Overview

The first two years of life are the most crucial developmental period for establishing the roots of personality and psychological health. This book offers a new body of innovative techniques for identifying and modifying maladaptive behaviours between parent and infant, and describes a new technique called ""previewing"", which helps the young child develop positive patterns of behaviour that promote developmental mastery and competence. It also shows clinicians how to train parents to anticipate developmental changes and to adaptively support them. The new approach not only aids positively in the child's maturation, but also helps develop stronger harmonious bonds between the child and parents.
