Oxford University Press Inc The Finding Solid Ground Program Workbook
Book SynopsisFor those who have experienced trauma, life may sometimes feel hopeless, full of feeling too much or too little, and the world can feel like a terrifying and dangerous place. This can be especially true for those hurt by people they loved, trusted, or relied on. To escape the pain, many trauma survivors disconnect from themselves and the world, including in ways that are risky or unsafe. The good news is that survivors can heal, recover from trauma, and grow. The Finding Solid Ground Program Workbook is an invaluable guide through this important, meaningful work, providing a step-by-step approach at a pace designed to feel safe. In this workbook, which can be used independently or in the context of psychotherapy, expert authors guide readers step by step along the path of healing from trauma, and offer specific exercises to practice daily that will help survivors feel safer and develop a grounded, worthy sense of self. This book includes the Information Sheets and Exercises that are the foundation for the Finding Solid Ground program; the companion book for therapists, Finding Solid Ground: Overcoming Obstacles in Trauma Treatment provides the theoretical, clinical, and research rationale for the program. Therapists will find that this program breaks recovery into practical and manageable steps that can be immediately implemented. Participation in the Finding Solid Ground program in the TOP DD Network study was linked with improved ability to manage emotions in healthy ways and reduced dissociation, posttraumatic stress symptoms, and self-injury.Trade ReviewFinding Solid Ground is the most helpful book available on the treatment of clinical dissociation. Based on an extended clinical research study, this guide is highly recommended for those who seek concrete, evidence-based guidance in this area. Equally recommended is the associated workbook, which provides detailed and compassionate information and exercises for clients struggling with dissociate challenges. * John Briere, PhD, Professor Emeritus of Psychiatry, Keck School of Medicine, University of Southern California, author, Treating risky and compulsive behavior in trauma survivors. NY: Guilford (2019). *Finding Solid Ground is an enormous contribution to the field of trauma: the first book on trauma and dissociation written by authors who are both scholars and clinicians. They build a solid ground of research evidence to support an understanding of dissociation combined with practical applications that can be easily integrated into psychotherapy or serve as a stand-alone treatment. Well done! * Janina Fisher, Ph.D, author of Healing the Fragmented Selves of Trauma Survivors, Transforming the Living Legacy of Trauma, and The Living Legacy Flip Chart. *Finding Solid Ground, provides invaluable resources on the treatment of dissociative trauma-related disorders. The authors are educators par excellence who have used their expertise as researchers and clinicians to produce a highly readable overview of dissociation along with treatment guidelines and exercises. Their innovative TOP DD studies offer empirical support for their approach. A major contribution! * Christine A.

Oxford University Press Inc Transdiagnostic LgbtqAffirmative
Book SynopsisLGBTQ individuals seek therapy at higher rates than the general population, but the mental health profession has historically lacked evidence-based guidance for supporting the unique presenting concerns of LGBTQ clients. This book changes that by presenting how-to guidance for delivering cognitive-behavioral therapy that directly responds to the distinct stressors facing LGBTQ individuals. LGBTQ-affirmative Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy is the first mental health treatment designed by and for LGBTQ individuals that has been tested in several randomized controlled trials with diverse segments of the LGBTQ community. Results of these trials show that this transdiagnostic treatment is associated with reductions in depression, anxiety, substance use problems, and psychological distress, making it suitable for a broad range of presenting concerns. LGBTQ-affirmative Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy: Therapist Guide teaches the principles and techniques that mental health practitioners can use to

Jessica Kingsley Publishers Supporting Your Grieving Client: A Guide for
Book SynopsisFor most people, grief is an inevitable part of life and if you're a wellness practitioner, then the likelihood is that you will at some point work with a bereaved client. This may initially seem like a heavy responsibility and so this guide aims to help you feel prepared and confident in how you support your client. It will explain how loss and grief can place tremendous strain on the body and how it may manifest physically, mentally, and spiritually, whilst equipping you with the tools and resources you need to support your grieving client.Vanessa May draws from over 16 years' worth of experience as a registered nutritional therapist, wellbeing coach, and trauma-informed holistic grief coach. As a result, she is able to cover nutritional medicine support whilst also educating readers on grief models and theories versus the actual reality of grief through her own experiences of traumatic loss and various case studies.This is an invaluable book for all types of wellness practitioners and therapists who would like to understand how to approach and make space for their clients' bereavement.Trade ReviewVanessa's courageous survival of devastating personal bereavement combines with extensive professional experience to make this a deeply insightful guide into working sensitively and confidently with clients affected by trauma and the complexity of loss or unprocessed grief. I