Overview

According to resiliency theory, resilient persons have self-correcting tendencies that promote their positive adaptation in overcoming trauma. Much of resiliency research focuses on uncovering the attributes (in themselves, their families, or external support systems) that help at-risk individuals withstand stress. Enhancing Resilience in Survivors of Family Violence provides new conceptual frameworks and clinical strategies for integrating resilience-oriented and strengths-based treatment with survivors of family violence. The book discusses resilience in survivors of childhood incest, children of battered women, and individuals formerly in violent domestic relationships. These survivors' personal stories of trauma recovery will help practitioners develop a deeper understanding of the many dimensions of healing from family violence.
