A Polyvagal Informed Approach to Therapeutic Work with Children and Young People
Autor Karen O’Neill, Tara McDonalden Limba Engleză Paperback – 23 dec 2024
Through this neurophysiological framework of the Polyvagal Theory, the authors consider why children adopt protective strategies, unravelling the mysteries of the nervous system, emotions, and social connection. Linking aspects of attachment theory, developmental trauma, and Adverse Childhood Experiences, the authors explore what shapes behaviour. They delve into perspectives of play and metaphor within the context of the Polyvagal Theory, utilising six storytellers who bring this theory to life, embodying real struggles and highlighting the adaptations children make for survival. Throughout this book, clear explanations, practical examples, and actionable strategies are offered to help the reader to understand and apply a Polyvagal framework when working with children and young people.
This text is an accessible and important resource for all qualified child therapists, trainees and professionals interested in the mental health of children and young people.

Recenzii
“A Polyvagal Informed Approach to Therapeutic Work with Children & Young People by Karen O’Neill and Tara McDonald offers an insightful and compassionate guide for therapists, teachers, and parents seeking to understand and apply the Polyvagal framework in supporting the well-being of children and young individuals. Through compelling narratives told in the voices of children, readers witness the theory in action, enhancing understanding and relatability. With clear explanations, practical examples, and actionable strategies, this book delves into the nuanced interplay between the autonomic nervous system, social engagement, and emotional regulation. Through case studies and interventions rooted in play and metaphor, readers gain insights into navigating complex emotions, trauma, and developmental challenges. This essential resource emphasizes safety, co-regulation, and healthy nervous system development, offering hope and resilience in the face of adversity.”
Stephen W. Porges, PhD. Distinguished University Scientist & Founding Director of Traumatic Stress Research Consortium, Kinsey Institute.
“This book is a really useful resource for a wide range of therapists and other professionals working with children. It explains Porges' theories and potential applications very well, but more than that, it provides a solid foundation for linking an understanding of the nervous system with other essential aspects of therapeutic work, such as transference and countertransference, metaphor, and play. The authors do this by using easy to understand clinical examples alongside solid helpful tools that practitioners will be grateful for.”
