codes of practice to protect young people and place greater responsibility on the technology companies that provide the platforms for social media sites. It also considers the roles that can be played by parents and schools in supporting regulators in the protection of the youngest social media consumers.
Drawing up and reviewing the latest research evidence from around the world, this text is essential reading for students, researchers, and academics in psychology and media fields.

How to Cope with Pregnancy Loss is a compassionate, clinically informed guide to the many ways pregnancies can end too soon, and to living with what follows. Drawing on twenty years' experience as a psychotherapist specialising in reproductive loss, it uses a clear question-and-answer format and vivid clinical vignettes to think through common concerns, navigate complex feelings, and understand the impact on relationships and everyday life.

Built on clinical principles and on lived experiences of parents who have gone through pregnancy loss, the book highlights the emotional and psychological impact of loss, including complex grief and mental health consequences, and gives advice on how to find support and navigate the emotional aftermath. Throughout, the author emphasises that all responses to loss are valid, that language matters profoundly, and that remembrance, rather than silence, is both appropriate and healing.

This book is for anyone whose life has been affected - emotionally, physically or relationally - by pregnancy loss, and for those who wish to understand and support them, including partners, family and friends, colleagues, employers, and professionals working in healthcare.

Origins of Desire & Ethics of the Drive in Lacanian Psychoanalysis is adapted from Samuel McCormick's widely attended Lectures on Lacan, offering a reading companion to Lacan's pivotal Seminar XI that clarifies complex psychoanalytic theory while retaining the lively energy of the lecture hall.

Across six tightly organized chapters, this accessible and engaging book traces the subject's constitution via the cut of the signifier and the law of castration. From there, it navigates the alienating circuitry of desire, ultimately guiding readers toward an ethics grounded in the singular enjoyment of the drive. Along the way, McCormick logically breaks down Lacan's shift from a science of openings (objectality) to a science of non-being (meontology), detailing his theory of repetition, new account of transference, central notion of the unconscious, and radical redefinition of the drive. The concluding chapter explores the clinical and ethical stakes of this trajectory. As we move beyond the frustrations of neurotic desire, toward the uninhibited enjoyments of the drive, we find ourselves on the verge of what Lacan, in the final lines of Seminar XI, describes as "limitless love."

By avoiding unnecessary jargon and utilizing concrete examples, this book occupies a valuable middle space between popular introductions and dense academic commentary. Complete with chapter takeaways, study questions, and crystal-clear definitions, it is perfectly suited for classroom adoption, institutional reading groups, and anyone seeking a reliable guide through Lacan's most influential seminar.

Lacan's Parrot is a remarkable auto-fiction novel that reconstructs the relationship between the author, Betty Milan, and the renowned psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan, offering unprecedented insight into the psychoanalytic process from a patient's perspective.

Set against the backdrop of cultural contrasts between Paris and Brazil, the narrative explores themes of immigration, identity formation, and the complexities of psychoanalytical therapy. Milan's narrative skilfully blends multiple modalities - Bildungsroman, historical panorama, and satire -while providing a poignant examination of the Lebanese diaspora in Brazil. Through the protagonist Seriema's journey, readers witness the unfolding of an analytical cure in all its complexity, complete with dreams, hallucinations, and profound realizations about identity and heritage. The book includes an introduction in which Milan describes her motivations for writing the book, and the commonalities between psychoanalysis and writing, and an afterword by Michele Sarde which provides an interpretive overview and literary analysis.

This unique work offers valuable insight for scholars, psychoanalytic practitioners, and general readers alike.

What is critical psychology? How does it operate in relation to the theory and practice of the psy complex? Why is Marxism a valuable resource to conceptualise and challenge psychology?

Detailed analysis of the 'psy complex' enables us to conceptualise the way academic and professional practice operates, and this is accompanied by situating the way psychology operates in contemporary culture, exploring the role of 'psychologisation'. Psychologisation takes place in a number of ways that are problematic for those of us who aim to change the world and, crucially, know that another world is only possible if people are actively engaged in changing social conditions themselves.

This introduction to critical psychology is from many intersecting standpoints and provides arguments to different kinds of audience inside and outside the discipline. It connects with practice, with interventions in tune with a sceptical anti-psychological politically-charged understanding of what we need to change if we are to change ourselves.

The Psychoanalytic Anatomy of Surrender offers an original psychoanalytic model of surrender, illuminating how inner structures that inhibit aliveness may gradually loosen through emotional experience, therapeutic work, and psychological transformation.

Through detailed clinical case studies and original theoretical contributions, the book explores surrender as a psychological process unfolding across multiple dimensions of emotional life-from rigidity, defensiveness, and control toward greater receptivity, love, gratitude, wisdom, and deeper engagement with lived experience. Integrating psychoanalysis with philosophy and broader contemplative traditions, Rickard develops a practical framework for understanding psychological transformation in both patients and therapists.

Written for psychoanalysts, psychotherapists, scholars, and psychologically minded readers, this book offers a clinical and conceptual language for understanding surrender and its role in therapeutic growth, emotional development, and psychological aliveness.

A Psychoanalytic Memoir of Process, Theory, and Transformation is a deeply introspective exploration of the transformational journey of Rory G. Rothman, tracing her evolution from childhood artist to seasoned psychoanalyst.

Through personal narrative, theoretical synthesis, and clinical case illustrations, Rothman delves into the profound question of "How do I work?"-a query posed by her mentor decades earlier. The memoir weaves together her artistic sensibility, early life experiences, and engagement with psychoanalytic theorists such as Bion, Winnicott, and Andre Green to reveal how these influences shaped her distinctive clinical style. Rothman integrates Modern Psychoanalytic techniques, French Psychosomatics, Field Theory, and the ontological turn, demonstrating how these approaches converge in practice. Extended case studies highlight the challenges and triumphs of working with patients at the edge of psychosis, severe trauma, and unrepresented psychic states, offering a compelling look at transformation rather than cure.

This book is ideal for psychoanalysts, psychotherapists, and graduate students in psychoanalytic and clinical psychology training programs seeking to deepen their understanding of clinical practice. It will also resonate with social workers, mental health professionals, and scholars interested in psychoanalytic writing, creativity, and transformation.
