Springer Nature Switzerland AG Treating Complex Trauma: Combined Theories and Methods
Book SynopsisThis forward-thinking volume outlines several approaches to therapeutic treatment for individuals who have experienced complex childhood and adult trauma, providing a novel framework for helping patients with a number of challenging symptoms, with clinical hypothesis testing and solid therapeutic relationships as a vital foundation. Responding to the intense disagreement and competition among clinicians championing their own approaches, the book identifies the strengths and limitations of multiple therapeutic approaches, addressing the need for qualified clinicians to be versed in multiple theories and techniques in order to alleviate suffering in their clients. Among the topics discussed: How to choose specific therapeutic methods and when to shift techniques The neurobiology of trauma and management of fear Cultural and ethnic considerations in trauma treatment Addressing avoidance and creating a safe therapeutic environment Management of dissociation, substance abuse, and anger Treating Complex Trauma: Combined Theories and Methods serves as a practical guide for clinicians looking to expand their knowledge of approaches for treating complex trauma. It aims to provide clinicians with options for different therapeutic methods, along with the necessary context for them to select the most effective approach in their treatments."For the first time in the professional literature we are finally afforded a clear, cogent, and detailed explication of complex trauma and the multifaceted parameters of treatment. Dr. Tamara McClintock Greenberg provides perspicacious insight and clinical wisdom only a seasoned career therapist can yield. Offering sophisticated and nuanced distinctions between complex trauma and PTSD, she shows how treatment is necessarily contextual and tailored to the unique clinical and personality dynamics of the sufferer that is thoroughly client specific within the therapeutic dyad. She dispenses with simplistic and supercilious attitudes that embarrassingly boast a uniform or manualized treatment to trauma, instead carefully taking into consideration polysymptomatic, neurobiological, and socialcultural differences that inform the interpersonal, emotional, and safety milieu from the beginning of treatment to stabilization, the working-through process, and then onto successful recovery. This is a must-read book for those in training and senior clinicians alike." --Jon Mills, PsyD, PhD, ABPP, Faculty, Postgraduate Programs in Psychoanalysis & Psychotherapy, Adelphi University, NY; author of Treating Attachment Pathology"Dr. Greenberg has written an invaluable book on treating complex trauma. She delves into multiple approaches, assessing what techniques the client can tolerate at a given therapeutic stage. She covers how to maintain consistency and connection through a flexible approach and avoid pitfalls. This is a must read for clinicians wishing to treat clients with complex PTSD." --Louann Brizendine, MD, Clinical Professor UCSF; author of The Female BrainTrade Review“The merits of this book are many, the most important being to make a serious and pervasive disorder such as complex trauma more understandable and therefore more treatable, providing clinicians with a wide framework of concepts and therapeutic tools, and a sustained example of how to build one’s own personal toolbox for these often difficult, long and challenging psychotherapies.” (Monica Luci, Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy, May 28, 2021)Table of ContentsChapter One The Need for Utilizing Multiple Approaches for Complex PTSD: No Theory Has It All Introduction: Complex Clients Need Multiple Approaches What is Trauma and Who Gets to Define It?

Springer Nature Switzerland AG Developing Anti-Racist Practices in the Helping
Book SynopsisThis book provides an interdisciplinary structure to critique existing approaches that have failed to eradicate systemic inequalities across helping professions. This timely contribution offers helping professionals sought after resources that many are clamoring for to improve their practice, their pedagogical stance, and their knowledge as it relates to antiracism and antiracist approaches. This collection of chapters that cover antiracist research, theory and practice approaches is in direct response to Kendi’s (2019) call to action to examine and revise institutional policies and practices to become antiracist. Collectively this book advances existing research and resources by providing interdisciplinary strategies for helping professionals to engage in antiracism through critical evaluation of research, practice, and policies. Doing so empowers helping professionals across disciplines to employ antiracist strategies that deconstruct and dismantle racism embedded within the foundational origins, professional standards, and disciplinary practices of helping professions while simultaneously merging research, practice, and advocacy that employs antiracist practices.Table of Contents1.

