  • Understanding Sandplay Therapy from a Contemporary Philosophical Perspective: Between East and West
    Understanding Sandplay Therapy from a Contemporary Philosophical Perspective: Between East and West by Beatrice Donald M.A., Adler School of Professional Psychology (Toronto), 1995 M.B.A., York University, 1974 Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Curriculum Theory & Implementation Program Faculty of Education Beatrice Donald 2014 SIMON FRASER UNIVERSITY Fall 2014 Approval Name: Beatrice Donald Degree: Doctor of Philosophy Title: Understanding Sandplay Therapy from a Contemporary Philosophical Perspective: Between East and West Examining Committee: Chair: Dr. Lucy Le Mare Professor Dr. Roger Frie Senior Supervisor Professor Dr. Heesoon Bai Supervisor Professor Dr. Stuart Richmond Internal/External Examiner Professor Dr. Rie Rogers Mitchell External Examiner Professor Emeritus California State University Date Defended: December 12, 2014 ii Partial Copyright Licence iii Ethics Statement iv Abstract This dissertation examines the therapeutic practice of Sandplay in order to elaborate its theoretical underpinnings and provide a contemporary perspective. The research is based on my observation that an intrapsychic model of understanding Sandplay therapy is limited in its accounting for the emergent contextual and relational dynamics at work in the patient’s and therapist’s experience of the Sandplay process and each other. Sandplay is dynamic and experiential. An intrapsychic understanding alone cannot adequately encompass the psychological reach of play which, by its nature, is human and relationally and contextually complex. Because Sandplay is a nonverbal therapy with play as its medium of expression, a philosophical understanding of play is a key element in this critique. Sandplay therapy as envisioned by Dora Kalff is based in classical and developmental Jungian theory in which the process of individuation is viewed as a dynamic intrapsychic process.

  • BIRTH, DEATH and BEYOND MELISSA JANE MIDGEN a Thesis Su
    THE CHILD ANALYTIC TRADITION OF THE SOCIETY OF ANALYTICAL PSYCHOLOGY – BIRTH, DEATH AND BEYOND MELISSA JANE MIDGEN A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the University of East London for the degree of Professional Doctorate in Child Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy December 2016 i Abstract This thesis seeks to chart the creation, development and eventual demise of the child analytic training of The Society of Analytical Psychology (SAP), the foremost Jungian Society in the UK. The brainchild of the Society’s founding director, Michael Fordham, the creation of the child training drew on the talents and persistence of many committed individuals. Through oral history interviews and archival research I weave together a narrative that will serve as testament to this achievement and offer first hand recollections for posterity. Through these sources the narrative also explores the difficulties that the training faced and which ultimately led to its eventual demise. Additionally I interrogate the current status of this tradition of child analysis and ask the question whether or not the tradition continues to exist and if so in what ways; I conclude that currently the tradition can only be said to exist in an attenuated form and that the future is bleak. In the course of the thesis I locate the SAP training within the development more generally of child analytic provision within the UK, the relationship of that to the child guidance movement and to the psychoanalytic diaspora, which made it possible. I describe the current obstacles faced by the child psychotherapy discipline as well as psychoanalytic psychotherapy in the NHS.

  • The Nature of the Primary System
    The Nature of the Primary System Dr. Margaret Lowenfeld On the Psychotherapy of Children Report of conference at Institute of Child Psychology, on the Theory and Technique of Direct Objective Therapy, London, 1948. For the past twenty years, we have been studying children by methods the aim of which was to enable the children to talk, as it were, without the use of language. A careful and detailed analysis of the productions the children have made with materials specially detailed for their use has brought to light a part of the human psyche, which has not been previously described. To this the name of the Primary System has been given, since it is a systematised region of the psyche, appears first and remains for life in the core of the psyche. It is with this system that the following paper deals. To give an account in words of this system is a task set about with great difficulties. The difficulties will be stated first, to show why it is that many gaps must appear in the account. To give a complete account of this part of the psyche one should first describe the system itself, then show how it operates in normal healthy childhood, say what happens to it in adult life and against that background describe the Primary System as we see it in our patients. But this would be a matter of intolerable length and quite outside the limits of this paper. Moreover, there has been no opportunity to study this region of the psyche in normal children in anything resembling the same details has been possible with the disturbed child.