believe this is the essential 'go to' handbook for every therapist, wellness coach or health professional. This is now required reading for our wellbeing coaching students. -- Elaine Wilkins, founder of Chrysalis Effect Health and author of The Trauma Informed Wellbeing Coaching Accreditation for Health Professionals.I would highly recommend Vanessa May's book to any nutritional therapist, or indeed any health professional, to give them an understanding of the devastating impact that grief can have on an individual's health. If you are working with a client who is stricken with grief, unless their emotional needs are heard and supported, you may well find that they don't respond to your advice as you might hope or expect and that their grief dramatically hinders any improvements in their health, mental and physical, despite your best efforts. This book gives invaluable advice and insight on how to work sympathetically with grieving clients in order to support their individual health needs, both mental and physical. -- Kate Alexander, BANT Registered Nutritionist, BANT Membership ManagerGrief is messy and there's a lot of it about. Grief can contribute to chronic disease - even kill, yet most practitioners are unaware of its consequences. Vanessa May ably details the key nutritional support for grieving clients, while providing an excellent blueprint for understanding grief's impact on the gut and nervous system. A well-written, "easy" read, despite its subject, and a vital missing link in practitioner education. -- Simon Martin, editor of IHCAN magazineTable of ContentsContentsIntroductionChapter 1Types of griefChapter 2The skills you most needChapter 3Physical manifestations of grief Chapter 4Mental health, trauma and PTSDChapter 5Mind, body and spiritChapter 6Case studiesChapter 7PlatitudesChapter 8Grief models and theories versus the reality of griefChapter 9Nutritional medicine supportChapter 10Recommendations for your grieving clientAfterwordReferencesAppendixAbout the authorAcknowledgements

Bohn Stafleu van Loghum Schemagerichte therapie: Handboek voor
Book SynopsisDit boek is het eerste uitgebreide werk voor clinici die schemagerichte therapie in hun praktijk willen toepassen. Het conceptuele model van de therapie wordt op uiterst heldere wijze beschreven. Vervolgens worden er behandelprotocollen gegeven. Het geheel wordt geïllustreerd aan de hand van praktijkvoorbeelden en therapiefragmenten. De auteurs bespreken in deze uitgave niet alleen de behandeling van patiënten met as–I–stoornissen, maar er worden ook recent ontwikkelde protocollen gegeven voor de behandeling van borderline–patiënten en narcistische patiënten.Wanneer disfunctionele denk– en gedragspatronen hardnekkig zijn, liggen er vaak zogeheten "schema"s" aan ten grondslag. Dit zijn belangrijke overtuigingen en gevoelens die het individu aanneemt zonder zich daarover vragen te stellen. Schema"s ontwikkelen zich in de kindertijd en breiden zich daarna uit. Schema"s houden zichzelf in stand en bieden sterke weerstand tegen verandering. Traditionele therapieën blijken dan ook doorgaans te beperkt te zijn om die schema"s omver te werpen.Schemagerichte therapie is een geïntegreerde therapeutische benadering waarin elementen uit cognitieve, gedragstherapeutische en psychodynamische modellen, hechtingsmodellen en gestaltmodellen met elkaar worden gecombineerd. Deze therapie is erop gericht schema"s bij de patiënt te onderkennen en te doorbreken. Het is een effectieve behandeling voor een breed scala van klinische problemen, zelfs bij patiënten die immuun voor behandeling lijken. Met dit boek, geschreven door onder anderen de grondlegger van de schemagerichte therapie, Jeffrey Young, beschikken therapeuten eindelijk over een allesomvattende handleiding voor de behandeling van die bijzonder lastige patiënten met chronische, langdurige schema's en patronen.Table of ContentsSchemagerichte therapie: conceptueel model.- Schema’s: diagnostiek en voorlichting.- Cognitieve strategieën.- Experiëntiële strategieën.- Gedragspatronen doorbreken.- De therapeutische relatie.- Uitvoerige behandelstrategieën voor schema's.- Werken met schemamodi.- Schemagerichte therapie voor de borderline persoonlijkheidsstoornis.- Schemagerichte therapie voor de narcistische persoonlijkheidsstoornis.

Oxford University Press Inc Counseling Persons with Parkinsons Disease
Book SynopsisWhat is it like to live with a chronic illness? How can counselors support those living with one? Allan Hugh Cole Jr. offers answers to these two questions and so many more in Counseling Persons with Parkinson''s Disease. In ten succinct chapters, Cole offers a glimpse into life with Parkinson''s and presents an insightful approach to counseling someone living with a chronic illness. Cole was diagnosed with Parkinson''s Disease in 2016, and--though it hardly happened overnight--he has since discovered a new passion and drive for life. A teacher of social workers and counselors for many years, Cole has unique insight into chronic illness and the care required to help someone diagnosed with one. He delves into the importance of accepting a chronic illness and how this can create an opportunity for personal transformation, newfound meaning, and rejuvenated purpose. In addition to emphasizing the importance of self-reflection, he also offers evidence-based approaches to counseling. Cole''s approaches to counseling draw on task-centered social work practice. Throughout the book, he engages with five purposeful actions tied to principles of constructivism, Aristotelian thought, American pragmatism, and theories of interpretation (hermeneutics). At once informative, realistic, humorous, and hopeful, this is a thoughtful guide for clinicians who give counsel, educators who teach counseling, people supporting someone else, and anyone living with a chronic illness.Trade