En stor och en liten är borta.
Kristerapi med en pojke som är två år.
En liten pojke, som har mist halva sin familj, befinner sig i
chocktillstånd när han kommer i terapi. I ord och bilder
presenteras hur pojken behöver ledas och följas igenom sin sorg av
terapeuten, och hur detta leder fram till psykologisk läkning.
Kristerapin kommer att utgöra en länk till en ny framtid för
honom.

Psykoterapi med en pojke som har diagnosen ADHD.
Vinjetter från en psykoterapi som, både ur patientens och
terapeutens perspektiv, skildrar hur det kan te sig innanför de
lykta dörrarna till en barnpsykologs rum. Som det brukar vara, med
impulsdrivna pojkar, är det möten med "stora gester" som
ger upphov till blod, svett, skratt och tårar. Psykoterapin har
bedrivits utifrån en psykodynamisk grundsyn samt med kunskaper i
neuropsykiatri och pedagogik.

Sätt svart på vitt! Berätta om ditt arbete!
Gunnar Carlberg och Elisabeth Cleve inleder med tankar om hinder och
glädjeämnen inför att skriva om psykoterapeutiskt arbete. Gunnar berättar om
erfarenheter av vad man kan kalla "kliniknära" forskning. Elisabeth
berättar om egna erfarenheter av att skriva böcker om patienter. Det är
mycket att tänka på innan man kan publicera sekretessbelagt material. En stor
del av seminariet sker i diskussionsform. Vi hoppas att åhörarnas egna idéer
och "skrivbordsprojekt" kan leda till ett givande utbyte.

A Big and a Little One is Gone
This is a story from inside the child psychotherapist's room.
Victor who is two and a half years old has lost his mother and younger
brother in a car accident. He is "sunny and happy" and
doesn't cry. He is a child in deep crisis and comes for a crisis
therapy.
In this seminar we will follow Victor for his fifteen treatment
hours. He shows through play and activities how he is followed and
piloted through his grief. The healing by play therapy is depicted in
words and pictures out of the perspective of both patient and
therapist. The crisis therapy will work as the first link in a new
future.
In spite of the tragic reasons for the meetings, "A Big and a
Little One is Gone" is a documentary story which brings both hope
and courage.

From Chaos to Context.
Psychotherapy with a boy diagnosed ADHD.
A few words from Elisabeth Cleve
At seven years of age Douglas was physically, mentally,
neuropsychiatrically (ADHD) and socially handicapped. His behaviour
was also disturbed to a degree that usually rules out psychotherapy.
Children with different types of severe handicap, including a
neuropsychiatric diagnosis, are seldom offered psychotherapy.
Nevertheless all children have an inner life that changes over time.
This is the case regardless of weather the psychic problems have
primarily biological or psychological causes. I am of the opinion
that it is possible to favourably influence the child's inner
process of change in a psychotherapy. Such a therapy must, however,
be tailored to suit the child's capacity, which must not be
overrated.
The therapy with Douglas has been conducted from a psychodynamic
outlook together with knowledge of neuropsychiatry. I regard it as
absolutely essential to integrate both these fields of knowledge
instead of pitting them against one another, which often happens
today. Such an "either or" attitude does not benefit any
child!
The therapy's progress is described in everyday language. It is a
therapy with great gestures and of varying content, which give rise
to blood, sweat, laughter and tears. Douglas' story provides an
emotional understanding of what psychotherapy can mean for children
and teenagers driven by impulses.

FROM CHAOS TO CONTEXT.
Psychotherapy with a boy who has the diagnosis ADHD.
Elisabeth Cleve
psychologist/psychotherapist
Erica Foundation Stockholm, Sweden
The aim of this presentation is to invite the audience into the
psychotherapist's room. A psychotherapy will be presented with an
adopted boy who was 7 years old when he started his treatment at the
Erica Foundation in Stockholm. He had an ADHD-diagnosis as well as
grave physical, psychic and social handicap. He was impulsive and
violent. His demands have been hard on a therapist's and the
institution's holding function. He comes to his therapy for 365
hours. Instead of becoming a hooligan, he tries hard to behave like
an ordinary boy and wishes very much to become an ordinary man. For
the boy as well as for the therapist there has been blood, sweat,
tears and lots of laughter.
