商品簡介
Psychologists experienced as "fawns in gorilla suits" (i.e., in therapeutic interactions with aggressive and violent children) present a guide to professional treating this challenging population. They introduce 18 principles guiding interventions at different stages, from emphasizing collaboration to setting realistic goals based on a thorough ongoing family assessment. Chapters focus on developmental risk factors, new data from neuroscience, effective parenting, and fostering resilience in traumatized children through adaptations of model prevention and intervention services.
