| Summary: | A comprehensive guide to understanding and assessing psychological trauma and its effects, this practical book presents a step-by-step approach to conducting careful, appropriate, and accurate trauma assessments. Included are detailed profiles of 36 assessment measures recommended by the author - many not previously described in the clinical literature and many available at low or no cost - comprising self-report measures and structured interviews of trauma and trauma responses for adults and children. Containing a wealth of knowledge that can be readily incorporated into practice, Trauma Assessments is an important resource for clinicians working with a wide variety of client populations. Facilitating organized and efficient assessment of diverse clients, this book is an invaluable addition to the professional library of psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, counselors, and other mental health professionals. It is equally useful for students and may serve as supplementary reading in graduate-level courses. |