Springer Psychological Health Effects of Musical
Book SynopsisThis book is about links between music and health. It focuses on music and public health, and, in particular, the potentially positive and negative effects of listening to and making music on the health of the general population. The book starts out by discussing the protection music offers against adverse effects of stress. It then discusses social aspects of music production and listening and examines religious music within the framework of social functioning. It offers insight into the physiological and psychological effects of music listening, the biological effects of singing, and the use of music in therapeutic situations and the rearing of children. The book concludes by discussing the significance of music for musicians and their health. Although it may seem that music has only good health effects, and therefore all professional musicians should be healthy, not all music effects are positive. The book describes situations in which music has negative health effects and makes clear that there is a pronounced difference between living with music for joy and to earn one´s living from making music. In the latter situation, performance anxiety may become a factor that affects health adversely.Trade Review“He discusses a range of the research-based evidence of the effects of musical participation upon health, including some of his own studies. … This discussion of the myriad benefits of music during human development, and its contribution to our holistic wellbeing and social integration, provides a wealth of evidence which may be useful in several practical contexts … . This book is a useful resource for anyone with an interest in music and wellbeing.” (Michael Bonshor, Arts Health Early Career Research Network Blog, artshealthecrn.com, August, 2018)Table of ContentsChapter 1: Introduction.- Chapter 2: Stress and Music.- Chapter 3: Music in Social Cohesion.- Chapter 4: Music in Religion.- Chapter 5: Physiological Aspects of Listening to Music.- Chapter 6: Music in Treatment.- Chapter 7: What Happens in the Body during Singing?

Health psychologists pursue ambitious goals, including: the promotion and maintenance of health; the prevention and management of illness; the improvement of healthcare systems; and the formulation of rational health policies. And they seek to understand dizzyingly difficult questions, such as: how do people adapt to chronic illness? What factors influence healthy eating? How is stress linked to heart disease? And, why do so many patients ignore medical advice and prescriptions?As research in and around health psychology burgeons as never before, this new four-volume collection from Routledgeâs acclaimed Critical Concepts in Psychology series meets the need for an authoritative reference work to make sense of a rapidly growing and ever more complex corpus of literature. Edited by two leading scholars, the collection gathers foundational and canonical work, together with innovative and cutting-edge applications and interventions.With a full index, together with a comprehensive introduction, newly written by the editors, which places the collected material in its historical and intellectual context, Health Psychology will be particularly useful as a one-stop database allowing scattered and often fugitive material to be easily located. It will also be welcomed as a crucial tool permitting rapid access to less familiarâand sometimes overlookedâtexts. For researchers and advanced students, it is a vital one-stop research and reference resource.

Taylor & Francis Inc Communication Perspectives on HIVAIDS for the
Book SynopsisReflecting the current state of research into the communication aspects of HIV/AIDS, this volume explores AIDS-related communication scholarship, moving forward from the 1992 publication AIDS: A Communication Perspective.Editors Timothy Edgar, Seth M. Noar, and Vicki S. Freimuth have developed this up-to-date collection to focus on todayâs key communication issues in the HIV/AIDS epidemic. Chapters herein examine the interplay of the messages individuals receive about AIDS at the public level as well as the messages exchanged between individuals at the interpersonal level. Acknowledging how the face of HIV/AIDS has changed since 1992, the volume promotes the perspective that an understanding of effective communication through both mediated and interpersonal channels is essential to winning the continued battle against AIDS.Issues addressed here include: Social stigma associated with the disease, social support and those living with HIV/AIDS, and the current state of HIV testing Parentâchild discussions surrounding HIV/AIDS and safer sexual behavior, and cultural sensitivity relating to developing HIV prevention and sex education programs The effectiveness of health campaigns to impact attitudes, norms, and behavior, as well as the current state of entertainment education and its ability to contribute to HIV prevention News media coverage of HIV/AIDS and the impact of the agenda-setting function on public opinion and policy making Health literacy and its importance to the health and well-being of those undergoing HIV treatment. The role of technological innovations, most notably the Internet, used for both prevention interventions as well as risky behavior The volume also includes exemplars that showcase the diversity of approaches to health communication used to combat the HIV/AIDS epidemic. These cases include interpersonal and mass communication mediums; traditional along with new media and technology; research by academics and practitioners; individual as well as community-based approaches; work based in the United States and internationally; and campaigns directed at at-risk, HIV- positive, as well as general populations. With new topics, new contributors, and a broadened scope, this book goes beyond a revision of the 1992 volume to reflect the current state of communication research on HIV/AIDS across key contexts. It is designed for academics, researchers, practitioners, and students in health communication, health psychology, and other areas of AIDS research. As a unique examination of communication research, it makes an indelible contribution to the growing knowledge base of communication approaches to combating HIV/AIDS.Table of ContentsContents: Preface.

