Susan Barton and Rudy Gonzalez and Patrick Tomlinson - Therapeutic Residential Care for Children And Young People: An Attachment And Trauma-Informed Model for Practice

Jessica Kingsley Pub 2011 Paperback, 287pp. This book provides a model of care for traumatized children and young people, based on theory and practice experience pioneered at the Lighthouse Foundation, Australia. The authors explain the impact of trauma on child development, drawing on psychodynamic, attachment and neurobiological trauma theories. The practical aspects of undertaking therapeutic care are then outlined, covering everything from forming therapeutic relationships to the importance of the home environment and daily routines. The book considers the totality of the child's experience at the individual, group, organization and community levels and argues that attention to all of these is essential if the child is to achieve wellness. Case material from both children and carers are used throughout to illustrate both the impact of trauma and how children have been helped to recovery through therapeutic care. Stain to top side text block edge. (ISBN: 9781849052559). Good.
