About this title

Synopsis

Schauer (psychology, U. of Konstanz, Germany) et al. introduce mental health practitioners to narrative exposure therapy, which integrates psychological rehabilitation with issues of human rights and dignity, for use in the short-term treatment of traumatic stress disorders caused by organized violence, torture, war, rape, and childhood abuse. After description of the theoretical background, rationale, and elements of the therapy, they detail how to use the approach in each session and deal with special issues like avoidance, dissociation, shame, social pain, guilt, withholding information, and ethics. A few excerpts from therapy are included. This edition has a new conceptual understanding of complex and social trauma. Annotation �2011 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
