Recenzii

This is such a helpful and accessible book for all those working alongside people who have experienced traumatic events. The evidence and guidance are clearly summarised and brought to life through case examples. I really recommend it and wouldn't be without it.
Post-Traumatic Stress brings together decades of research and clinical experience to offer a powerful and compassionate exploration of trauma. Stephen Regel and Stephen Joseph enrich understanding of trauma's emotional and behavioural impacts, the risk factors associated with PTSD, and effective ways to assess and support people affected by it. Wise and humane, the book demonstrates how trauma can profoundly disrupt our beliefs and sense of self—while also offer opportunities for growth and connection.
Clear, accessible and fundamentally useful, this book is a must-read for journalists and media teams covering people's stories of trauma and distress. We too can be frontline workers and we owe it to ourselves and our contributors to have a greater understanding and awareness of how to work with sensitivity and informed compassion. Written by true experts in the field, with a vast wealth of knowledge and insight, I can't recommend this book highly enough.
This new edition is excellent as before, but this new and revised edition has plenty of new and updated material which will be invaluable for first responders and those providing their support. It has everything you wanted to know about trauma, especially applicable to workplace and other settings in accessible language. We will recommend it highly for our peer support officers, counsellors and others providing welfare services.
