This is underpinned by the care and attention of introducing the 'sleeping dogs' model! which offers a structured way of working! creating the appropriate therapeutic environment." - Simon Carpenter!

For the past three years! Arianne Struik has been working on major new projects! in which she shows her ability to develop and refine both the theory and practice of working with traumatized children. She is an excellent teacher and her ability to convey complex knowledge relating traumatized children to other professionals is both nuanced and precise.This book charts the way in which we! in The Copenhagen Community Social Services! have been able to work together with Arianne Struik over the past three years.
