Reflective Network Therapy In The Preschool Classroom Summary

Reflective Network Therapy In The Preschool Classroom by Gilbert Kliman

Reflective Network Therapy describes a remarkably effective school-based treatment method that harnesses small social networks for the good of seriously emotionally disturbed preschoolers or those with autism spectrum disorders. The book provides an in-depth explanation of the method - including the work of parents, peers, teachers, and mental health therapists. The RNT method has a substantial evidence base, with about the same number of treated children and a larger number of comparison and control cases as the published IQ results of the most widely used school based method. It has been used in many real life environments and is well-tested for feasibility, replicability, IQ effects, and children's global mental health results. The RNT method does not separate the child from peers by pairing him with an aide but is peer, teacher and parent inclusive. The cost-benefits and human benefits are extraordinary.

Reflective Network Therapy In The Preschool Classroom Reviews

The techniques are far more economical to use than we have found with the Lovaas method (ABA). We have seen the techniques transmitted to special education teachers as well as inexperienced therapists. -- Jay S. Parnes, Ed.D., senior administrator, special education
...Kliman has creatively taken the application of classical child analysis a giant leap forward. -- David Dean Brockman, M.D., editor, The American College of Psychoanalysts Newsletter
It is very helpful that you have very nice follow-up on some of the now-adults who were preschoolers at the time that you intervened in their lives. The IQ rise that follows upon good treatment of these children by your method is very convincing....It is heartening to see the thoughtful and insightful states of mind developing in children as they feel the impact of the interpretations. -- Harry Z. Coren, MD, child and adolescent psychiatrist
Once I tell [people] how Reflective Network Therapy helped me recover and become a happy, thriving child and adult, they are moved beyond belief....RNT may be a powerful means of rehabilitating children with autism spectrum disorders since their difficulties result from their brains responding to interpersonal stimuli by avoiding emotions rather than feeling and processing them. -- Dorian Tenore-Bartilucci, formerly autistic preschooler treated by RNT
