For families and caregivers as well as students and professionals of health, psychology, and social care, this book is a psychological therapy guide for intellectually disabled adults. Factors such as social deprivation are examined in relationship to mental and emotional issues experienced by this population. Topics include preparation of clients for therapy, treatment method adjustment, and working with families and caregivers of individuals. Interventions for more specific problems, including anxiety, depression, psychosis, anger, and sexual deviance, are also addressed. A broad perspective and range of approaches makes this book invaluable for those who work with the intellectually challenged.
