Synopsis

A ground\-breaking book from leading experts, Trauma and Intellectual Disabilities<\/i> considers what is now known about trauma in the lives of people with intellectual disabilities, explores Trauma\-Informed Care (TIC) in support services, and presents a diverse range of therapeutic interventions now being effectively employed to achieve better life outcomes for those affected.\n

\nThe provision of health and social care services is becoming more trauma\-informed, including services for people with intellectual disabilities (ID) where the experience of trauma is being increasingly acknowledged. Trauma and Intellectual Disabilities<\/i> addresses a gap in resources to guide those supporting people with ID by showing how services can work in a trauma informed way. Including contributions from authoritative professionals in the field, and a powerful account of abuse from an expert by experience, the book explores the history that underpins the importance of trauma and TIC, and the impact of trauma on people with ID. The second part of the book looks at trauma\-informed services and presents therapeutic interventions including positive behavioural support, intensive interaction, cognitive behavioural psychotherapy, dyadic interpersonal psychotherapy, and developmental and psychodynamic approaches.
