Treating Complex Traumatic Stress Disorders in Children and Adolescents : Scientific Foundations and Therapeutic Models
Overview
With contributions from prominent experts, this pragmatic book takes a close look at the nature of complex psychological trauma in children and adolescents and the clinical challenges it presents.
