Author Information

Irene E. Caspari (1915–1976) arrived in England in 1935 aged 20, having fled the Nazi persecution of Jews in Germany. With her status defined as ‘enemy alien’, her life’s journey took her from her first job – as an assistant school matron, in exchange for board and lodgings – all the way to the Tavistock Clinic. Here, she trained and by 1961 became Principal Educational Psychologist. Irene Caspari was an original thinker. Her work marked the creation of what would become Educational Psychotherapy: a unique and much-needed approach to working with children, families, and school staff who struggle with emotional barriers to learning. About the Caspari Foundation The Caspari Foundation is the home of Educational Psychotherapy and remains the only organization in the UK dedicated to this specialized field. Based in London, this charity is committed to helping children and young people overcome the emotional and social barriers that prevent them from engaging in learning, with a simple but profound mission: to help every child experience the joy of learning. The Foundation’s work today continues to be inspired by the vision and creativity of its founder, Irene Caspari, whose imagination and determination brought this unique organization into existence. Her pioneering approach to combining therapeutic support with educational practice laid the groundwork for what has become an essential resource for children facing learning challenges.
