Description

Raising Parents: Attachment, Representation and Treatment by Patricia McKinsey Crittenden is a crucial guide for understanding how troubled parents can impact their children's well-being. Distressed parents often have unresolved trauma themselves, which can lead to maladaptive parenting practices that put their children at risk of harm or neglect. This book explains the psychological processes behind these issues and introduces DMM Integrative Treatment, a comprehensive approach to assessment, formulation, and treatment. The author provides new formulations for complex cases and showcases real-life examples of how this treatment can be applied in clinical settings. With 10 practical suggestions for improving professionals' responses to troubled families and endangered children, Raising Parents is an invaluable resource for clinicians from various disciplines. By exploring the complexities of parental attachment and representation, Crittenden offers a nuanced understanding of the challenges faced by vulnerable families. This edition of Raising Parents provides a comprehensive introduction to DMM Integrative Treatment, making it an essential read for anyone working with troubled parents and their children.
