Language Deprivation and Deaf Mental Health explores the impact of
the language deprivation that some deaf individuals experience by
not being provided fully accessible language exposure during
childhood. Leading experts in Deaf mental health care discuss the
implications of language deprivation for a person's development,
communication, cognitive abilities, behavior, and mental health.
Beginning with a groundbreaking discussion of language deprivation
syndrome, the chapters address the challenges of psychotherapy,
interpreting, communication and forensic assessment, language and
communication development with language-deprived persons, as well
as whether cochlear implantation means deaf children should not
receive rich sign language exposure. The book concludes with a
discussion of the most effective advocacy strategies to prevent
language deprivation. These issues, which draw on both cultural and
disability perspectives, are central to the emerging clinical
specialty of Deaf mental health.
