Description

An essential reference and tool-kit for treating trauma victims now updated and even more comprehensive

This updated and expanded edition of the popular, practical resource for traumatologists is suitable for trained clinicians who want to enhance their skills in treating trauma and for those in training.

The authors present, clearly and in detail, an array of techniques, protocols, and interventions for treating trauma victims (cognitive, behavioral, body- oriented, and emotional / relational). In addition to presenting the founda- tions of CBT treatment for trauma, the authors also provide step-by-step expla- nations of many popular and effective CBT techniques, including Trigger List Development, Breath Training, Layering, Systematic Desensitization, Exposure Therapy, Story-Telling Approaches, as well as new approaches inspired by recent research on neuroplasticity such as Picture Positive, Corrective Messa- ges from Old Storylines, and Thematic Maps. Completely new sections are devoted to forward-facing trauma the- rapy, a safe, effective, and accelerated method of treating trauma, and to clinician self-care.

From reviews of the previous edition: Nifty, down-to-earth, easy to comprehend, and written in a style that allows a good grasp of one principle before moving on to the next. good for both training and clinical practice. Built on a strong empirically based foundation, this book is a must read for all therapists working with survivors of traumatic events .