The effects of obesity--and of weight loss--on physical and psychological well-being are reviewed, as are strategies for helping patients maintain their weight loss. New to This Edition *Many new authors and topics; extensively revised and expanded with over 15 years of research and clinical advances, including breakthroughs in understanding the biological regTrade Review"Wadden and Bray have done a remarkable job. Chapter authors provide the 'big picture' on each topic as well as figures and tables that allow interested readers to drill down on the specific information they need. A great deal of recent treatment data is included in chapters that are well designed to help providers interested in providing all treatment options for their patients. The chapter on surgical treatment has some of the best drawings showing the different types of bariatric surgery procedures that I have seen. In addition, I particularly like the new section on behavioral, environmental, and psychosocial contributors to obesity. This is the kind of book you will want to have at hand when any question arises about the causes and treatment of obesity. It will be extremely useful to trainees in obesity medicine; many of the chapters will make excellent reading assignments."--Michael D. Jensen, MD, Thomas J. Watson, Jr. Professor in Honor of Dr. Robert L. Frye, Mayo Clinic College of Medicine "Since so much has changed in our understanding of obesity and its treatment in adults and children in the past 15 years, this second edition comes at the perfect time. The book provides a comprehensive resource, with many more chapters than the first edition. Each chapter is written by a leading authority in the field and addresses an important issue in the etiology, consequences, and treatment of this disease. This will certainly be the go-to book on obesity for researchers, clinicians, and students."--Rena R. Wing, PhD, Department of Psychiatry and Human Behavior, Brown University Medical School; Director, Weight Control and Diabetes Research Center, The Miriam Hospital "This second edition offers a comprehensive, up-to-date summary of the state of the art regarding all aspects of obesity, including its prevalence, etiology, environmental and psychosocial contributors, manifestations, consequences, and treatment in a variety of settings. In addition, the volume reviews research relevant to public policy, organization of obesity care, and pediatric and adolescent populations. A definitive reference from recognized authorities."--Bruce M. Wolfe, MD, FACS, FASMBS, Professor of Surgery and Vice Chair of Research, Division of Bariatric Surgery, Oregon Health and Science University "The editors, pioneers in the field, have recruited the world’s leading experts. The book contains an incredible wealth of knowledge, providing the broadest and most authoritative coverage in the field. It provides new and updated information on diverse topics including epidemiology, etiology, body weight regulation, energy metabolism, genetic influences, the microbiome in obesity, recently approved medications, surgical approaches, and behavioral interventions. The latest in insurance coverage, childhood obesity, and primary prevention is extensively reviewed. This is the indispensable resource for all researchers and clinicians involved in the management of obesity, and will remain the go-to source for years to come. It’s a terrific handbook and really all you need."--John P. Foreyt, PhD, Professor, Department of Medicine, Baylor College of Medicine "The second edition of this handbook fully encompasses the enormous strides that have been made in the etiology, genetics, assessment, and treatment of this disease since the first edition was published. Written by leaders in clinical practice and research, chapters cover emerging topics including the role of the gut microbiome in energy balance, the hypothalamus as the central control of body weight regulation, and new paradigms in treatment. Topics are thoroughly condensed into a readable, useful format. This second edition will be a staple for any graduate course in obesity medicine or obesity research. It will be in demand among physicians and surgeons at any level--medical students to faculty. Reading this book, I was excited to realize what knowledge we have gained over the last 15 years pertaining to obesity medicine and surgery, psychological approaches, the obesity epidemic, and energy regulation."--Caroline M.

