Trauma-Informed Care: A Casebook provides readers with thought-provoking and invaluable cases to help them improve their skills in working with clients presenting trauma-based problems and diagnoses. The opening chapter presents the Advanced Multiple Systems (AMS) approach, which provides readers with a series of guiding practice principles to use while evaluating the cases. In proceeding chapters, readers learn about a 77-year-old African American man who suffered the trauma of Hurricane Katrina; an adolescent female who identifies as male and experiences significant personal, family, and social issues on his way to embracing his gender identity; and an adolescent girl in a foster care placement unsuitable for her situation. Additional cases follow a successful salesman and community member whose childhood involved trauma, rape, and loss, and a lesbian women in a long-term, committed relationship who suffers with problems on the job because of her gender identity and desire to surgically transition from female to male. The final chapter reviews best practices in the field of trauma and trauma-informed care. Trauma-Informed Care is part of the Cognella Casebook Series for the Human Services, a collection of textbooks that challenge students to learn through example, build critical competencies, and prepare for effective, vibrant practice.
