Description

It’s not easy when a therapist who’s meeting a traumatized family only possesses the tools to treat an individual child. Unfortunately, until now, systemic treatment for the traumatized family has been limited. In this recording, you’ll gain tools based in systems theory for working effectively with both child and family.
