Psychological Trauma And The Adult Survivor

In this remarkable book, the authors' extensive clinical experience with traumatized clients, as well as their profound awareness of the limitations of existing paradigms, have directed them to construct a new, comprehensive heuristic theory that can be applied effectively across different victim populations. The Constructivist Self Development Theory crucially pivots on the interaction between the survivor's own objective responses and the objective situation that provokes them - with particular emphasis paid to the context of the former. A superb tool for traumatic stress scholars and clinicians alike, and a fundamental textbook for graduate courses in the field.
