Research Update: Child Abuse and Neglect

Keywords

research on abuse, treating abuse victims, abuse survivors, child abuse

Abstract

Research has linked child abuse and neglect with problems in brain development and long-term behavioral consequences. Due to the overwhelming number of people who have experienced abuse it is likely that clinicians will come across a client who has a history of abuse. This research update focuses on recently published articles that provide helpful information for psychotherapists working with clients who are abuse victims.
