This is the first book of its kind to advocate utilizing and combining an assortment of trauma treatment models.
Based on ideas put forward in the bestselling The Body Remembers, Babette Rothschild emphasizes the importance
of tailoring every trauma therapy to the particular needs of each individual client. A breath of fresh air in the
competitive 'mine is best' atmosphere currently so divisive in the field of trauma therapy, each varied and complex
case (presented in a variety of writing styles: case reports, session-by-session narratives, single session transcripts)
is approached with a combination of methods ranging from traditional psychodynamic and cognitive approaches and
applications of attachment theory to innovative trauma methods including EMDR and Levine's SIBAM model.
Read on its own on or in conjunction with The Body Remembers, clinicians from all disciplines will discover new
strategies and gain insight into how to combine various treatment models for increased success with traumatized
clients.
