(Producer) Children who have been victims of abuse or other stressful events may exhibit severe trauma-related symptoms. In this video, Dr. Gil elucidates the nature of trauma, how to recognize it clinically, and how to manage its powerful effects upon children's development with the use of artwork and play. Filled with examples of children's artwork, sand play, and other forms of creative expression, the program contrasts the work of children who have been traumatized with that of normally functioning children. Dr. Gil balances general conceptual guidelines with in-depth commentary on specific cases.
