About this title

Synopsis

Help children reclaim their humanity after trauma. This guidebook offers valuable insights into the lives of children who have been victimized by chaos or disease, teaching you how to help them grow within a loving, accepting, and ethical bond.

Dr. Norman Fried provides divine connections that serve as an inspiration, as well as a template, for other healthy interactions in a world that needs repair. Using examples, along with writings of Rabbi Joseph Soloveitchik on religion and psychology and the wisdom of trauma specialists, you'll discover effective strategies for:

• Understanding the impact of trauma on children
• Building strong relationships
• Fostering resilience and emotional well-being

This book is for therapists, counselors, parents, teachers, and anyone working with children who have experienced trauma. Through directed action, biblical citations, and psychotherapeutic techniques, you'll empower children to reclaim their humanity and journey toward healthier functioning.