ReviewThis book provides a thoughtful balance between personal narrative and clinical guidance on how to help someone through the losses associated with Parkinson's disease. * T. A. Babb, CHOICE *This book provides a comprehensive introduction to Parkinson's disease (PD) and is a detailed manual for Loss-Based Counseling (LBC) for working with persons with Parkinson's disease (PwP). [It] also includes powerful, inspiring, and extremely informative first-person accounts of Dr. Cole's personal journey following his diagnosis of young-onset (i.e., <50 years of age) PD in late 2016. The book alternates between chapters that provide these personal accounts and chapters that provide the foundations and details of LBC. Dr. Cole's unique, dual perspectives as a social work educator and as a PwP make this book exceptionally well-suited for preparing social work professionals to assist people with PD or other chronic and progressive illness as they cope with a series of life-altering losses. * Namkee G. Choi, Steve Hicks School of Social Work University of Texas at Austin, Journal of Gerontological Social Work *In this unique and enlightening book, Professor Allan Cole tells his story of life with young-onset Parkinson's disease while guiding counselors on how best to understand, support, and empower persons living with this illness. His adept knowledge of both Parkinson's and counseling approaches, paired with his honesty, vulnerability, strength, and hope, models work in the health humanities at its best. I highly recommend this book to physicians, counselors, persons living with Parkinson's, and to those who offer them support and care. * Bastiaan R. Bloem, M.D., Ph.D., Medical Director, Department of Neurology at Radbound University Medical Center, Nijmegen, Netherlands *Inspired by decades of existential searching and emotional learning, Allan Cole turns inward as he reflects on the meaning of a new diagnosis for him, Parkinson's disease, and what it might mean for others as well. This book is as personal as it is informative. More than a pathography, readers will learn the latest information on this disease as well as effective strategies for counseling people with it. It is insightful, heart-breaking, authentic, and hopeful. * Nathan Carlin, Ph.D, Samuel Karff Chair and Professor at McGovern Medical School in Houston, Texas *Dr. Allan Cole has written a poignant first-person account of living with Parkinson's full of intimacy and insight. His personal story and professional wisdom as a social worker combine to offer the reader an unprecedented guide through the life of a person with Parkinson's (PwP). This book should be essential reading for all counselors and caregivers wishing to support PwP. The personal narrative is inspirational and pulls you directly into the lived experience of a young man facing a new diagnosis and trying to create meaning for himself and his family. Cole then introduces us to a new short-term counseling approach, which is both evidence-based and deeply personal. This book is hard to put down, beautifully written and full of vulnerability, humor, and wisdom. I will be recommending this book to all of my staff and students. * Barbara L. Jones, PhD, MSW, FNAP, Chair, Department of Health Social Work, Dell Medical School, The University of Texas at Austin *A distinct, practical, and philosophically sound approach to counseling those with Parkinson's disease. As a seasoned teacher of counselors who also lives with Parkinson's, Allan Cole knows firsthand of what he writes. Equal parts memoir and professional resource, his authenticity is refreshing; his insights, profound; his writing, elegant. An important book for clinicians who provide counsel and for educators who teach counseling. * Harold G. Koenig, M.D., Professor of Psychiatry at Duke University School of Medicine *Parkinson's disease is the fastest growing neurological illness in the world. This thoughtfully written, must-read book effectively provides a framework for those that may be in a position to counsel people impacted by living with Parkinson's or any chronic, progressive illness. Allan Cole is able to personalize the theory being taught in a way that is extremely engaging, touching, and relevant. By sharing his personal experiences in such an honest, candid way, he gives all of us insights into the lived experience and emotional toll this disease takes, as well as the perseverance and the hope we need for the future. * Soania Mathur, M.D., Co-Chair, Patient Council, The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research *Counseling Persons with Parkinson's Disease is a book that is a necessary addition to one's professional library. It is also a volume that patients can read, reflect upon, underline, and go back to when they feel a bit disoriented by what they are going through. As I relaxed with, and reflected upon, its content and spirit I thought to myself: This is what sound psychosocial information should be all about—simple, heart-felt, informative, and prepared in order to make life better for those in pain. * Robert J.

Oxford University Press Dignity Therapy
Trade ReviewThis is truly a remarkable book - it simultaneously brings together the best we know of the science of palliative care with the essence and best of compassionate care. * Jimmie C. Holland, Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Centre *For all health professionals who find themselves struggling to help patients face the complex process of dying, this book is both a detailed roadmap and an extraordinary guide that dispels the myth that 'there is nothing else they can do.' Most importantly, the book sets a high standard for creating an environment that enables patients' exploration of personhood and suffering and enhances their dignity in the final days of their lives. * Kathleen M.

