discription
Developed under the auspices of the PTSD Treatment
Guidelines Task Force of the International Society
for Traumatic Stress Studies, this tightly edited
work is the definitive best-practice reference
for practitioners caring for any trauma population.
Leading clinical scientists thoroughly review
the clinical and research literature on widely
used therapeutic approaches. Succinct treatment
guidelines are then presented that feature standardized
ratings of the evidence for each approach. The
second edition has been revised and expanded to
incorporate important advances in the field, including
a wealth of new data on child and adolescent therapies.
Editorial
Review
"Foa et al. help clinicians figure out what
kinds of interventions will be most helpful for
a wide range of clients suffering from PTSD--an
area where science-based guidance is urgently
needed. They offer specific guidelines for designing
and implementing treatments and managing crisis
situations, all backed by clinical research. Frankly,
Foa and her colleagues are the best in the business!"--Marsha
M. Linehan, PhD, ABPP, Professor and Director,
Behavioral Research and Therapy Clinics, University
of Washington
