While it is well known that the emotional effects of divorce,
family violence or substance abuse can cause problems later in a
child's life, we have come to realise that overprotection and
bullying at school can be equally crippling.
"The Emotionally Abused and Neglected Child, Second Edition,"
discusses the ways in which we can identify and assess cases of
emotional abuse and neglect. Using proven theories and illustrative
case studies, it adopts a multidimensional approach to effective
intervention.
The book provides checklists, assessment tools and a wide range
of therapeutic methods, all tested for efficacy. The methods used
include play therapy, attachment work, family therapy,
behavioural-cognitive therapies and marital counselling. Looking
beyond the family context, it discusses legal aspects and it
investigates problems in residential settings, foster homes,
schools, detention centres and secure units.
This second edition features a range of new topics, including
bullying, divorce and domestic violence, and has been expanded to
include adolescents. It provides a fully comprehensive study of
this area, and will be an invaluable resource for social workers,
paediatricians, psychologists, health visitors, nurses, teachers,
lawyers, parents, foster-parents, carers and all others involved in
this problematic area.