Cherny, Shaare Zedek Medical Centre, Israel *In this elegant book, Harvey Chochinov shows how the interrelatedness of one human being with another affects an individual's intrinsic sense of dignity, and he examines the implications of this on the care environment. Every palliative care service will find this book enriching and will look with refreshed eyes on the work of providing care to others. * Baroness Ilora Finlay of Llandaff, Cardiff University, and Member, House of Lords, UK *[It] offers unique insight into the process of psychological dying and the opportunity for growth. I recommend it to anyone who is working in the helping professions and has the unique opportunity to be present as individuals create their own last chapter. * J. Donald Schumacher, National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization *This book is valuable to clinicians from all settings and fields, those involved in medical and nursing education, and those undertaking research to improve patient and family experience and care. * Irene J. Higginson, King's College, London *Dr. Chochinov's Dignity Therapy provides a practical way to implement one of the essential elements of any healthcare system and any relationship between a clinician or caregiver and patient who is seriously ill honouring the dignity of each and every individual. His book provides practical, evidence-based, yet sacred, interventions that allow for healing in the midst of suffering. * Christina M. Puchalski, The George Washington University School of Medicine and Health Sciences *Whether you are a professional who, like me, works in palliative care or in another setting, I recommend Chochinov's book as one to put on your reading list for the coming year. sDignity Therapy is an engaging read distinguished by its depth of insight and vibrant perspective. sDignity Therapy: Final Words for Final Days is a comprehensive, well-written, and engaging book, which provides a clear background and implementation guide for Dignity Therapy. It would probably be most useful for palliative care and hospice providers and for those of us in palliative care who are in a position to either implement or advocate for the implementation of a Dignity Therapy program. * Mercedes Pacheco, Journal of Palliative Medicine *What I like about it particularly is that it presents a subtle and powerful argument against euthanasia without in any way being overtly religious. * Francis Phillips, Catholic Herald d *Table of ContentsChapter 1: Dignity and the End of Life ; Why Study Dignity? ; Dignity and Empirical Research ; The Model of Dignity in the Terminally Ill ; Illness-Related Concerns ; - Level of Independence ; - Symptom Distress ; Dignity-Conserving Repertoire ; - Dignity-Conserving Perspectives ; - Dignity-Conserving Practices ; Social Dignity Inventory ; - Privacy Boundaries ; - Social Support ; - Care Tenor ; - Burden to Others ; - Aftermath Concerns ; References ; Chapter 2: Moving Dignity into Care ; How the Dignity Model Informs Dignity Therapy ; - Form ; - Tone ; - Content ; Dignity Therapy Revealed ; The First Clinical Trial is Published ; What about Families? ; Gold Standard Evidence ; Time to Move On ; References ; Chapter 3: Introducing Dignity Therapy to Patients and Families ; Patient Selection for Dignity Therapy ; Who Should Not Take Part in Dignity Therapy? ; Chapter 4: Doing Dignity Therapy ; Setting up the Dignity Therapy Session ; The Role of the Dignity Therapist ; References ; Chapter 5: The Generativity Document ; The Rationale for Editing Dignity Therapy Transcripts ; Transcribing the Audio-Recorded Interview ; Editing the Verbatim Transcript ; - Cleaning Up the Transcript ; - Clarifying the Transcript ; - Finding a Suitable Ending ; - The Patient Has the Final Say ; Chapter 6.

Oxford University Press Inc Psychotherapy Skills and Methods That Work
Book SynopsisWhile we know that psychotherapy works, there is hearty debate about what makes it work. In the past, rival arguments have maintained that psychotherapy proves effective because of the treatment approach, patient contributions, or the therapeutic relationship. Psychotherapy Skills and Methods That Work argues that clinical skills and methods also play a crucial role and that what therapists do has major consequences for improving practice.Psychotherapy Skills and Methods That Work is the result of a multiyear, interorganizational Task Force commissioned to identify, compile, and disseminate the research evidence and clinical practices on psychotherapist skills and methods used across theoretical orientations. Edited by renowned scholars Clara E. Hill and John C. Norcross, this book provides original research reviews on the effectiveness of 27 specific psychotherapy skills and methods, including affirmation, self-disclosure, role induction, between-session homework, empathic reflections, mindfulness and acceptance, emotion regulation, and cognitive restructuring. Each chapter on a therapy skill or method features clinical examples, diversity considerations, training implications, and bulleted therapeutic practices, while the final chapter summarizes the research evidence for the effectiveness of these skills/methods and emphasizes implications for clinical training and practice.Forcefully demonstrating what therapists do to help clients change and live more effective lives, Psychotherapy Skills and Methods That Work will serve as a go-to guide for psychotherapy practitioners of all persuasions and professions, as well as graduate students and psychotherapy researchers.Trade ReviewSo many techniques, so little time!

Oxford University Press Inc Healing Hearts and Minds
Book SynopsisFull of evidence-based, easy to understand information about CHD, Healing Hearts and Minds offers strategies for learning to thrive despite living with this condition, but most importantly it will offer hope and connection. Congenital Heart Disease (CHD) is the most commonly diagnosed birth abnormality in the US. With great advances in surgery and medicine, however, survival rates have improved by 75% since the 1940s. Welcome news, of course, as only a few decades ago these birth defects were considered a death sentence, but as with any chronic condition, survival does not mean the issue is cured. With better medical care, babies born today with CHD have a good chance of surviving, but throughout their entire lives they can face surgeries, invasive treatments, lifelong monitoring, frequent medical check-ups, and significant limitations on physical activity, in addition to poor public awareness which can have an impact on social inclusion and understanding. Much attention has rightly beTrade Reviewgives much needed attention to the emotional experience of living with CHD, providing every reader with compassion, tools, resources, and hope. * Karla Deal, Adult Congenital Heart Association *Tracy Livecchi and Liza Morton share a story of courage and hope for those who are living with a congenital heart condition. The authors through their own experiences give voice to the CHC community. They relate their own heroic experiences as they sought an understanding of how their diagnosis influenced their ability to live a full