Guilford Publications Mindful Movement in Psychotherapy
Book SynopsisMany mental health clinicians--even those well acquainted with mindfulness--still view physical, body-oriented techniques as outside their scope of practice. In this accessible book, clinical psychologist, exercise physiologist, and yoga and mindfulness teacher Paul Salmon gives therapists of any orientation the tools to use mindful movement with clients. Salmon shows how simple practices like breathing, walking, and yoga-like stretches can help clients center their attention in the present moment with curiosity and self-acceptance. He summarizes research on the benefits of movement for specific mental and physical health conditions and provides vivid case examples and scripts. Purchasers get access to a companion website where they can download audio recordings of 29 guided practices.Trade Review"Finally, a book that elevates movement and the body as vital foci for the training of mindfulness. Expert guidance is presented in an accessible style. Salmon illustrates the transdiagnostic utility of mindful movement and persuasively invites the therapist to incorporate these practices into the full spectrum of clinical work."--Zindel V. Segal, PhD, Departments of Psychology and Psychiatry, University of Toronto–Scarborough, Canada “Many clinicians mistakenly believe that mindfulness is about sitting still. A psychologist, exercise physiologist, and yoga teacher, Salmon skillfully shows--drawing on solid research and a plethora of practices--that attention to the body is an accessible and safe way to practice mindful awareness. This is an excellent resource for therapists who want to share mindful movement with their clients in order to enhance treatment and promote health.”--Susan M. Pollak, MTS, EdD, Cofounder, Center for Mindfulness and Compassion, Harvard Medical School/Cambridge Health Alliance "A 'must read' for any mental health professional interested in taking a holistic approach to wellness. This work pulls together relevant research from clinical psychology, medicine, and the exercise sciences to highlight the overwhelming evidence for the benefits of getting our bodies back in motion. Mindful Movement in Psychotherapy includes an eloquent mindfulness-based rationale for how and why to get clients curious about their innate capacity to move. A range of concrete examples--from session excerpts to suggestions on how to frame interventions to easy-to-follow in vivo exercises--will allow any clinician to immediately begin harnessing the power of movement to help clients."--Tim Pineau, PhD, Cofounder, MSPE Institute (Mindful Sport Performance Enhancement), Washington, DC "Experienced teachers and practitioners know that mindfulness has more to do with the body than it does with our conventional ideas of our 'minds.' This wonderful book helps psychotherapists take mindfulness beyond the artificial limits of a therapy setting, to help clients practice living mindfully as fully embodied and engaged human beings. This isn’t just a book to read--it is a book to live."--Dennis Tirch, PhD, Founding Director, The Center for Compassion Focused Therapy, New York City "A 'must read' for any health professional incorporating mindfulness into treatment, this book offers a fresh take on the topic. Salmon offers practitioners numerous creative exercises--therapeutic invitations to move--that can be meaningfully used to help treat common problems, such as stress and anxiety, as well as more complex issues, such as addiction and eating disorders.”--Diane R. Gehart, PhD, LMFT, Marriage and Family Therapy Program, California State University, Northridge "As both a scholar of mindfulness in sport and a practitioner with elite athletes, I have been waiting for a book like this. One of the pedagogical challenges of working with athletes is to transform traditional mindfulness into the sport context.

Guilford Publications Validity Assessment in Clinical
Book SynopsisPractical and comprehensive, this is the first book to focus on noncredible performance in clinical contexts. Experts in the field discuss the varied causes of invalidity, describe how to efficiently incorporate validity tests into clinical evaluations, and provide direction on how to proceed when noncredible responding is detected. Thoughtful, ethical guidance is given for offering patient feedback and writing effective reports. Population-specific chapters cover validity assessment with military personnel; children; and individuals with dementia, psychiatric disorders, mild traumatic brain injury, academic disability, and other concerns. The concluding chapter describes how to appropriately engage in legal proceedings if a clinical case becomes forensic. Case examples and sample reports enhance the book's utility.Trade Review"To say that this book fills a void in clinical neuropsychology would be an understatement. The reader comes away with an appreciation of the importance of validity assessment across all settings in which clinical neuropsychologists work. I am hard pressed to think of any context or patient group that is not addressed. Schroeder and Martin are leaders in validity assessment in clinical settings, and the chapter authors include many of the best-known scientists and practitioners in this area."--Robert L. Heilbronner, PhD, ABPP-CN, Chicago Neuropsychology Group; Feinberg School of Medicine, Northwestern University "This thoughtful and thorough review of the complexities of validity assessment is a welcome addition to the clinical neuropsychologist’s library. For anyone who works with patients, this text comprehensively examines issues that until now have received far more attention in the forensic arena. The topics--ranging from ethical considerations to communicating about feigning verbally and in written reports--will be tremendously helpful to practitioners as they navigate challenging and nuanced situations. In my classes, I would use the book to help prepare students for real-world clinical practice."--Douglas Whiteside, PhD, ABPP-CN, Department of Rehabilitation Medicine, University of Minnesota Medical School "Most books on validity assessment focus on the forensic side, and on diagnoses that are likely to result in litigation and/or compensation seeking. But not all forensic concepts can be easily applied to clinical settings. This volume provides fresh perspectives and up-to-date data that all clinicians can benefit from. Readers will find detailed information on how to explain performance validity test failure, provide feedback, and write reports, while maintaining clinical care. Ethical and cultural considerations, statistics, test selection, and use of performance validity tests with specific populations are covered."--Dominic A.

