Series: Norton Series on Interpersonal Neurobiology

The model of treatment developed here is grounded in the physical, psychological, and cognitive reactions children have to traumatic experiences and the consequences of those experiences. The approach to treatment utilizes the integrative capacity of the brain to create a self, foster insight, and produce change. Treatment strategies are based on cutting-edge understanding of neurobiology, the development of the brain, and the storage and retrieval of traumatic memory. Case vignettes illustrate specific examples of the reactions of children, families, and teens to acute and repeated exposure to traumatic events.

Also presented is the most recent knowledge of the role of the right hemisphere (RH) in development and therapy. Right brain communication, and how to recognize the non-verbal symbolic and unconscious, affective processes will be explained, along with examples of how the therapist can utilize art making, media, tools, and self to engage in a two-person biology.

Reviews for Neurobiologically Informed Trauma Therapy with Children and Adolescents: Understanding Mechanisms of Change

I could not put this book down! This is a must-read volume that will deepen and enrich clinical understanding and greatly enhance clinical assistance to the many victims of trauma. A thoughtful, careful, well-informed clinician, Linda Chapman integrates science and her professional experience to explain the ''''why''''s'''' of positive outcomes through expressive therapies and the models she has developed for addressing acute and chronic trauma. As she weaves together research data and accessible practice interventions, Chapman s dedication to helping trauma survivors shines through in each page. I learned so much and can''''t wait to implement her models with my patients. --Eliana Gil, PhD, Founder, Gil Institute for Trauma Recovery and Education; Director, Starbright Training Institute for Child and Family Play Therapy; Past President, Association for Play Therapy
