How to Recognize and Treat the Invisible Wounds of Neglect
It can be easy to miss the signs that a client has experienced neglect.
That’s because these clients don’t usually come in with the classic trauma symptoms we are trained to look for.
But there are signs. This client may be going through life keeping others at arm’s length, putting themselves last, and never quite believing they deserve more.
While they might insist that their childhood wasn’t actually that bad, they are shut down emotionally, can’t seem to follow through, and don’t expect anyone to show up for them.
And emerging research is revealing that childhood neglect can have a huge impact on a client’s executive function later in life.
As a practitioner, it’s crucial to become adept at recognizing the signs of neglect and choose the appropriate trauma interventions for working with it.
That’s why we gathered twelve of our field’s leading experts to give you their best strategies for identifying and treating neglect.
