This book provides an overview of the core research and theory on
polyvictimization - exposure to multiple types of victimization
that may have negative and potentially lifelong biopsychosocial
impacts. The contributors to the volume address such topics as
measurement issues in how polyvictimization should be assessed and
measured; developmental risks of early childhood polyvictimization
for maltreated children in foster care; gender differences in
polyvictimization and its consequences among juvenile
justice-involved youth; the importance of trauma-focused treatment
for polyvictimized youth in the juvenile justice system; and the
nature of polyvictimization in the internet era. Suited to readers
who are new to the topic including graduate and undergraduate
students, as well as researchers and clinicians who want a concise
update on the latest empirical research from the frontiers of this
field, this book provides findings and methodological innovations
of interest to researchers and human service professionals. This
book was originally published as a special issue of the Journal of
Trauma & Dissociation.

While recent years have seen a vast increase in the literature on
adult trauma, interest in childhood trauma has only recently
started to gain momentum, encouraging new research and
evidence-based interventions. Here the editors have brought
together an international list of contributors to look at both
innovative and established treatments of trauma in a range of
contexts, and provide up-to-date coverage of what is on offer in
prevention, assessment, treatment and research. Divided into three
parts, main topics discussed are: risk and protective factors for
the development of post-traumatic disorders conceptualizations of
resilience and suggestions for making them operational
evidence-based treatment models for traumatized children Treating
Traumatized Children provides professionals with an up-to-date
international perspective on the subject, as well as helping
professionals and researchers develop future treatments based on
current evidence.
This authoritative reference on complex traumatic stress disorders
(CTSDs) and their assessment and treatment has now been
significantly revised with more than 75% new material reflecting a
decade of advances in the field. Leading experts delve into ways to
understand, engage, assess, and treat adults with complex trauma
histories, whose symptoms often include but may go well beyond
those of posttraumatic stress disorder. The volume presents
cutting-edge theory and research on CTSDs, considers diagnostic
controversies, and identifies core elements of effective,
culturally responsive treatment. Established and emerging therapies
specifically tailored to this population are described and
illustrated with vivid case examples. Other highlights are chapters
on transtheoretical treatment, the crucial role of professionalism
and training, and recognizing and managing vicarious
traumatization. New to This Edition *Incorporates major advances in
research and clinical practice. *Chapters on additional
evidence-based individual treatments: prolonged exposure therapy,
cognitive therapy, cognitive processing therapy, brief eclectic
psychotherapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing
therapy, narrative exposure therapy, interpersonal psychotherapy,
emotion-focused therapy, and the TARGET recovery model. *Chapters
on additional evidence-based group and conjoint family therapy
models: attachment-based couple therapy and integrated treatment of
co-occurring CTSDs and substance use disorders. *Chapters on
promising treatments: treatment for structural dissociation,
experiential/somatotherapy approaches, mindfulness approaches, and
complementary healing therapies. See also Drs. Ford and Courtois's

What do you do when your client flies into a rage or has a severe
panic attack during a therapy session?  Author Julian
D. Ford explains how to harness such crises for
breakthroughs. Crises that erupt in the midst
of a psychotherapy session can be overwhelming not just
for the client but also for the therapist. Yet every crisis also
can be a therapeutic breakthrough. With this
book, therapists learn how to transform such critical
moments in psychotherapy into powerful and positive turning
points. Drawing from trauma and attachment theory and the
essential principles of psychotherapy and crisis management, Ford
explains how crises can be understood as episodes of extreme
emotional dysregulation. With a series of indepth case
examples, Ford shows how therapists can utilize emotion regulation
as a practical framework to deescalate crises. Each case
study is a transcript of a psychotherapy session, complete with
dialogue and commentary, featuring reallife expert
clinicians who use a crisis as an opportunity to help clients face
and resolve a sense of being damaged, betrayed, or
abandoned. With wisdom, compassion, and a deep understanding
of human emotions, this book teaches essential skills that all
therapists will need.
