They offer a well-reasoned, conceptually sound and thoroughly referenced clinical model for working with addicted adult and adolescent survivors of childhood psychological and physical trauma.... It is the best clinical handbook for working with addicted survivors of trauma that I have come across.... Students and practicing clinicians will discover a gold mine of ideas in this book. Clinical researchers will find a coherent treatment model, which they can examine and subject to empirical verification. --Meredith Hanson, DSW, Columbia University School of Social work, New York, NYIncisive and sensitive at the same time; the best clinical guide of its kind.--James Fine, MD, SUNY Health Science Center of Brooklyn, Clinical Associate Professor, Dept. of Psychiatry, Director, Addictive Disease Hospital Contains a well-referenced, practical therapeutic method for engaging, understanding, and treating this population.

Reading it will benefit anyone who works with addicted and/or traumatized people. -The Post --Traumatic Gazette 1:3, 12/4/1994ƒƒ This book fills an important gap in the existing literature on how to treat clients who present with these co-existing issues. It also presents a philosophy of treatment which is egalitarian, feminist, victim-sensitive and non-blaming. Though written for clinicians, the book contains information which may be helpful for survivors struggling with issues of alcohol and/or drug issues. --Coalition Commentary, 12/4/1994 Review Quote "Treating Addicted Survivors of Traumadeserves to become a basic resource for clinicians who work with addicted survivors of trauma.
