Produktbeschreibung

Invisible Shrapnel: The Legacy of Emotional Abuse provides an overview of the types of emotional abuse children and youth may encounter, anecdotes that illustrate impacts on the functioning of young people exposed to such abuse, potential developmental disturbances, and strategies adults can use to mediate the effects of abuse. One does not need to be a therapist to take corrective action. The research on resilience makes it clear that teachers, coaches, neighbors, extended family members, and others in a young person's environment can positively impact the youth's trajectory. This book offers a wealth of information on the topic of emotional abuse along with a clear message to all who care about the health of our young people that who the adult chooses to be matters.

Autorenporträt

Sylvia Rockwell dedicated her career to working with children and youth with emotional and behavioral disorders as well as those in at-risk settings. She has worked in wilderness, therapeutic camps; in classroom settings; and at the university level. In addition to her professional work, she is a mother, grandmother, and wife. Through her own personal work with therapists to address the impacts of trauma during her developmental years and her experiences with students over four decades of professional work and research, she knows the risks of emotional abuse and neglect from both sides of the desk. Invisible Shrapnel: The Legacy of Emotional Abuse is meant to both inform and inspire all to mindfully communicate with young people.
