This book addresses the multifaceted nature of trauma by bringing together the many theoretical perspectives that explain how people cope with traumatic life experiences. Practitioners working across the people professions frequently find themselves working with service users, patients and clients who are survivors of trauma. Ranging between attachment, person-centred and anti-oppressive approaches, this text will help students and practitioners widen their approaches to such clients’ experiences.

Whether you are a student or practitioner of counselling, social work or mental health, this book provides the foundations for understanding people's responses and resilience against traumatic life experiences.

Louise Harms is Deputy Head of Social Work and Director of Teaching and Learning, Melbourne School of Social Sciences, University of Melbourne, Australia.

She has written widely in the area of trauma, and is the author of Working with people: Communication skills for reflective practice.