life. We learn from their pioneering journey of self-exploration that, even with limited information from the medical community, they sought to understand their feelings and even metabolic resources. The story is optimistic as we learn that with appropriate medical care and a supportive community, individuals with CHC can live full lives, successfully have families, and navigate being a successful professional. * Professor Stephen Porges, Distinguished University Scientist, Indiana University and Founding Director, Traumatic Stress Research Consortium, Kinsey Institute *This is the book for which we've all been waiting. With warmth, respect, and compassion from two highly regarded authors with lived experiences as well as professional training and expertise, Morton and Livecchi offer an incredible how-to guide for adults everywhere coping with congenital heart conditions. I highly recommend this book for everyone in the congenital heart community-patients, families, and health care professionals. * Dr. Adrienne Kovacs, Clinical and Health Psychologist, Equilibria Psychological Health, Toronto, Canada *Tracy Livecchi and Dr. Liza Morton have harnessed their individualized training and experiences both as mental health professionals as well as adults living with congenital heart conditions (CHCs) to create a first-of-its-kind, easily readable, focused, informative, and entertaining primer and guide to awareness of, and release from, the global suffering that commonly occurs in the setting of a lifelong medical condition. We are grateful to Liza and Tracy for their wisdom in calling this out loud, filling a void for the benefit of our patients, their families, and for our colleagues. * Founding Director Boston Adult Congenital Heart (BACH) and Pulmonary Hypertension Program, Laurence J. Sloss, MD Chair in Cardiology, Associate Professor of Medicine, Harvard Medical School, and Dorothy Pearson, Vice President Global Alliance of Rheumatic and Congenital Hearts, and Former Senior Physician's Assistant, Boston Adult Congenital Heart Disease Center (BACH) *This carefully written and touching book takes a novel approach to CHCs. Written for a lay perspective, underpinned by psychotherapy expertise, the reader is guided through their own journey to explore emotional and mental health. The positive effects of storytelling on mental health are recognized and this approach is excellently weaved throughout the book using the authors' own stories and those of other adults with CHC, families and professionals. Whilst aimed predominantly at supporting those living with CHC and their families/friends, it provides insight and recommendations that all CHC healthcare professionals should be encouraged to read. I loved reading it and will be referring to it again and again. * Dr. Kerry Gaskin, Associate Professor of Nursing, University of Worcester and Chairperson of the Congenital Cardiac Nurses Association (CCNA), United Kingdom *Written with kindness and a sense of community this book offers gentle encouragement for people living with CHCs validating their experience in a world, and body, which may have presented many challenges. The background details how medical advances have increased survival for people with CHC. The authors explain, with great care, the personal and societal challenges of life as 'pioneering patients'. Their expert knowledge is evident, in their lived experience and psychological expertise. They explain the psychological impacts and evidence based coping mechanisms. Diversity of experience is thoughtfully weaved throughout. This book will be an important resource for people living with CHC, their families or anyone working in the healthcare system wanting to take a more psychologically informed approach to care. * Kylie Barclay, Health Policy Professional, United Kingdom *A beautifully crafted journey through stories of adversity, medical procedures and cardiac events framed by stories of love, perseverance and hope. The authors draw on their lived experience of living well with a congenital heart condition and mental health training to discuss the psychological impact of growing up with a lifelong condition. It has important insights and evidence-based strategies for people living with a CHC and those who support them. As we become more aware of the need for psychologically informed care and how a child's experiences of medical care shape life, this book is a must read for those interested in a more trauma informed approach. 'Healing Hearts and Minds' is a wonderful achievement * Professor Lucy Bray, Professor of Child Health Literacy, Edge Hill University and lead ISupport Collaboration *Informative and thought-provoking. 'Patient voice' and 'lived experience' are buzzwords we often hear, yet this can be a tick-box exercise. This book gently but firmly challenges the simple notion people are 'fixed' when they leave hospital. This is not to deny the incredible developments in medical science rather, it's an acknowledgment that we need to support the whole person lifelong. Liza and Tracy have given voice to their experiences and, in doing so, will help to give voice to many others. Their writing offers a priceless combination of truly lived experience and professional expertise, representing a textbook for us all. For those affected by CHCs, clinicians and policymakers committed to providing truly holistic care. * Dr. James Cant, CEO, Resuscitation Council, United Kingdom *Liza and Tracy have produced a toolkit for people living with a CHC, their loved ones and health professionals. Their insights gained through lived experience and professional roles have allowed them to develop a book with a unique perspective. As a healthcare professional this helped me consider how I can better support and meet the needs of people with a CHC, taking a truly holistic approach to their care. Thanks to the authors for their dedication in providing the first toolkit to support the mental health of others with a CHC, for showing them a path already traveled and how to navigate it. I encourage HCPs involved in the care of people with CHC to read this book to support their development. * Maggie Simpson, ACHD Specialist Nurse, Chair British Adult Congenital Cardiac Nursing Association (BCCNA) & Scottish Heart Failure Nurse Forum (SHFNF) *This book is a unique contribution to the world of congenital heart conditions (CHC)-serving both patients and families as well as the clinical care team. Tracy Livecchi and Dr. Liza Morton take the reader on a journey to explore psychological challenges, hopes, and disappointments into the new "normalcy" of CHC patients. The book is motivating, inspiring, and helpful. For congenital heart condition patients and providers this book is a must. * Dr. Dan G. Halpern, MD, Director, Adult Congenital Heart Disease Program, Associate Professor of Medicine, NYU Grossman School of Medicine and NYU Langone Health *As an adult patient with a congenital heart condition (CHC), I have read many books on the topic. This book, however, provided insights and help beyond so many of the others because both of the authors have CHCs and have personally faced the same challenges that I have. I knew they 'got