Book SynopsisGenuss und kontrollierter Gebrauch von Suchtmitteln wie beispielsweise Alkohol gehören heute zu den selbstverständlichen Entwicklungsaufgaben von Jugendlichen und jungen Erwachsenen. In den letzten zwanzig Jahren ist die Kompetenz im Umgang mit modernen Medien hinzugekommen. Auch wenn Suchtentwicklungen eine starke gesellschaftliche, soziale und familiäre Komponente haben, besteht zumeist eine individuell verstehbare und einer Intervention zugängliche Psychodynamik. Neben allen bewährten pädagogischen und verhaltenstherapeutischen Maßnahmen ist daher ein grundsätzlicher psychodynamischer Zugang besonders bei schweren komorbiden Fällen von großer Bedeutung fÃ"r das Gesamtverständnis und die Therapieplanung.

Book SynopsisWas haben Roadmaps, Heldenreisen und Saftpressen mit Veränderungsprozessen in Organisationen zu tun? Sie können der Schlüssel zum erfolgreichen Wandel sein, zeigt Ute Clement in diesem theoretisch fundierten wie unterhaltsamen Band. Er führt ein in die zentralen Konzepte der systemischen Organisationstheorie und stellt die Herangehensweisen und Methoden vor, die sich in Ute Clements 25-jähriger Erfahrung als Change-Beraterin bewährt haben. In einer Welt in Bewegung, der Globalisierung und Internationalisierung hängt Unternehmenserfolg immer stärker von der Fähigkeit ab, Veränderungen von Prozessen, Strukturen und der strategischen Ausrichtung aktiv gestalten zu können. Dass Wandel in Organisationen auch Spaß machen und Chancen für alle Beteiligten bieten kann, betont die Autorin. Dafür braucht es den Entwurf einer Change-Architektur, die, nach systemischem Ansatz, sowohl die persönliche als auch die organisationale Ebene einbezieht. Dabei ist das Ziel stets ein »Change zweiter Ordnung«, das Erlernen eines offenen, situativen Umgangs mit Wandel für die Zukunft, der im Mindset der involvierten Personen und in der Organisationsstruktur selbst stattfindet. Ein geeignetes Werkzeug, um den Schritt in die Gestaltung einer neuen gemeinsamen Zukunft zu ermöglichen, sind innovative narrative Konzepte, die im zweiten Teil des Buches erläutert werden. Zwei Fallgeschichten veranschaulichen die Herangehensweise.

Book SynopsisThe "resource-oriented narrative trauma therapy with children and adolescents with complex trauma disorders" (ResonaT) is a gentle form of trauma processing through animal stories. In her understanding of therapy, she refers to Klaus Grawe's active factor model and the neurobiological self-healing process of memory reconsolidation. Regina Hiller and Thomas Hensel combine a compact presentation of existing narrative approaches and a theoretical foundation of the ResonaT method with a collection of a total of 90 example narratives for different topics and situations. This selection of pre-formulated animal stories enables the therapist to work with the approach in daily practice without much additional writing effort.

Book SynopsisGoethe was not only a child genius, a beloved poet, and an important politician throughout his life he also sometimes missed and suffered for it. Yet he had the special ability to accept mental anguish and to implement it for the further development of his own creativity.Since Goethes time psychology has made great progress, and especially neurobiology has made great discoveries about the nature of the human mind. Nevertheless, we have few documents that so deeply illustrate the development of creativity as Goethes letters and his works not to mention the detailed descriptions delivered by his family and friends, both male and female. His path to creativity can even today be an inspiration and a beacon to guide all of us to discover our own creative tendencies. Thus, a study of Goethes path to creativity is not solely an intellectual delight, but also one with very practical benefits.

