Treatment of Traumatized Adults and Children / Clinician's Guide to Evidence-Based Practice Series (ePub)

Praise for Treatment of Traumatized Adults and
Children

"A major stumbling block to adoption of evidence-based practice
in the real world of clinical practice has been the absence of
clinician-friendly guides. Such guides need to be understandable,
free of technical research jargon, infused with clinical expertise,
and rich with real-life examples. Rubin and Springer have hit a
home run with this series, which has all of these characteristics
and more."

--Edward J. Mullen, Willma & Albert Musher Chair
and Professor, Columbia University

"Rubin and Springer have assembled the wisdom of leading
practitioners of evidence-based practice interventions, enhancing
the likelihood that these practices will be adopted by helping
professionals. Written in the language of practitioners, this book
represents an exemplar for dissemination of evidence-based practice
information."

--Joanne Yaffe, Associate Professor, University of Utah
