Through diverse voices, including clinical and counselling psychologists, child and adult psychotherapists, counsellors and psychological wellbeing practitioners, these evocative narratives reveal what it means to bring forth and hold stories that make sense of overwhelming experiences for others.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOrganised across four thematic sections—exploring the 'what?', 'how?', 'where?' and 'who?' of neonatal psychological practice—the book weaves together first-person narratives, reflective pieces and conversations with conceptual commentaries that provide theoretical and empirical context. Chapters address the nature of psychological intervention during ongoing trauma, the therapeutic processes of holding and containment, clinical and ethical dilemmas arising from positioning within multidisciplinary teams, and the mutual influence between practitioners' selves and their work. Topics span transitioning into parenthood, neonatal loss and trauma, parent-infant relationships, staff support, personal and professional boundaries and experiences of leadership, offering both anchor and compass for this rapidly evolving field.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWritten with accessibility in mind, this book assumes no background in psychological training and speaks to a wide readership: psychological professionals seeking to learn about or deepen their neonatal practice; allied health professionals, nurses, medics and other multidisciplinary team members wanting to understand their colleagues' roles; parents and families who have experienced neonatal care; and anyone interested in discovering what psychological professionals can offer within the neonatal system. By celebrating diverse approaches, this anthology of creativity, connection and courage opens up new possibilities for practice while honouring the complex reality of this profoundly human work. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDavy Evans\u003c\/b\u003e is a consultant clinical psychologist in NHS paediatric and neonatal psychology services in Birmingham, UK, and was previously Lead Psychologist for the West Midlands Neonatal Operational Delivery Network.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRuth Butterworth\u003c\/b\u003e is a consultant clinical psychologist and Lead Psychologist for the NHS North West Neonatal Operational Delivery Network.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEllie Atkins\u003c\/b\u003e is a consultant clinical psychologist and Lead Psychologist for the London Neonatal Operational Delivery Network.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRebecca Chilvers\u003c\/b\u003e is a consultant clinical psychologist and Lead Psychologist for the East of England Neonatal Operational Delivery Network.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSamantha Cole\u003c\/b\u003e is head of adult psychological health services in the NHS in Bristol, UK, and Lead Psychologist of the South West Neonatal Operational Delivery Network.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJacinta Cordwell\u003c\/b\u003e is a consultant clinical psychologist and Lead Psychologist for the Thames Valley and Wessex Neonatal Operational Delivery Network.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAnita D'Urso\u003c\/b\u003e is a consultant clinical psychologist and Lead Psychologist for the East Midlands Neonatal Operational Delivery Network.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12 November 2026\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTaylor \u0026amp; Francis\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRoutledge\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9781032880358\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePaperback softback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePage Count: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e266\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight (oz): \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e18.75\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":63547028570252,"sku":"9781032880358","price":38.69,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9781032880358","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