Book SynopsisThe fact that symbiotic entanglements are a kind of hostage-taking of the child is not only shown by many biographies of successful artists, writers, top athletes, etc. - they are a common disease-causing phenomenon. Due to the traumatic experiences of a parent, a symbiotic bond with the child can arise, which serves as an instrument for their own needs or compulsions. Such attachment patterns can degenerate into emotional abuse, which has a negative effect on the development of those affected into adulthood. Symbiotically abused people suffer from violations of the boundaries of intimacy and have difficulties in perceiving themselves appropriately, as well as in separating themselves and dealing with impulses of aggressiveness. In this book, Franco Biondi deals with the psychodynamics of symbiotic entanglement patterns and embeds them in attachment theory, developmental traumatology and systemic approaches. Numerous treatment sequences illustrate the topic and give hope to be able to free yourself from such entanglements.

Book SynopsisIn times of self-optimization, people understandably often seek quick solutions to their problems under the pressure of everyday life. Depth psychological counseling develops changes for unbearable conditions, but it takes time for them. Because it has an eye on people in their entirety, including their history. Symptoms and disorders are not viewed as deficits in need of repair, but as meaningful messages from the soul. In depth psychological counseling, it is less about adapting people to the given personal and social living conditions. Rather, the focus is on the question of which internal and external conflicts are which so far can only be dealt with in an unproductive, often self-damaging way, and which new, better ways of resolving conflicts are possible. Such a perspective can promote the experience of inner continuity and enable autonomous life decisions. The book presents a comprehensive concept for depth psychological counseling, which illustrates the theoretical foundations and in particular the methodological conclusions of this approach in a differentiated and practical way with detailed case presentations and intervention steps. < / p>

Book SynopsisOften stressed? Hardly a quiet minute? Body and soul on strike? In this constantly changing time, there is a rapid risk of being thrown out of balance. The holistic consulting practice of systemic health promotion offers a solution: It uses joie de vivre as a "control parameter" and at the same time as a connecting element between health and illness. With short, effective and complexity-reducing counseling formats, she primarily helps people with psychological (secondary) illnesses to take preventive action. For the authors, systemic health promotion means much more than the absence of illness. Using case studies, they show how those affected can activate unused resources, increase their self-efficacy and resilience and find joy in life again. They encourage fear-free handling of disorders and thus expand the classic health promotion offers to include an equal view of the contexts of life, love and work.

Book SynopsisBurnout? Stress? Overwhelmed? These symptoms are omnipresent and it is hard to imagine our fast-moving times without them. Ute Zander-Schreindorfer, on the other hand, is convinced that the future of the world of work is healthy! In the face of changes and challenges that can hardly be foreseen, we need health skills that enable us to adapt to the world of work of tomorrow. The systemic advisory approach in particular is suitable for providing impulses for individual solutions that distinguish themselves from superficial standard tips and help stressed people to feel better. Among other things, the readers get to know "peer coaching" - a method in which friends and family of employees support them in achieving their health goals. The author is aimed at coaches who already have a basic understanding of the relevant techniques bring along, and presents methods that focus specifically on advice on stress, burnout and how to deal with over- and under-challenged situations in the job. In addition, it addresses executives who want to use coaching skills to integrate the topic of health - and above all, staying healthy - into their leadership behavior. Health and performance are not a contradiction in terms, but can be rebalanced through dialogue.

Book SynopsisYou don't understand how this decision came about? Are you wondering why the desired effect did not occur even though every step was carefully considered? Nothing is discussed more in organizations than decisions. So you feel like waiting for half an eternity for someone to be hit "once", and then it turns out differently than expected, although countless people tried to collect facts beforehand - because facts are supposed to help achieve objectivity. If the outcome of the decision is positive, the person who made it will be given praise to heaven. If the opposite is the case, she may be hunted from the yard. In short, organizations often operate on unsafe ground. How can this all-too-familiar pattern be explained? Wasn't everything purely objective, wasn't it? The authors Klaus Eidenschink and Ulrich Merkes decipher these and other supposed contradictions in relation to decisions that people in organizations encounter on a daily basis. In doing so, they provide explanations that do justice to the dynamics in modern organizations and help to understand them. Instead of prescription formulas, they offer a tailor-made solution that helps even complex and difficult-to-control change projects to be successful.

