dc.description.abstractThe prolonged and invasive treatment common to cancer therapy protocols may lead to precocious defenses which impede the future development of preschool-aged cancer survivors. Focal play therapy offers the young cancer survivor a chance to understand and master the cancer experience. At present there are no accounts in the literature of the psychotherapy of young cancer survivors. This paper presents a detailed account of the therapy of a preschooler who survived a brain tumor, emphasizing the child's perspective on the cancer experience and an intervention approach which stresses mastery of developmental impasses, rather than psychopathology.en_US