me.' The unique combination of being patients and healthcare professionals provides the authenticity, credibility, and help that simply cannot be achieved in any other way. What I found most beneficial (and healing) about this book is that the authors recognize the differences between adults who were born in the 50s, 60s, 70s, and today—and that these differences can be addressed. The authors' insights and desire (and ability) to help clearly come from the heart. Thank you! * Rick Puder, CHC lived experience and advocate, United States *This book is a wonderful resource that is greatly needed in the CHC patient and family community. I know it would have helped me at a time in my adult life when I had one medical crisis on top of another. At that time, I reached out for therapy but could not find a therapist who 'got' me. I felt so alone and unheard. * Paula Miller, Senior Education Manager, ACHD (Adult Congenital Heart Association), United States *Congenital heart disease (CHD) is a physical condition where the heart has developed abnormalities prior to birth. The amazing success in survival is due to the medical advances in making corrections or adjustments to the physical condition. Particularly in adults, while there are physical symptoms, the effect on their lives tends to be much greater from psychological symptoms. These psychological symptoms are very dependent on the individual, what their lives consist of, and how they can cope with them. The future advances in how to live as full and meaningful life as possible, will be the management of coping well and this book fills a significant gap by offering extensive support, strategies, and techniques to this end. * Michael Cumper, President of Somerville Heart Foundation, United Kingdom / CHC Lived Experience *A psychologically illuminating book focused on congenital heart conditions, life-extending recent advances in medicine and surgery, and the associated health and psychological experiences faced by many. The authors write with an uplifting and inspiring sense of courage, optimism, love, and sensitivity, sharing a rich treasure trove of professional psychological knowledge and lived experience. A wonderful, much needed specialist psychology resource to support health and well-being for the congenital heart family around the world. * Dr. Anne-Marie Doyle BSc MSc MA DClinPy Consultant Clinical Psychologist, Adult Congenital Heart Service, Royal Brompton Hospital, London *A book full of compassion and hard-won insight, wisdom, and practical strategies for healing, I sincerely hope this book becomes the classic it deserves to be. While it may focus on CHC, there are many other planets of chronic disease that could readily be brought into its orbits of enlightened understanding and gifts of tender self-care. * Brian Dolan OBE, FFNMRCSI, FRSA, RMN, RGN, Founder of #endpjparalysis global movement, Director, Health Service 360, Honorary Professor of Leadership in Healthcare, University of Salford *I guess it took two women who were born with CHCs and who went into the mental health field for us to finally get a book discussing issues affecting CHC families in a gestalt manner. Now we can move beyond mere survival to having all members of the CHC community living our best lives. This book addresses these issues and gives coping strategies that are helpful not only for the patients but also for the family members. Thank you for validating the feelings I've been having for over two decades! I loved the quotes from members of the CHC community and the case studies. It made the book more digestible and relatable. * Anna Jaworski, Owner and founder, Baby Hearts Press, Host, Heart to Heart with Anna, CEO of Hearts Unite The Globe, Parent of a son with CHC *Tracy Livecchi and Dr Morton have created an essential road map to guide congenital heart survivors as they negotiate the life-long challenges of their condition. Compassionate, and wise, it offers the kind of advice that is deeply informed by their own CHD journey, as well as by their many years caring for the mental health needs of their community. Most impressive is their focus on wellness, which they argue can be achieved even in the face of severe health challenges. The authors offer concrete steps that every patient can take to embrace their lives with their own unique heart. * Amy Verstappen, President, Global Alliance for Rheumatic and Congenital Hearts, CHC lived experience *The complexities of mental health issues among patients with congenital heart disease (CHD) are unlike any other. Tracy and Liza are not only well-respected therapists in our community, but as CHD patients, they have thoughtfully conveyed our challenges first-hand. This comprehensive resource for patients, their loved ones, and medical providers is a very informative read! * Lena Morsch, Founder of Zipper Sisters: Women with Congenital Heart Disease, CHC Lived Experience, United States *Table of ContentsForeword Preface: Our Hope and Mission Chapter 1: A Brief Medical History Chapter 2: The Possible Impact of Having a Congenital Heart Condition Chapter 3: Understanding the Body's Alarm System, Anxiety and Trauma Chapter 4: Weathering the Storm; Low Mood, Shame and Anger Chapter 5: Self-care & Stress Management Toolkit Chapter 6: Managing Uncomfortable Feelings Chapter 7: Managing Unhelpful Thoughts and Behaviors Chapter 8: Maintaining Important Relationships Chapter 9: Coping with Medical Procedures, Events and Symptoms Chapter 10: Taking the Wheel Chapter 11: The Gifts of CHCs Chapter 12: Supporting People with a CHC Afterword Useful Organizations and Resources

Oxford University Press Ethical Dilemmas in Genetics and Genetic Counseling Principles Through Case Scenarios
Book SynopsisKnowledge of the genetic basis of human diseases is growing rapidly, with important implications for pre-conceptional, prenatal, and predictive testing. While new genetic testing offers better insight into the causes of and susceptibility for heritable diseases, not all inherited diseases that can be predicted on the basis of genetic information can be treated or cured. Should we test everyone who wants to know his or her genetic status, even when there are no possibilities for treatment? What is the role of the right-not-to-know? Do we test children for adult onset disorders because the parents just have to know or do we respect the children''s right to choose when they are older? Do we allow commercial companies to offer genetic tests directly to consumers without the proper oversight regarding what the test results will mean? By using a creative approach that focuses on a single extended family as a case example to illustrate each chapter''s key point, the authors elucidate ethical issues arising in the genetics clinic and laboratory surrounding many timely issues, including: prenatal and pre-implantation genetic diagnosis assisted reproductive technologies incidental findings in genetic testing gene patenting testing children for adult onset disorders direct to consumer testing Ethical Dilemmas in Genetic Counseling: Principles through Case Scenarios is essential reading for anyone interested in the ethical issues surfacing in common genetics practice.