Book SynopsisThe grief over the loss of the old parents is also the grief over the final loss of one's own childhood. If this was emotionally filling, women and men can cope well internally with this turning point. However, if there has been an unsatisfied longing for affection and attachment since the beginning of one's own life, the "orphaning" of children that have long been grown up can trigger a crisis through the death of their parents. The realization that there will be no more opportunity to make up for what has been missed then has a shocking effect. Emotions such as anger, guilt, and shame can come onto the inner stage. Or an unsettling feeling of "finally free" spreads. In this way, grown children in the grief for their deceased parents remain connected to them in a blocking way. This prevents the important step towards full adulthood. Grief counselors, therapists, family counselors can support those affected in a loving way to address the unprocessed pain, to integrate the loss and, in the end, to make peace with themselves.

Book SynopsisHow can systemic approaches be made significantly more effective, especially for the challenges of individual psychotherapy? What additional methods and perspectives are required to change disorder-specific personality patterns in a targeted, solution-oriented and sustainable manner?

He explains the basics of emotion-based work and shows how experience-oriented approaches can enrich systemic practice. Michael Raisch presents procedures such as schema therapy, emotion-focused therapy and inner-child work in detail and uses numerous case studies to explain how a new emotional understanding enables resilient and self-care experiences.

Book SynopsisThe activities of their children are often a mystery to parents - especially when it comes to digital media. This topic has become an indispensable part of parent coaching. With vigilant concern, parents achieve success and demystify smartphones and co. Haim Omer's concept of vigilant care is based on the assumption that those responsible for parenting must be present where their children and young people are. Martin Fellacher transfers the three levels of vigilant concern to the handling of digital media in an undogmatic, optimistic and vivid manner. The practical examples make it clear that the virtual world is not a demon and show how parents manage to be informed about the activities of their children and counteract dangerous behavior.

With them, it is possible to implement the variety of methods of face-to-face coaching appropriately and effectively online.

Book SynopsisThe roller coaster of emotions every four weeks. If the most natural thing in the world does not work, systemic and transgenerative fertility counseling can support and stabilize unwanted childless people in a resource-oriented manner. Unintentionally childless - people who are shaken to their foundations feel shame and powerlessness, old biographical wounds break open. The desire to have children as a private, political, ethical and, above all, controversial topic with regard to reproductive medicine requires those affected to adopt a separate attitude. The author shows the topicality of the discourse and shows on the basis of various constellations in practical examples how singles and couples can actively check and weigh up their values, wishes and ideas. In this way the longing for a child can be seen as a resource and used as a process as a hint for a worthwhile design of everyday life. A child cannot be replaced, but a happy life can be achieved even without a child. This volume is aimed at therapists, counselors, coaches, all those affected and their relatives. Systemic methods and a transgenerational perspective, for example by integrating the desired child into the family system, are good and successful companions in advising clients.

Book SynopsisKonflikte begleiten die Menschheit seit Urzeiten und wohl fast genauso lange versuchen Menschen, sie zu begrenzen und mit ihnen umzugehen – sei es als Betroffene oder als Helfer, mit mehr oder weniger großem Erfolg. Denn wenn erst einmal ein Konfliktsystem entstanden ist, wenn sich negative Erwartungsstrukturen und mit ihnen negative Selbstverständlichkeiten und Eigengesetzlichkeiten entwickelt haben, wird es für die Beteiligten immer schwerer, diesen zu entrinnen: Die Komplexität unserer sozialen Lebenswelt, in der es für die Kommunikation ohnehin nicht leicht ist, sich zu orientieren, wird ausgeblendet. Verletztes Gerechtigkeitsempfinden, Missverständnisse und unglückliche Versuche, diese zu korrigieren, wechseln sich ab. Man beginnt, Konfliktursachen »personenbezogen« zuzurechnen (»Es liegt an dir! Deine Schuld!«), und dem Konfliktpartner negative Motive zu unterstellen (»Das machst du nur, weil ...!«), der das wiederum ebenfalls tut. Eine Reihe gut untersuchter, aber wenig bekannte psychologischer Vorgänge laufen in uns ab, wenn wir in Konflikte geraten. Die Empörung über den anderen wächst, dummerweise meist auf beiden Seiten. Langsam beginnt das Karussell sich zu drehen – immer schneller, bis ... Das Buch stellt die verschiedenen psychologischen Mechanismen in den Kontext eines systemischen Verständnisses von Konflikten und erläutert Möglichkeiten wie das Karussell gebremst und verlangsamt werden kann.

