American Psychiatric Association Publishing Psychological Trauma
Book SynopsisHow many of your psychiatric patients have a history of severe physical or psychological abuse or other psychological trauma? These patients often present diagnostic dilemmas, get a variety of diagnoses, and frequently prove difficult-to-treat. They may have syndromes that are reminiscent of the post-traumatic sequelae in adults, such as physiological hyperactivity, a sense of loss of control, passivity alternating with uncontrolled violence, and sleep disturbances including nightmares. Investigating the impact of the traumatic event in connection with the development of the disorder is essential to an effective treatment approach. Psychological Trauma provides a basis for understanding human response to trauma. The consequences of specific traumas have usually been described as separate entities. This is the first book to examine human response to trauma as a whole. In this thorough study of the biologic, psychodynamic and social consequences of trauma, separate chapters explore: • The impact of separation from the parental figure on a child's development, including cognitive and neurological disturbances• The psychobiology of traumatic response• Traumatic antecedents of borderline personality disorder• The effect of trauma on the family unit• Amnesia and dissociation as response to trauma• A stress management approach that can be incorporated into the treatment of patients Table of ContentsThe psychological consequences of overwhelming life experiences. The separation cry and the trauma response: developmental issues in the psychobiology of attachment and separation. The psychobiology of the trauma response: hyperarousal, constriction, and addiction to traumatic reexposure. Evolving ideas: the effect of abuse on children's thought. Traumatic antecedents of borderline personality disorder. Trauma in the family: perspectives on the intergenerational transmission of violence. The role of the group in the origin and resolution of the trauma response. Amnesia, dissociation, and the return of the repressed. Retrieval and integration of traumatic memories with the "painting cure." From victim to survivor: a stress management approach in the treatment of learned helplessness.

Open University Press Nursing in Child and Adolescent Mental Health
Book Synopsis"This book considers the range of skills and roles that nurse's now undertake within specialist CAMHS, it provides a good basic introduction for nurses and clinicians from other disciplines. Discussion around medication management as part of a nurse's extended role is timely and will be of particular use to those considering this option within their practice. The text is easily accessible, utilising case studies to enhance learning. The inclusion of research and audit helps raise the need not only for nurses to be more involved in research but also the need for clinicians to evaluate their practice. I would recommend this text to clinicians new to CAMHS."Sharon Pagett, Senior Lecturer, Mental Health (CAMHS), Department of Nursing, University of Central Lancashire, UK"Nurses have a key role to play within the Child and Adolescent Mental Health Team.

Taylor & Francis Coping with Chronic Illness
Book SynopsisThis valuable book combines psychological theories of health with the lived experience of coping with chronic health conditions, focusing on the ill person as an actor of their own development. It draws on perspectives from developmental and health psychology alongside the authorâs personal experience of chronic illness.Bonino considers all aspects of living with illness, from issues that impact on everyday functioning such as pain and fatigue, to the rebuilding of identity through meaningful new goals and effective actions, and the development of therapeutic relationships. Psychological theories are interweaved with descriptions of lived encounters to center the experience of the person living alongside illness and provide insightful points of reference that everyone could try to use when facing the challenges of chronic disease in the course of their daily lives.Coping with Chronic Illness is important reading for those living with chronic health conditions, as well Trade ReviewThis book brings a new vision into the experience of living with chronic disease. Silvia Bonino had the courage and intelligence to put her knowledge as professor of developmental psychology in dialogue with her personal experience to produce a very fine and sensitive description of the processes, emotions, states of mind, strategies and mechanisms of defence of the chronic patient. It offers both a critical and constructive look at the intervention of different health personnel, highlighting the need for better communication between professionals and patients.

Rlpg/Galleys Transformative Phenomenology
Book SynopsisTrade ReviewThis book is a masterful example of the transformative potential of phenomenology as a methodology and a way of living one's life open to possibility. These scholar practitioners bring the reader inside ordinary lifeworld experiences such as illness and personal trauma, corporate environments, cultural identity, artists and jazz musicians to reveal the extraordinary understandings to which their writing gives voice. As a phenomenologist, I highly recommend this book for an accessible entree into the methods of phenomenology, based on Husserlian and Schutzian approaches. Be prepared to experience your own transformation and 'possibilizing' as you read and engage with it! -- Francine Hultgren, University of MarylandA wide-ranging collection of compelling research studies and personal reflections. Displays the wide range of ways that phenomenological analysis can enrich understanding of one's self and others and makes phenomenology's insights readily accessible. -- Frances Chaput Waksler, Wheelock CollegeThe essays in this collection offer an important display of the power of phenomenology as a method that can also be a form of life. I recommend them both for the wide range of human experience that they bring within the purview of phenomenology, and for their reminder that the beginning and end of phenomenology, as of all philosophy, is the sense of wonderment. * Springer Science + Business Media *Table of ContentsPart 1 Foreword Part 2 Preface Part 3 Part I.

Book SynopsisTransformative Phenomenology captures the influence of phenomenology and hermeneutics on non-university-based scholar-practitioners who completed their doctoral education in later life, thus blending their workplace experiences with their intellectual interests. Contributions from seasoned university-based scholars expands our understanding of phenomenological inquiry in fresh ways. The concept of ''transformative phenomenology'' springs from the long-term teaching and research experiences of David Rehorick and Valerie Bentz, the book''s co-editors.Trade ReviewThis book is a masterful example of the transformative potential of phenomenology as a methodology and a way of living one's life open to possibility.
