Joyce C. Mills, Ph.D. Co-author of Therapeutic Metaphors for Children and the Child Within Like the weavers of ancient times, Beverly James has masterfully taken the beautiful 'yarns' entrusted to her care and woven them into the strong fabric of this book...a book which deals with the quintessential element of humankind: attachment. A must for all who work with children and families, offering theory, technique and intervention infused with heart, compassion and spirit. -- Review

Review
Ann M. Jernberg, Ph.D.

Clinical Director, The Theraplay Institute, Chicago

Exactly what those of us who work with abused children have been longing for. Beverly James carefully delineates what step in treatment follows what other step, and cautions us about what will happen if we are impatient or act from our own agenda.



Mark D. Everson, Ph.D.

Co-Director, Program for the Study and Treatment of Childhood Sexual Abuse University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill

Whether you are seeing your first or 500th case of child maltreatment, Beverly James' book is an outstanding treatment resource. It offers an innovative, insightful, and compassionate approach to helping children work through their traumatic experiences. You heard it here first -- this book is sure to become a classic in the field.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book worth its weight in gold!, July 26, 2007
Here is a clinically-based book, that is laden with a deeply compassionate and realistic tone. It went straight to my heart, and will help me enormously in my upcoming career as a therapist. I am in great admiration of Beverly James, and I appreciate the inspiration and personal healing, that I experienced because of reading her work.

5.0 out of 5 stars Treating Traumatized Children, April 3, 2009
I found this book to be very beneficial to my Masters program classwork. The suggestions in the book as well as the therapy practice information are an excellent source for dealing with traumatized children. I would highly recommend it to any counseling therapist who deals with children or adolescents. A definite positive addition for your treatment library.