And with these stressors come remedies offered by pundits of varying qualification. For years, this handbook, edited by highly respected scholar-clinicians, has been a welcome resource. It provides searching, thoughtful analyses of the complexities of managing stress, integrating the scientific literature with findings from front-line clinicians. The fourth edition doesn't disappoint--Lehrer and Woolfolk have once again produced an inestimably valuable work for professionals and students."--Gerald C. Davison, PhD, Department of Psychology, University of Southern California "Stress is a ubiquitous human experience, with sources and consequences that are highly varied. In this timely fourth edition of a classic, Lehrer and Woolfolk gather the field’s top researchers to unpack both the theory and the facts underlying stress. Chapters highlight the physiological, psychological, and social pathways to outcomes ranging from harm to resilience, and review multiple approaches to the amelioration of stress, from psychopharmacology to meditative practices. This is a rich resource for both researchers and clinicians, and a comprehensive orienting text for advanced students in this area."--Richard M. Ryan, PhD, Institute for Positive Psychology and Education, Australian Catholic University; Professor Emeritus, University of Rochester "An encyclopedic and foundational reference. Lehrer and Woolfolk are major figures who have led the field of stress management for four decades, and who have assembled a remarkably gifted team of expert authors. This fourth edition greatly updates the scientific research, expands the list of authors, and sharpens the focus of many chapters. This book is a 'must read' for serious practitioners in stress management, and belongs on the easiest-to-reach shelf of every practitioner and researcher in the broader field of psychophysiology."--Donald Moss, PhD, Dean, College of Integrative Medicine and Health Sciences, Saybrook University "Edited by two of the most esteemed leaders in stress management, the fourth edition of this classic work contains insightful chapters bridging the gap between basic research and clinical applications. The volume reviews the conceptual basis for evidence-based interventions, physiological systems in the stress process, treatment of different populations, and a range of specific stress management methods.