Taylor & Francis Ltd (Sales) Neuropsychotherapy How the Neurosciences Inform
Book SynopsisNeuropsychotherapy is intended to inspire further development and continual empirical updating of consistency theory. It is essential for psychotherapists, psychotherapy researchers, clinical psychologists, psychiatrists, neuroscientists, and mental-health professionals.Profoundly important and innovative, this volumeprovides necessary know-how for professionals as it connects the findings of modern neuroscience to the insights of psychotherapy. Throughout the book, a new picture unfolds of the empirical grounds of effective psychotherapeutic work. Author Klaus Grawe articulates a comprehensive model of psychological functioning-consistency theory-and bridges the gap between the neurosciences and the understanding of psychological disorders and their treatment.Neuropsychotherapy illustrates that psychotherapy can be even more effective when it is grounded in a neuroscientific approach. Cutting across disciplines that are characteristically disparate, the book identifies the neural foundations of various disorders, suggests specific psychotherapeutic conclusions, and makes neuroscientific knowledge more accessible to psychotherapists. The book's discussion of consistency theory reveals the model is firmly connected to other psychological theoretical approaches, from control theory to cognitive-behavioral models to basic need theories.Table of ContentsContents: Series Foreword.

Taylor & Francis Inc Principles of Multicultural Counseling and
Book SynopsisIn an era of globalization characterized by widespread migration and cultural contacts, psychologists, counselors, and other mental health professionals face a unique challenge: how does one practice successfully when working with clients from so many different backgrounds? Gielen, Draguns, and Fish argue that an understanding of the general principles of multicultural counseling is of great importance to all practitioners. The lack of this knowledge can have several negative consequences during therapy, including differences in expectations between counselor and client, misdiagnosis of the client's concerns, missed non-verbal cues, and the client feeling that she has been misunderstood. This volume focuses on the general nature of cultural influences in counseling rather than on counseling specific ethnic groups. Counseling practices from all over the world, not just those of Western society, are explored.

Springer Publishing Company Understanding Pastoral Counseling
Book SynopsisProfessors Snodgrass and Maynard have done their field a service in bringing together all that is here. The American Association of Pastoral Counselors now has a splendid contemporary text to present themselves to other fields whose members may yet wonder ''What has religion (or spirituality) or pastoral counseling have to do with the healing arts?'' There was in a past era the critique and complaint that the pastoral care and counseling field did not have a literature and history that allowed it to stand as intellectually serious colleagues with others in more traditional theological disciplines. Now they have an answer in this book. -- Curtis W. Hart, MD, Weill Cornell Medical College, Journal of Religion and HealthThis book is written in the active voice. It does not desire to define pastoral counseling but offers real time examples that illustrate the breadth, depth and vibrancy of practitioners in various contexts of work and practice.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Embodied Social Justice
Book SynopsisEmbodied Social Justice introduces an embodied approach to working with oppression. Grounded in current research, the book integrates key findings from education, psychology, sociology, and somatic studies while addressing critical gaps in how these fields have addressed pervasive patterns of social injustice. At the heart of the book, a series of embodied narratives bring to life everyday experiences of oppression through evocative descriptions of how power implicitly shapes body image, interpersonal space, eye contact, gestures, and the use of touch. This second edition includes two new body stories from research participants living and working in the global South. Supplemental guidelines for practice, updated references, and new community resources have also been added. Designed for social workers, counselors, educators, and other human service professionals working with members of disenfranchised and marginalized communities, Embodied SociTrade Review"Johnson’s scholarship on embodied social justice has been leading the field for over a decade. Their cycle of embodied critical learning has become the cornerstone for social justice education in somatic psychology. The revised edition updates their integrative approach to social justice through compelling personal disclosure combined with case examples and practice models to help practitioners everywhere. This second edition is so very timely and is an essential read for somatic practitioners and mental health professionals alike." Chris Walling, Former President, United States Association of Body Psychotherapy"Ground-breaking and indispensable for critical and feminist theory, this book provides important new ways of thinking about how bodies are shaped, influenced, and colonized within unequal societies. In a time of growing social inequality, the author offers real insights into how we might resist the social, political, and cultural changes that are lived through our bodies." Sherry Shapiro, Professor Emerita of Dance Education, Meredith College, USA "Oppression spares no body. The injustices we craft our lives within are both systemic and intimate, taking root in the flesh. Rather than pit the political against the body, Embodied Social Justice reveals their interpenetration, opening up mindful awareness of the life of the political within our very tissues and movements." Mary Watkins, Professor Emerita of Community, Liberation, Indigenous and Ecopsychologies, Pacifica Graduate Institute, USA"A much needed, well-written, and profoundly useful book that will help change the course of somatics and social justice work. Through research and first-hand stories, the author shows us the effects of oppression on all bodies, then follows up with practical, powerful, and progressive practices that can bring us back home to ourselves."

