"Why and how therapy with even the most challenging kids can work.

Terr presents highly effective child psychotherapeutic styles and techniques and demonstrates them in three ways: by relating ""moments"" from at least six of her own cases; by conveying and comparing ""moments"" from 33 of her distinguished colleagues' cases; and by watching her ""wild child"" patient, little Cammie, develop her own eight ""magical moments"" over a period of fifteen years. These ""moments"" are rare. But by pooling them together, or by looking at how they develop over a long period of time in a single individual, readers are able to achieve further understanding of the process of change in child and adolescent psychotherapy."