Book SynopsisRadio silence someone breaks off contact with others without notice. For some it is a liberation, for others it is the beginning of a torturous time. An agreement seems impossible. How can systemic therapists and counselors support the abandoned and abandoned in this situation? Systemic work in families with broken contacts usually starts at the point when one of the two parties comes and spreads their world of experience. On both sides, the focus is on suffering and a lack of salvation - that is often the only thing they have in common at first. Two (or more) constructions of reality meet they seem to be dealing with different worlds that exist in parallel. Very different time levels also come into play. Whether, how and when system members can find each other again depends very much on our approach and the exploration of the respective possibilities. It is important to carefully navigate around cliffs and patiently open up spaces for encounters and opportunities. Christiane Jendrich explains the background to the topic of breaking up contact and relationship and communication patterns and presents a tried-and-tested model for counseling and therapy that helps to understand radio silence and can show ways out. Numerous detailed case studies and working materials supplement this practical guide.

Book SynopsisThe world of work is full of complex challenges that are often difficult to master alone. Collegial advice offers valuable support for this. This is a tried-and-tested format that enables people to advise each other on an equal footing and without professional support. Through the joint exchange, the individual gains an extended overview of stuck situations and potential solutions. The concept of collegial advice presented in this publication is based on the Heidelberg integrative process model for advice. This model is based on synergetics as the theory of self-organization and the systemic problem-solving theory. In addition, the model gives central importance to systematic reflection processes. At the same time, the book is consistently practically oriented with numerous working aids and guidelines for preparation, implementation and reflection - also available online - as well as an independent concept for a live online setting. In this way, collegial advice can do justice to the growing importance of virtual forms of learning.

Book SynopsisWie werde ich eine kompetente, systemisch handelnde Fachkraft? Es gibt unendlich viele und im Detail unterschiedliche Lern- und Bildungswege. Trotzdem ist das Beratungslernen an Voraussetzungen, Gelingensfaktoren und bestimmte Entwicklungsgesetze gebunden. Über die gezielte Herstellung und den Einsatz solcher Voraussetzungen und Gelingensfaktoren – in der Sozialwissenschaft als Professionalisierung bezeichnet – berichtet Marc Weinhardt. Die Lesenden werden angeregt, ihren eigenen Lern- und Bildungsprozess in den Blick zu nehmen und das eigene Lernen zum Fall zu machen. Wie das geht, illustrieren drei Fallbeispiele. Sie zeigen typische Situationen, in die beratende Fachkräfte in ihrer Funktion als Lerner und Lernerinnen systemischer Beratung geraten können, und was ihnen dann hilft, an Souveränität zu gewinnen. Denn oftmals sind Klientinnen und Klienten eine viel größere Intervention für die Beratenden als umgekehrt.

