This article describes the treatment of 16 single, white women aged 17-23 years with black mixed-parentage children within an integrative psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioural therapy model. Issues of loss, isolation and familial rejection are discussed. The mothers' abilities to cope with their children's ethnic identities in the context of absent fathers are examined, as are the mother-child relationships. Suggestions are made for enabling therapy.
