Product Description
Examines the types of mental health problems that street people are likely to present, studies how these problems are exacerbated by homelessness, and offers several approaches and strategies for effective intervention. Sensitizes practitioners to the needs and biases of the homeless vis-a-vis mental health personnel. Deals with street people's stress, pressures on clinicians with such clients, and reasons why the homeless generally avoid contact with mental health establishments. Includes 60 vignettes involving interactions between practitioners and street persons.
