Free Book: Addressing Shame in Child and Family Therapy

child trauma

Download now for free my latest book: Addressing Shame in Child and Family Therapy. I’m offering this book merely because I feel it has important insights that are often overlooked in treating children and families. Written for mental health clinicians, it is understandable for parents as well.

This 128-page PDF offers a completely new paradigm for considering child behaviors, breaking free from the DSM’s pathologizing diagnostic labels and explaining common child emotional experiences and behavioral responses through the lens of shame sensitivity. Provides specific interventions for parents and children, treatment planning concepts and goals, detailed case formulation examples, and assessment pearls.
