Torey Hayden
The first new book from beloved therapist and writer Torey Hayden in almost 15 years - an inspiring, uplifting tale of a troubled child and the remarkable woman who made a difference.
In a forgotten corner of Wales, a young girl languishes in a home for troubled children. Abandoned by her parents because of her violent streak, Jessie - at the age of 10 - is at risk of becoming just another lost soul in the foster system.
Precocious and bold, Jessie is convinced she is possessed by the devil and utterly unprepared for the arrival of therapist Torey Hayden. Armed with patience, compassion, and unconditional love, Hayden begins working with Jessie once a week. But when Jessie makes a stunning accusation against one of Hayden’s colleagues - a man Hayden implicitly trusts - Hayden’s work doubles: Now she must not only get to the root of Jessie’s troubles, but also find out if what the girl alleges is true.
A moving, compelling, and inspiring account, Lost Child is a powerful testament once again of Torey Hayden’s extraordinary ability to reach children who many have given up on - and a reminder of how patience and love can ultimately prevail.

I admired Torey’s ability to empathize, and care about this truly unlikable child. Her unending patience is remarkable. Consequently, Hayden didn’t do a good job of setting boundaries and she rewarded maladaptive behavior, which probably put her at odds with the staff at the group home.
As a child psychologist, I cringed at some of Hayden’s practices and interventions, though I knew they came from a place of caring. Jessie’s story is fascinating and aside from wanting to ask Torey what she was thinking, LOST CHILD was an enjoyable read. If Hayden’s practices were simply unorthodox I be less bothered, but some of what she did bordered on malpractice. For example, when the cops tell you not to question a child about abuse allegations because doing so could taint the witness, you listen. If the child brings up the abuse, you listen without prodding for more information and you cannot be the investigator, no matter how much you believe a certain scenario. No therapist wants a child molester going free because the defense convinces the jury you led the witness. Children who will testify to abuse often see specialized therapists who are trained for these purposes. Hayden wrote she shouldn’t lead questions in a certain way, yet fails to heed warning.
LOST CHILD, while a fascinating case study, was ultimately a frustrating read.
