Press reviews for: Boys Who Have Abused
Community Care
Woods promotes a multi-systematic therapy, incorporating cognitive behaviour and psychoanalytic approaches, in the context of a supportive reliable placement. Rather than idealise one therapeutic approach, Woods encourages practitioners to communicate openly. This provides an antidote to the closed structures and perpetuate abuse... Woods considers the developmental stage and emotional needs of young people as well as the need to focus on behaviour. This book is a hopeful one.
