Crenshaw is a licensed psychologist, Board Certified in Clinical Psychology by the American Board of Professional Psychology (ABPP) and Fellow of the Academy of Clinical Psychology. He is the founder and director of the Rhinebeck Child and Family Center, LLC, which offers training and consultation to clinicians and agencies working with at-risk youth. Klappentext Child and Adolescent Psychotherapy is a collection of essays covering the essential ingredients of depth psychotherapy with youth who have been severely wounded by toxic societal influences including abuse, violence, trauma, poverty, devaluation, traumatic or repeated losses, discrimination of all forms, as well as humiliation resulting from devaluation in its many guises. The subjects are not the kids usually included in studies of evidence-based practices because they are excluded due to co-morbidity or the severity of their conditions. Yet it is a hopeful book that expresses the conviction that healing can take place in the context of a committed, in depth, empathy and relationship-based approach. Inhaltsverzeichnis Chapter 1.
