The Child Psychotherapy Trust ceased to exist in 2004 after successfully fulfilling its mission to promote child psychotherapy in the NHS and contribute financially towards the training of child and adolescent child psychotherapists. It was established in 1987.

    The Scottish Child Psychotherapy Trust continues to exist; for details please contact Mrs Catriona Fife, 5 La Belle Place, Glasgow G3 7LH.

    Many people have tried to find the professionally very well respected leaflets about the emotional development of children, called Understanding childhood, written by child psychotherapists. These leaflets and other publications from the Child Psychotherapy Trust are available to be viewed or downloaded free on www.understandingchildhood.net

    Printed copies of the leaflets in bulk quantities are also available. Please contact Understanding Childhood for details.
