Sumario:"Clinicians seeking to treat women experiencing both a history of trauma and the effects of substance abuse will find this book to be a hands-on guide. The intertwined nature of trauma and addiction is explored through a review of recent research, with a focus on treatment options for posttraumatic stress disorder and addiction. Vital background material describes the effects of trauma on emotion regulation, interpersonal functioning, parenting, and physical health. Finally, the book addresses the many real-world challenges clinicians face in implementing trauma-focused therapeutic approaches in community-based substance abuse treatment. The authors provide an essential resource for substance abuse program directors who want to broaden their services to better assist their clients. This book will also be helpful for clinicians and social workers wanting to better understand the complicated nature of their clients' problems, researchers seeking to expand on the current body of knowledge on treatment for addiction and trauma comorbidity, and all looking to further develop integrated treatments to help lead women to recovery"--Jacket.

"Violence against women has been studied in thousands of research articles and books across multiple disciplines. The extraordinary range of subtopics alone makes it difficult for clinicians, teachers, and researchers to form a coherent picture of the phenomenon. This book comprehensively examines and integrates a vast and diverse literature base, drawing from divergent findings to reveal a picture of complexity and of intertwining risk and resilience factors. It is an excellent resource for doctoral dissertations in any of the three major fields covered: adult (female) victimization, substance abuse among women, and mental health issues for women. Readers who work in any of these fields will find this book a provocative and indispensable resource"--Cover. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2009 APA, all rights reserved)
