Chapter 6 then addresses both normal acute stress reactions and clinically significant ASD, as well as effective interventions for each. In short this comprehensive, sophisticated, practical, guide isdesigned for all practitioners who wish to providethe best treatment for PTSD and ASD. Biografía del autor Matthew J.
