I have been a therapist for over 10 years and I use most of the strategies that the book reviewed. As with most therapies I have missed some of the details. The book does a good job of giving concrete examples and allowing for some individualization for clients' needs. Not as rigid as my typical perception of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I have been a play therapist for year and with kids who my time is limited or who are ready for more structured therapy I think this method will work well. I have seen some good results from the trauma narrative that has really helped clients get to the next level of healing. This book is also a pretty quick read only being about 200 pages of content and the rest is useful worksheets. I did it in conjunction with the online training at [..]

A truly excellent resource. We found it after a great deal of research. Specially recommended to families of small children traumatized by abuse. Dr. Cohen is brilliant.

I have to agree with the other reviews that describe this book as thorough and well-written. The authors use language that is psychology-based but also accessible to non-psychology oriented readers. It is written in a logical order and covers all the bases of trauma-based therapy work.
One thing that I especially appreciate about this book is that it discusses the various domains of one's life that trauma affects: emotions, thoughts, behaviors, biological/physical factors, etc. I also love how easily it lays out the steps that are taken to help a traumatized child/teen. The "PRACTICE" approach that the authors introduce is easy to follow and to put into action, for the most part. Even for therapists who are not using the CBT model of psychology (which is me), this book gives plenty of good ideas and tips for how to best treat those affected by trauma.
The appendices are also quite helpful in guiding readers to related works and in providing concrete examples of activities suggested by the authors.
Overall, this is a very worthy read!