Book SynopsisDer multidimensionale Hilfebedarf wohnungsloser Menschen mit psychischen Beeinträchtigungen lässt in der Beratung schnell die Frage aufkommen „Wo fängt man an?“. Marion Ludwig gibt kompetente und praxisnahe Antworten. Sie zeigt auf, wie die systemische Haltung einen adäquaten Umgang nicht nur mit der oftmals einhergehenden Problematik der Exklusion leistet. Fachpersonen, die wohnungslose Menschen mit psychischen Beeinträchtigungen beraten und unterstützen, benötigen in diesen Arbeitskontexten spezielle Kompetenzen und adäquate Handlungsansätze. Marion Ludwig erläutert den Aspekt der Wohnungslosigkeit und Begriffe wie Wohnungsnotfall, Exklusion, psychische Störung und Behinderung und ergänzt sie um einen systemischen Blickwinkel. Das Buch gibt Einblicke in Lebensgeschichten von Menschen, die „von vorn beginnen“. Fallbeispiele veranschaulichen eine systemische Arbeitsweise, die den Fokus auf das Empowerment der Klienten legt. Rechtliche Grundlagen und organisatorische Rahmenbedingungen der Eingliederungshilfe werden praktisch erläutert, ebenso wie Methoden, um Verhaltensweisen und Kommunikationsstrukturen von Klienten zu reflektieren. Die Lesenden erfahren etwas über die Bedeutung von Frustration, Selbstvorwürfen und Depression im Kontext finanzieller Abhängigkeit, wie auch über die Notwendigkeit einer kontextbezogenen Ressourcenorientierung. Welche Bedingungen Erfolg versprechend sind und der Exklusion der Klienten entgegenwirken, führt die Autorin ebenso auf wie die Chancen, die die systemische Körperpsychotherapie im Rahmen einer längerfristigen Begleitung von wohnungslosen Menschen mit psychischen Beeinträchtigungen bietet, zurück.

Book SynopsisTreating people with complex trauma poses great challenges for therapists. Going beyond the established trauma therapeutic concepts, the two authors present their cross-school approach to development and process-oriented work. The special emphasis is on the networking-systemic work with personality components as well as the combination with EMDR. The therapeutic relationship is just as important as the consistent view of the client's strengths. In the encounter with the client, the therapist can find out what she needs, how much stress she can cope with and how much strengthening is necessary for the appropriate next step on her very own path. A wealth of instructions, case studies and exercises enrich the trauma therapy compass.

Book SynopsisThe nestling phenomenon is well known. And it is even spreading more and more: adult children stay at home, refuse to move out and stand on their own two feet. You have developed dysfunctional addiction. Their attitude towards parental all-round care goes hand in hand with financial and social irresponsibility and even addictive behavior. As soon as the parents try to break out of their granting and protective role, these young "inadults" react with demonstrations of power, which can also be violent. A pathological relationship pattern develops that dominates family life and can persist for many years. Haim Omer's tried and tested therapy concept of nonviolent resistance and the new authority supports parents of dysfunctional adolescents and young adults to break free from their powerlessness or even submission. The aim of counseling or therapy is functional dependency that is adequate for all involved.

Book SynopsisThe concepts of non-violent resistance and the New Authority have long since found their way into many psychosocial fields of work. In families with multiple burdens - parents with traumatic experiences such as early child abuse or domestic violence and children who themselves have had traumatic experiences - professionals face particularly complex challenges: How can they help people to (re)discover their inner and interpersonal resources? How can family of origin, foster family or home group become systems in which healing is possible? In this integrative, well-founded practical guide, Peter Jakob explains for the first time how parent coaching can be used as a trauma-oriented intervention - be it in counseling work, in family therapy or in inpatient child and youth welfare. Numerous methodological suggestions for everyday practice and illustrative case studies complete the volume, which expands existing treatment concepts for people who have experienced trauma.

Book Synopsis"Weniger hilft mehr" lautet das Prinzip der psychoanalytischen Methode. Es empfiehlt Verzicht: Frei assoziierend verzichtet der Patient auf eine Auswahl des Gesagten im Hinblick auf logische, ästhetische oder moralische Normen. Gleichschwebend aufmerksam verzichtet der Therapeut auf theoriegeleitete HypothesenprÃ"fung, Helfenwollen und VerstehenmÃ"ssen. Dadurch etabliert sich eine Form therapeutischer Kommunikation, deren Ziel das Gewährenlassen des Unbewussten ist. Ausgehend von Freud fragt Kai Rugenstein nach Herkunft und Zukunft dieser Methode. Er untersucht ihre Anwendung in der Praxis, ihr theoretisches Fundament, ihren interdisziplinären Bezug und ihre Lernbarkeit. Dabei wird deutlich, wie die Methode der Psychoanalyse beständig davon bedroht ist, den mit ihr erzielten Resultaten zum Opfer zu fallen.

