The authors expertly demonstrate why it is crucial for clinicians to possess an understanding of the consequences of exposure and to develop effective assessment and intervention skills. Along with a review of relevant research, assessment considerations, and current theories, clinicians are provided with an exploration of practical, evidence-based treatment guidance. These guidelines include suggestions around methods of treatment for both individual and group intervention. Barriers to carrying out treatment are addressed, as well as efficacy and prognosis after intervention. </span><em><span style="font-family: &quot;AGaramondPro-Italic&quot;,&quot;serif&quot;; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-family: AGaramondPro-Italic;">Growing Up with Domestic Violence</span></em><span style="font-family: &quot;AGaramondPro-Regular&quot;,&quot;serif&quot;; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-family: AGaramondPro-Regular;"> offers a good combination of research, theory, and clinical information in a easy-to-read and very concise format.</span></p> ER -
