A Psychological Perspective on the Experience and Meaning of Memory in a Case of Childhood Abuse

March 25, 2010

This presentation will discuss a psychological and phenomenological perspective on the meaning of memory in the life of a child who has experienced life-threatening abuse. The use of artistic representation in the treatment of children with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder will be discussed. Art representations of the child’s experience will provide examples of the phenomenological and psychological meanings and perspective of the client’s and clinician’s therapeutic experiences.