Although dream work therapy for adults is fairly established, recommendations for processing children’s dreams appear fractional. Because of the distinct developmental needs of children, we postulated that sandtray therapy might assist children to express and discover enlarged meanings in dreams.

  • Lowenfeld, Margaret Frances Janes (1890-1973)
    Lowenfeld, Margaret Frances Janes (1890-1973) Lowenfeld, Margaret Frances Jane (1890-1973), Paediatrician, Child Psychiatrist and Child Psychotherapist, was born on 4th February 1890, in Lowndes Square, London, the younger of the two daughters of, Henry ne Heinz Lowenfeld, a business man and property owner of Polish Jewish origin, and Alice Evans, daughter of a Welsh naval captain from a non-conformist Protestant background. After a brief career in medical research, Lowenfeld became a crucial figure in establishing child psychotherapy in Britain as importance of mental health reached public awareness after World War 1. She is particularly well known for ‘The World Technique’ in which, in the course of non-directive psychotherapy, the patient uses a sand tray and model figures to create an imaginary world. The emphasis is on mobilising the potential of the image making process itself rather than, as in psychoanalysis, working through the transference relationship established towards the psychotherapist. Lowenfeld published some nine medical research papers, about twenty-three papers on psychological work, many popular papers, and three books: Play in Childhood (1935), The Lowenfeld Mosaic Test (1955) and The World Technique (1979) published posthumously. Margaret’s elder sister, Helena, became well known as Helena Wright (1887- 1981) , gynaecologist and a pioneer of birth control. Both daughters were brought up in the Church of England and as British citizens. However, Poland exerted a strong influence. Their father was the third son in a land-owning and mining family from Chrzanow, near Krakow, in what was then the Austrian part of Poland. He came to Britain in the early 1880's and was rapidly successful financially, eventually owning several hotels and theatres.

  • Caring-With Dialogic Sculptures. a Post-Disciplinary Investigation Into Forms of Attachment∗
    Articles – peer-reviewed PsicoArt – Rivista di arte e psicologia. Vol. 10 (2020) https://doi.org/10.6092/issn.2038-6184/11444 ISSN 2038-6184 Caring-With Dialogic Sculptures. A Post-Disciplinary Investigation into Forms of Attachment∗ Elena Cologni Published: November 16, 2020 Abstract The ‘art practice as research as art’ discussed set out to investigate through dia- logic art how identity formation is linked with micro-social experiences and place. The project “Seeds of Attachment” by Elena Cologni is centered around a newly developed non-verbal strategy in the form of a sculptural prop, informed by psy- chologist Margaret Lowenfeld’s “Mosaic Test” (1938-1954), and discussed in re- lation to historical precedents in socially engaged art. The activation of the prop during encounters with ‘mothers’ on the school-run route, aimed at offering a context for an understanding of how their attachment to their children influenced the development of an attachment to place. This relational approach is defined as caring with, and underpinned by care ethics and ecofeminism. The implications of the adopted non-verbal dialogic artistic approach are considered in relation to new forms of gendered spatial practices to research on place, including affordances of place, and how these might lead to future post-disciplinary research. La ‘pratica dell’arte come ricerca come arte’ si propone di indagare attraverso l’arte dialogica come la formazione dell’identità sia collegata a esperienze di ti- po micro-sociale e legate al luogo. Il progetto “Seeds of Attachment” di Elena Cologni è incentrato su una strategia non verbale attraverso l’adozione di una scultura-strumento, ispirato dai principi del “Mosaic Test” della psicologa Marga- ret Lowenfeld (1938-1954), e discusso in relazione ai precedenti storici in ambito di arte sociale.