Book SynopsisZugehörigkeit oder Gruppenzwang? Gegenseitiges Vertrauen oder Kontrolle? Spirituelle Entwicklung oder Schwarz-Weiß-Denken? Stärkung der Familie oder Zerreißprobe? Es gibt Kinder und Jugendliche, die in eine weltanschauliche "Filterblase" hineingeboren wurden. Was bedeutet es für junge Menschen, wenn sie in Systemen aufwachsen, die in starkem Kontrast zu Werten und Normen der Gesellschaft stehen? Das Leben in Paralleluniversen kann neben einem Zugewinn an Sicherheit auch Beziehungs- und Autonomieverlust bedeuten. Gerade die Coronapandemie hat diese Problematik deutlich vor Augen geführt. Da gab es überzeugte Verschwörungsgläubige, die ihre Kinder monatelang nicht mehr zur Schule schickten oder die sich von dem gesamten bisherigen Umfeld abwandten und sich einer Randgruppierung oder einem Guru anschlossen. Kommen Kinder und Heranwachsende aus derartigen Überzeugungssystemen mit ganz anderen Werten und Normen in Berührung, kann dies für alle Beteiligten zu einer Herausforderung werden. Sarah Pohl und Mirijam Wiedemann sensibilisieren für die besondere Situation dieser Kinder und Jugendlichen und unterstützen Eltern sowie Pädagog:innen, Berater:innen und Therapeut:innen mit Handlungsempfehlungen für die Praxis.

Book SynopsisJürgen Hargens, Anfang der Achtzigerjahre Gründer der »Zeitschrift für systemische Therapie« und Herausgeber einer themenverwandten Buchreihe, arbeitet seit mehr als 25 Jahren als Therapeut und Lehrtherapeut auf der Basis sich ständig fortentwickelnder systemischer Konzepte. Mit »Aller Anfang ist ein Anfang« legt er eine Bilanz seiner Arbeit vor. Ein wesentliches Ergebnis ist für ihn die Erkenntnis, dass jedes, auch ein zweites oder drittes Gespräch mit Klientinnen und Kundinnen als »Erstgespräch« angesehen werden kann, entwickelt sich doch jede Person fortwährend. Vor dem Hintergrund seines ressourcenorientierten Ansatzes liegt somit ein Schwerpunkt auf Erstgesprächen, die es unter Berücksichtigung der Kompetenzen der Klienten/Kunden ziel- und passgenau zu strukturieren gilt. Und das erst recht, seitdem empirisch belegt ist, welch entscheidenden Anteil der Beginn der gemeinsamen Arbeit auf das Therapieergebnis hat. Nach einer kurzen theoretischen Einführung stellt Hargens drei fiktive Erstgespräche vor, bei denen er – ganz im Sinn eines Arbeitsbuchs – jeden Schritt darstellt und jede Äußerung kommentiert und erläutert.Für Therapeutinnen und Beraterinnen erweist sich das Buch als eine Fundgrube, insbesondere was schwierig erscheinende Situationen angeht.

Book SynopsisText in German. What is a biography? Do we humans have a biography by living, or is a biography something that we develop? Can the two aspects be separated at all? To what extent is our personal memory shaped by family history and socio-political factors? How can systemic biography work be designed? who needs them How does it help you cope with everyday life? And what connects them to aspects of the future? Herta Schindler pursues these and other questions in this fundamental work, which presents concepts, methods and practical fields of biographical work in a knowledgeable and historical manner. Creating a biography means giving meaning through storytelling. Biographies do not exist per se, they are constructed in a creative process. Personal memory becomes a shared experience, life lived thereby gains a place in social memory and gains in importance. The aim of the biography work is to give people and their language space, to enable self-expression and to promote self-reflection. This book conveys comprehensive theoretical and practical knowledge for professional support in various psychosocial fields of work and opens up a creative space for search movements for all those involved.
