%X This paper looks at the role of individual psychotherapy with a severely sexually abused girl in a therapeutic community, and the place of this work as she makes the transition into foster-care. It emphasizes the importance, not only of the individual work, but also of the drawing together of the work around the child, particularly at such a critical time. There is discussion of the ideas of 'deadness' versus 'aliveness' in the therapy, and detailed case material is used.Keywords: Child psychotherapy; sexual abuse; therapeutic community; foster-care; transitions; transitional space<p />