  • The Margaret Lowenfeld Archive Largely Consists of Material Relevant to the Life and Work of the Child Psychiatrist, Dr Margaret Lowenfeld, 1890-1973
    The Margaret Lowenfeld archive largely consists of material relevant to the life and work of the Child Psychiatrist, Dr Margaret Lowenfeld, 1890-1973. It also contains much that is relevant to the history of child psychiatry, paediatrics and child guidance as a whole. The material is organised on the basis of a coding scheme developed from a system originally designed by Ville Andersen, Margaret Lowenfeld’s colleague in research and clinical work from the 1950s until Margaret Lowenfeld’s death. When Ville Andersen herself died in 1986, further material was made available. We are also grateful to friends and colleagues of the late Kate MacSorley, clinical psychologist at the Institute of Child Psychology from the mid nineteen sixties, for placing photographs, clinical records and research material with the archive. Particular thanks are due to Elaine Sharland for sorting through unclassified material. We have not been able to identify or date accurately all the material contained in the archive. Visitors to the archive may be able to provide further information. If so, they are asked to supply the librarian with a wording for an entry to the catalogue which is consistent with the existing scheme. Cathy Urwin, Margaret Lowenfeld Research Fellow, 1981-1990 Sally Roberts, Librarian to the Centre for Family Research Margaret Lowenfeld Archive Catalogue Copies of papers included in Boxes A-D may be found in the Centre for Family Research Library, and are available for general use.

  • The Margaret Lowenfeld Trust Dr Margaret Lowenfeld (1890-1973
    The Margaret Lowenfeld Trust Dr Margaret Lowenfeld (1890-1973) was a pioneer of child psychology and psychotherapy. Her lifelong interest in the growth and development of children began soon after she qualified at the Royal Free Hospital, worked at the Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children and did post-war relief work in Poland where her Polish father had an estate. Much of her work and thinking were based on the use of non-verbal techniques which she developed for children to play ‘therapeutically’ but which could also be used analytically. The best known of these are the Lowenfeld Mosaic Test (LMT). And the Lowenfeld World Technique (LWT). Poleidoblocs and Kaleidoblocs were later added and all are still available and widely used. Her work centred around the Institute of Child Psychology in Bayswater, London. Here children seen and treated at a training programme and recognised diploma operated until the clinic closed about three years about her death. I.C.P. students are still active in several countries. After the 1st war, Dr Lowenfeld established a close relationship with Margaret Mead who used the LMT as a tool in her cross cultural anthropological studies. Following Dr Lowenfeld’s death, it was decided to set up a small charitable trust to continue her work, develop the techniques and relate them to today’s thinking about the problems of child growth, development and therapy. In this respect, it is interesting that the LWT is shown to have an increasing application to family psychotherapy. With the I.C.P. closed because the local health authority withdrew its support as part of the government’s retrenchment programme, an I.C.P.

  • Child Psychotherapy in Historical Context: an Introduction to the Work of Margaret Lowenfeld
    Child Psychotherapy in historical context: an introduction to the work of Margaret Lowenfeld By Cathy Urwin These articles were originally published in Free Associations, Volume 2, No. 23 (1991) and are reprinted with permission. The paper reprinted in this volume is one of the last pieces of work completed by Madeleine Davis. Madeleine was a close friend of Donald Winnicott and after his death edited his unpublished work in collaboration with Clare Winnicott and Ray Shepherd. After Clare Winnicott’s death, her place was taken by Christopher Bollas. In addition in the numerous posthumous works of Winnicott which Madeleine Davis edited, she wrote, together with David Warbridge, Boundary and Space: an introduction to the work of Donald Winnicott (1981). Cathy Urwin Margaret Lowenfeld Research Fellow at the Centre for Family Research, University of Cambridge before moving to London as a Child Psychotherapist. Together with the late John Hood-Williams she edited Margaret Lowenfeld’s Collected Papers, Child Psychotherapy, War and the Normal Child (1988). She also wrote an extended biography of Margaret Lowenfeld, which appears in the Collected Papers. Judging by publishers‘ lists, conference topics and some of the articles in this journal, psychoanalysis, psychotherapy and allied disciplines have begun to show an increasing interest in their own history. Though there are many reasons for this interest, it has clearly been fuelled by the political and social climate of the 1980s, as one aspect of a growing concern among many psychotherapists and other practitioners to place themselves and their work in a broader social context. This concern also applies in psychotherapeutic work with children, where it is particularly obvious that the kinds of symptoms or presenting problems for which children are referred vary historically, both in incidence and in what are identified as forms of deviancy or problems of widespread social concern.
