The emerging child

By Phyllis Brusiloff and Mary Jane Witenberg

Book Overview

TheEmerging Child presents the background, nature, techniques, and implications of the Therapeutic Nursery Group (TNG). TNG was established in 1956 to provide emotionally and behaviorally disturbed pre-school children with a group play therapy experience under the leadership of a special nursery group-teacher-therapist. The basic rationale of this program was that the early detection and treatment of psychological disturbances serve as a constructive influence on the child's current and subsequent personal and social adaptation.
