About this deal

Dr Margot Sunderland is Director of Education and Training at The Centre for Child Mental Health London, Senior Associate of the Royal College of Medicine and Child Psychotherapist with over thirty years’ experience of working with children and families. incredibly simple to use a useful tool for stimulating in depth communication around important emotional issues. Nicky has also achieved major commissions nationally and internationally in mural work and fine art. I absolutely support the need for updated editions of these superb books and think the cards to be incredibly helpful in supporting children to tell their stories and process trauma.

I am a founding director of a company that supports approximately 1,800 adults working in education to understand if a child has emotional developmental interruptions and what to do to make a difference. There may be something said for catharsis but there's no hint of focusing on a client's strengths in this book, which is what I'd hoped for. I am a student and this is an investment but I am disappointed as I cannot start using the book stray away and this may double the cost. There are only one or two pages I find even remotely appropriate for working with school aged children (or anyone, for that matter). Margot is an acknowledged expert in her field and her passion to make such important understandings and ways of working with troubled children accessible to ordinary people - parents, teachers, support workers - is manifest in the old excellent editions.

The cards are designed to capture the deeper truth of how people experience their life, offering poignant descriptions for what someone may be feeling. Providing a series of photocopiable illustrations, the book is a source of effective readymade material. The Emotion Cards are 48 emotive and artistic images designed to help people to review their emotions and their relationships in a meaningful and often transformative way.

They can help promote a new clarity of thought as a first step towards positive action and bring seemingly huge, unmanageable and insoluble problems into a new perspective.The Emotion Cards are 48 emotive and artistic images designed to help people to review their emotions and their relationships in a meaningful and often transformative way.

I particularly like the theoretical explanation mixed with superb, doable activities/exercises and copyable handouts.

Dr Sunderland is the author of over twenty books in child mental health, which collectively have been translated into eighteen languages and published in twenty-four countries. Due to the level of functioning/comprehension/attention-span, some of the directives have not been entirely successful. It offers opportunities to rehearse other ways of functioning by trying out alternatives safely on paper in exercises that can be adapted for any age range and ability. The book contains a new section explaining how to get the most out of combining the illustrated activities in the book with the cards to encourage truly meaningful conversations and taking steps towards positive action. I have used this book and the printable work sheets in many settings as part of my counselling practice and I have found them to be very useful with individuals of all ages as it always the individual to problem solve their issue and escape their 'fog'.
