Review Healing Child Trauma Through Restorative Parenting offers a coherent theoretical contribution, and a helpful addition to the range of literature on therapeutic residential interventions, that are so critical to meet the needs of the growing number of traumatised children and young people who find themselves looked after on behalf of our society. As such, the book, and the model it expounds, emphasises the important role that residential care placements can offer in providing a vital time and space in which young people can safely explore, and ultimately internalise positive experiences of the emotional health enhancing attachments that they need, with safe, caring and nurturing adults. -- John Diamond, CEO, The Mulberry Bush OrganisationHealing Child Trauma Through Restorative Parenting provides a much-needed resource for anyone working with children suffering from the impact of traumatic or abusive parenting. Robinson and Philpot address the need for a more comprehensive approach to care, providing clinicians and caregivers with evidence-based skills for re-parenting a traumatized child. -- Mary C. Walsh, D.Min., LMFTHaving the responsibility of being the primary carer and homemaker for a child, you often find yourself looking for someone to reorient you with the needs of a young person. This book includes reminders of the subtle everyday things that make care personal. It describes methods and strategies as it shows how child-centred childrens services can be, if these principles and practices are applied. Central to the book is that the professional task has to be more than a theory, more than a professional practice. It has to be a relationship, its personal and its a necessary precondition for positive development. Whatever you are doing at whatever time of day and wherever you are, this book can be there with you helping you to hold the child in mind so that every moment is one devoted to growth and development. Its a gem of a book. -- Jonathan Stanley, Principal Partner, National Centre for Excellence in Residential Child Care and CEO, Independent Childrens Homes Association Promotional A pioneering therapeutic parenting model to help children recover from abuse or neglect Long Description How can we help heal children who have been abused or neglected?
