ABSTRACT
Many people in different professions and with a wide range of training backgrounds are drawing inspiration from psychoanalyst' presentations of infant therapy and the method it involves. The method brings about a sense of sharing whatever is in the present moment. The individual practitioner is inspired to use the method of infant therapy in here-and-now situations. In these situations trained psychologist and do not use the term “therapy”, as therapy is only conducted by trained psychologist and psychotherapists; however, the method of infant therapy is an important didactic tool, including social services, health-care, day care, nurseries, and schools. A psychologist or a psychotherapist may reach back to a time before the child was born, before the trauma occurred, and work with the trauma, reaching back to a peaceful moment in the child’s life and working through the trauma.
