Description
Attachment, Trauma and Resilience offers a unique insight into family life with children who have experienced overwhelming stress. Kate and Brian Cairns, who have fostered 12 children over 25 years, share their personal and professional experience to provide a holistic approach to supporting children's recovery.
The book is structured in three parts, combining Kate's work on trauma and brain injury, and Brian's practical strategies for promoting resilience and healing. Vividly described scenarios illustrate how the family responded to children displaying powerful feelings and difficult behaviours following their experiences of attachment difficulties, loss, abuse and trauma.
This edition brings together the authors' separate works, providing a comprehensive guide for parents, carers and professionals working with children who have experienced trauma. By combining their expertise, Kate and Brian offer a valuable resource for anyone seeking to support children's recovery and promote their resilience.