Taylor & Francis EcoCentred Therapy
Book SynopsisOffering a much-needed update of Rogerian theory and practice, and based on insights from cultural studies and ecopsychology, this book breaks new ground by questioning the relevance of certain ways of thinking about counselling and psychotherapy not least in the current planetary emergency.In response to the growing need for therapists to address increasing anxieties about the climate crisis, Bernie Neville and Keith Tudor address the issue in terms that help therapists reflect on their practice. Based on the authorsâ previous publications and incorporating new material, this book presents and explores ideas that have been largely neglected in person-centred literature. It re-visions person-centred psychology (PCP) from what has become predominantly its application to individuals to a broader perspective on and about life and the living world. Further, it takes a philosophical and cultural perspective to re-present and re-vision PCP as a 'we' psychology, an eco-psychology, aTrade Review"The whakataukī/proverb "Ka titiro ki muri, ka haere ki mua – I walk backwards into the future with my eyes fixed on my past" instills in us the importance of remembering who we are. Carl Rogers’ original ideas have always been foundational to Keith’s discussion of person-centred psychology (PCP) throughout his career, and he has led the invitation to reimagine PCP with the hope of creating new pathways for practitioners. This book provides another disruption to our familiar and comfortable notions of PCP, and extends our considerations to include cosmological landscapes."Shirley Rivers (Ngāi Takoto, Ngāpuhi, Waikato), Head of Mission, Methodist Mission Northern, Auckland, Aotearoa New Zealand."What a treat to have this book as a legacy to Bernie Neville's lived presence in this world: a fitting tribute to his life as an embodied being, sharing his unique contribution to our 'we-ness' and experiences of understanding and healing our relationships ecotherapeutically. Neville's co-author Keith Tudor has done a fabulous job of honouring their interweaving theories and ideas and bringing this book to fruition: a generous gift to our world. They provide a depth of understanding, an academic rigour and the radical hopefulness we need to understand our pain and anxiety and to find healing, active and growthful ways forward. Accompanied by the soundtrack of Archie Roach, poems, images and voices of colleagues and Neville's daughter, Alisoun, this book sets us free to imagine and re-vision what is possible.The book reflects my meetings with Bernie over the years at international gatherings: the embodied excitement of sharing life-changing ideas; the incredible depth of processing and reflection; the challenges of facing and accepting hopelessness and despair and the down to earth, every day practicalities of living as humans; and delighting in each other's company and the fact of being alive. This book has a lot to say about daring to live a meaningful life."Suzanne Keys, Person-centred practitioner and environmentalist, UK."This is a deeply moving book on multiple levels. Firstly, there is a profound sense of care and deep respect from Keith and associated secondary authors as they strive to articulate the final published words of Bernie. It is deeply moving in the way this is managed, knowing from the start that this book represents the culmination of Bernie’s lifetime of academic work, yet he was unable to see the project through to its end. Secondly, the book "moves deeply" through its subject matter. We are entering an age of growing awareness of the enormity of the challenge to our very existence from our "planetary emergency". This book offers not just a theoretical framework to grapple with our place in this, but also fosters a deep "hope", informed and grounded in Rogers’ person-centred approach. As such, this book will be of profound relevance to contemporary person-centred academics, students and practitioners, and indeed all of humanity, as like it or not we are all in this together."Dr Brian Rodgers, Senior Lecturer, Te Kura Tauwhiro Tangata | School of Counselling, Human Services & Social Work, Waipapa Taumata Rau | The University of Auckland, Aotearoa New Zealand."This is an amazing book. It encompasses and connects us with somatic, psychological, anthropological, and interpersonal phenomena in the whole of nature. Specifically addressing the field of psychotherapy and therapists, the authors gently and firmly invite us to think about who and what we are, essentially. The book offers us a guide to discovering and confirming the universal relating principle(s) in universe, including ourselves, who are never the centre of this planet."Izumi Kadomoto, Professor, Department of Clinical Psychology, Taisho University, Japan."In this time of ecological crises, too much in our psychotherapeutic traditions appears feeble, unsuited to the problems of our age, or, worse, complicit in those very problems. In Eco-centred Therapy: Revisioning Person-Centred Psychology for a Living World, Bernie Neville and Keith Tudor dive deep into Carl Rogers’ thought and emerge with something novel and urgently needed: a vision of a psychotherapy for both person and planet. This book looks to the past, yet it is about our future."Dr Rhys Price-Robertson, gestalt therapist, researcher, and educator, Australia.Table of ContentsIntroduction Part 1: Ground 1.

Dr. Dee is a survivor who regained the ability to articulate what many TBI survivors cannot, and this powerful account, provided in real-time, portrays the many seemingly unrelatable symptoms of brain injury and subsequent post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Dr. Dee portrays how events pushed her beyond her limits and resulted in life-altering learning experiences, revealing a process of first figuring out how to live, then making meaning of her struggle.When half-way through her PhD program, Dr. Dee was crashed into by a car travelling at 65 miles per hour. She suffered a TBI. She lost her ability to read and write. She had a severe speech impediment and significantly impaired memory. Her journey of recovery, described in the book as her trek, spans four significant periods. The road begins with the loss of most of herself.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Perpetrators of Intimate Partner Sexual Violence
Book SynopsisResearch shows that intimate partner sexual violence (IPSV) is the most common form of sexual assault. Professional focus is often on the victim, but more information is needed about the perpetrators in order to have a fuller understanding of this crime. The very nature of IPSV sexual assault within a relationship means that professionals who work with victims must understand the dynamics of perpetrators as well.This new book will distill the knowledge that exists about perpetrators of IPSV. It includes chapters by authors who have worked directly with IPSV perpetrators and covers important subjects such as addressing IPSV in batterer groups, police management strategies, the danger of IPSV to children, the different types of violence perpetrators use, and prevention approaches for young people. There is also still a widely held view that rapists are strangers in alleyways. This book is intended to educate professionals about who is a perpetrator, as well as to highlight thTrade Review'Perpetrators of IPSV is an important and valuable contribution to our understanding of this widespread, yet understudied, form of violence.
