Psychotherapy with Medically Ill Children
Many therapists feel overwhelmed with the prospect of helping children cope with physical illness. Learn from expert in the field Gerald Koocher as his warm relational stance and play therapy techniques allow children to share their experiences regarding their illnesses. In this video, watch as he maintains a developmental focus to build rapport with the young girl, and tests various hypotheses in an effort to identify the source of her emotional suffering. Afterwards, Dr. Koocher meets with the mother to develop a plan to address some of her child’s symptoms. Jon Carlson and Don Keat introduce Dr. Koocher, and facilitate an in-depth discussion of the further impact and uses of this approach.
