This book provides a comprehensive overview of the impact of trauma on children. The Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy approach is described in detail, making it easy for practitioners to implement into their practice. I highly recommend this book for mental health practitioners treating traumatized youth.

This book was required reading for a postgraduate course for professionals in treating trauma. Excellent resource for the professional counselor - may even be applied to young adults, adults with delayed emotional developmental issues, or developmentally disabled adults. Highly recommended graduated-exposure and appropriate titration to the processing of trauma experiences using an evidence-based practice.

After attending trainings on this method I was inclined to get the book which went into more detail on the TF-CBT method. I find the book helpful and a good reminder of the "shoulds" and "should nots" for this treatment modality. Worth the money and not a bad price.
