Riassunto

In the U.S. alone, approximately 1.5 million adult female survivors of rape are estimated to suffer from chronic PTSD. This invaluable book--informed by the latest research and written by two of the leading authorities in the field--provides a step-by-step guide to proven brief therapy techniques for treating traumatized women. Filling an urgent need of front-line practitioners working within managed care guidelines, the book includes numerous case examples illustrating sensitive and effective information-gathering and intervention, as well as explanations of how to cope with common problems and complications in treatment.
