Description
How to navigate the therapeutic relationship with trauma survivors, to help bring recovery and growth.
When we study trauma, we see how trauma stems from relationships, but recovery also depends on them. Grounded firmly in attachment and trauma theory, this book offers ways to aid clients in self-understanding and attending to their past traumas by using shared retellings in therapy to bring recovery and growth.
Reviews
"One of the great strengths of this accessible, fluidly written book is the way it honours the extremity and reality of posttraumatic stress, while also recognising the possibility and integrity of what he terms ‘post-traumatic growth’." — SCAP
