Description:

As mental health professionals grapple with the surge in cases of post-traumatic stress disorders, post-traumatic growth (PTG) as an established treatment approach has grown in appeal. Posttraumatic Growth and Culturally Competent Practice offers contributions from an international group of experts who study PTG in diverse cultures and subcultures including Palestinian, Israeli, Chinese, Turkish, and Albanian. This important book authoritatively addresses the theoretical, empirical and clinical aspects of PTG. Professionals in the fields of social work, psychology, counseling, and psychiatry will benefit from this bookâ€²s practical insights and evidence-based practice approach.
