Böcker av Brenda Mallon

Children may not understand where their dreams come from, especially when they experience terrifying nightmares that stop them being able to sleep and frighten them when they are awake. Accessible and fun to use, this guide gives a step-by-step account of how to understand and interpret children's dreams.

Brenda Mallon combines the latest bereavement theory with skills-based training to fill a gap in the market for a truly student-focussed and multi-disciplinary book which provides a useful framework for teaching and learning.

This book is written in a style that is compassionate, empathic and easy to access by the lay reader. Brenda Mallon draws from her wealth of experience to show trainees and practitioners how to bring counselling skills into their work when dealing with adults suffering from loss, grief and bereavement.

This book explores the territory of loss in childhood using the words of children who have found themselves bereft of hope. As well as covering the short and long term implications that arise when loss occurs, it provides positive approaches that enable children not only to cope but to grow through their experiences.
