The Child's Own Story: Life Story Work with Traumatized Children (Delivering Recovery)

A practice-focused guide to life story work, it shows how this effective tool can be used to help young people recover from abuse and make sense of a disrupted upbringing in multiple homes or families. Though some sections apply more to the system in Great Britain, where it was written, it is a resource for social workers, child psychotherapists, residential care staff, long-term foster parents and other professionals working with traumatized children.
