Abstract

My psychoanalytically informed work with an orphanage in New Delhi, India, with an emphasis on providing a holding environment, sensitivity to organizational structures, and exploration of trauma and attachment issues in institutionalized children, is presented. Knowledge on both theory and technique are imparted utilizing moments of instruction and focused interventions. The use of technology as an adjunct to training is emphasized and a vision for the future is discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
