Looking back to light the path forward: Ghosts in the Nursery revisited
Infant mental health journal(2023)
摘要
The infant health movement was launched nearly 50 years ago with the publication of the now classic paper, Ghosts in the Nursery: A psychoanalytic approach to the problems of impaired infant-mother relationships, written by Selma Fraiberg, Edna Adelson, and Vivian Shapiro (1975). This paper offers us lessons for infant mental health practice that have been proven true time and again over the last 50 years. These lessons both underscore the factors essential to clinical progress across a range of interventions, and remind us of the significant challenges we face in these times of massive, global trauma and oppression, extreme economic hardship, and systemic racism. This commentary reviews the key lessons of Fraiberg and her colleagues' classic paper, addresses some of the challenges inherent in retaining the breadth and substance of Fraiberg's model in contemporary practice, and proposes a model for conceptualizing infant and early childhood mental health practice that is geared toward building the relational foundations of reflection (Slade, 2023).
