Using Therapeutic Life Story work to improve the behavioural and emotional issues of children in out-of-home care (OOHC)

This thesis is comprised of two studies. The first is a systematic review undertaken to identify and evaluate existing evidence on the use of Life Story Work (LSW)interventions with children in out of home care (OOHC) (n=8). The second examines the extent to which Therapeutic LSW improves the behavioural and emotional issues of children in residential OOHC.
