Kroppen husker - om krop og psyke i traumebehandling
Traumatiserede mennesker har erindringer om de traumatiserende begivenheder indlejret i både deres hjerne og deres krop. Disse erindringer kommer tydeligst til udtryk i de symptomer, der også kendetegner posttraumatisk stress: mareridt, flashbacks, angstreaktioner og dissociativ adfærd. For både behandlere og klienter er det af overordentlig stor værdi at forstå ikke bare psykens, men også kroppens reaktioner på traumer og vide, hvordan denne indsigt bruges i arbejdet med den somatiske hukommelse.
I bogen reduceres kløften mellem videnskabelig teori og klinisk praksis. Der bygges bro mellem samtaleterapi og kropsterapi og Babette Rothschild præsenterer principper og non-touchteknik som redskaber i behandlingen.
Bogen er spækket med spændende case studies. "Kroppen Husker" integrerer krop og sind i behandlingen af posttraumatisk belastningsreaktion. Det vil appellere til klinikere, forskere, studerende og mennesker der af anden anledning er i berøring med traumer.

A breath of fresh air in the competitive 'mine is best' atmosphere currently so divisive in the field of trauma therapy, each varied and complex case (presented in a variety of writing styles: case reports, session-by-session narratives, single session transcripts) is approached with a combination of methods ranging from traditional psychodynamic and cognitive approaches and applications of attachment theory to innovative trauma methods including EMDR and Levine's SIBAM model.
Read on its own on or in conjunction with The Body Remembers, clinicians from all disciplines will discover new strategies and gain insight into how to combine various treatment models for increased success with traumatized clients.