Guilford Publications Stress Health and Behavior
Book SynopsisExposure to stressful life experiences can disrupt key regulatory systems in the body and contribute to a variety of negative health outcomes. This authoritative text takes a biopsychosocial approach to understanding the role of stress in alcohol use disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder, depression, cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, cancer, and other chronic diseases. It presents cutting-edge knowledge about how stressors are conceptualized and measured; connections to disease processes; systemic racism as a significant, ongoing stressor for people of color; and factors that promote resilience. For each of the disorders discussed, proven and promising stress-targeted clinical interventions are reviewed. Student-friendly features include an end-of-book glossary and an extensive bibliography to facilitate in-depth study of selected topics of interest.Trade Review"McCarty provides a tour-de-force synthesis of the massive literature on the biopsychological bases of a range of debilitating and life-threatening diseases. His thorough telling embraces the history of major discoveries and leaves us with a clear picture of the status quo. This is the book clinicians need as they conceive of innovative and timely treatments, and it is an excellent primary text for a graduate course in Health Psychology or Psychosomatic Disorders."--Wolfgang Linden, PhD, Dipl-Psych, Department of Psychology, University of British Columbia, Canada "Stress is a ubiquitous element of modern life. This volume provides a comprehensive view of the history and current conceptualizations of stress, as well as connections to both physical disease and psychological and behavioral challenges. Chapters cover essential topics in stress research and interventions, with accessible language and informative tables and illustrations. This is a great resource in a complex area, and one that will likely become a standard reference and text."--Richard M. Ryan, PhD, Institute for Positive Psychology and Education, Australian Catholic University; Distinguished Professor, Ewha Womans University, South Korea "This book is a masterful achievement. It examines the intricate relationships that exist between stress, health, and behavior, beginning with one of the best historical reviews of the conceptualization of health and disease that I have seen, and following with comprehensive accounts of measurement approaches and specific disease processes. The chapter on the impact of racism as an acute and chronic stressor is particularly important. This book should be on the shelf of every clinical health psychologist and consultation-liaison psychiatrist. It is an outstanding text for advanced undergraduate courses in stress and health and health psychology, and for graduate courses in health psychology and behavioral medicine."--Alan L. Peterson, PhD, ABPP, Professor and Chief, Division of Behavioral Medicine, The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio-This book is well written and adaptable to fit the needs of a wide audience. It is as suitable for an undergraduate course as it is for individuals seeking to improve their understanding of stress-related disorders….*****--Doody's Review Service, 09/08/2023Table of ContentsPreface 1.

Guilford Publications Cognitive-Behavioral Treatment of Irritable Bowel
Book SynopsisIrritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is the most common functional gastrointestinal disorder, causing pain, discomfort, and embarrassment to millions. While medically based treatments have demonstrated only limited effectiveness, recent research strongly supports the role of psychosocial factors in both symptom expression and symptom control. This book presents a brief cognitive-behavioral treatment approach that is suitable for use with individuals or groups. Delineating a clear medical rationale, the authors help clinicians both to reduce the stigma associated with IBS and to overcome client resistance to psychological treatment. Effective techniques are outlined for helping clients manage anxiety, anger, and shame; enhance their self-efficacy and stress management skills; and alleviate gastrointestinal distress. Session-by-session guidelines are illuminated by such useful features as sample therapist-client dialogues, lists of important points to cover, troubleshooting tips, and examples of recommended handouts and forms. Also covered in depth are treatment issues specific to women. Trade ReviewThis groundbreaking volume integrates the latest scientific and clinical information about a disorder that has been too long ignored in the literature. Varied and interesting chapters cover little-known research as well as novel CBT applications. I particularly appreciated the authors' gender-related analysis, as well as the specific applied exercises, forms, and suggestions for interrupting the cycle of pain and psychological distress. Researchers, students, teachers, and clinicians from both medical and applied social science disciplines will find a wealth of useful information in this excellent volume. I welcome and applaud this outstanding contribution. --Judith Worell, PhD, University of KentuckyThis book is unique for two reasons. First, it explains for the first time how gender socialization and abuse can contribute to the development of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), which affects women far more than men, and shows how to incorporate gender issues into treatment. Second, the authors are able to draw upon their experience conducting two large-scale controlled trials of cognitive-behavioral therapy for IBS to provide concrete, practical guidelines for therapists. This book will be invaluable to clinicians and should become a required text for training clinical psychologists and psychiatrists in the management of IBS and other functional somatic complaints. --William E. Whitehead, PhD, Co-Director, University of North Carolina Center for Gastrointestinal Functional and Motility DisordersThis book effectively presents an empirically supported treatment--in both individual and group formats--for a surprisingly common stress-related somatic problem. Irritable Bowel Syndrome has heretofore received too little attention, owing to the shame, gender bias, and minimization processes that the authors describe and combat so well. This text will be highly useful for advanced graduate students, as well as seasoned researchers and clinicians in the often overlapping fields of cognitive-behavioral therapy and behavioral medicine. --Cory F. Newman, PhD, ABPP, Clinical Director, Center for Cognitive Therapy, University of PennsylvaniaAs the field of medicine moves toward a more integrated, biopsychosocial understanding of illness and disease and toward a relationship-centered plan of care, persons with IBS and other functional somatic syndromes are likely to benefit. This book paves the way toward that understanding and also provides the means to accomplish that goal. --From the Foreword by Douglas A.
