Bücher von Michael J. Scott

The author is in his 90th decade. Throughout his long life dealing with many different types of people he wondered how it was that some people having the worst of starts in life, with poverty and abuse as their companions achieved their own success whilst others who were born with the proverbial silver spoon in their mouths failed completely in their goals. The research into the causes took nearly 30 years. This book is the result.

Maps out how to therapeutically treat sufferers of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) using a cognitive behavioural approach to treatment. Covering the spectrum of post-traumatic states, this book outlines a range of techniques for counselling clients who have suffered major trauma.

Offering conceptualizations of many common client problems, this book develops the cognitive-behavioural counselling approach. It elaborates the specifics of tackling problems as diverse as surviving in a family with a personality disordered member and post-traumatic stress disorder.
