Reviews
'{Pozzi's] writing is clear, evocative and allows us to see the work of an experienced and tactful therapist whose insight and capacity to understand the troubled families who come to see her bring about change remarkable in its depth. It is not often we are privileged to share the detailed, intimate and profound contact which these clinical encounters reveal, covering as they do many of the common problems characteristic of this age range. It is only an experienced and sensitive clinician who can trust herself to offer the combination of flexibility and safe boundaries so as to accomplish so much in a brief intervention. Maria Pazzi illustrates her intuition and flair in the accounts she gives of her inspiring work.'- Mary Twyman, British Psychoanalytic Society
