    Book SynopsisFor effective use, this book should be purchased alongside the storybook - Something Has Happened: A Storybook. This programme of activities, created to be used alongside the storybook, Something Has Happened, has been designed to help children develop their own internal measure of safety, and teaches them how to ask for help if they feel unsafe.The sessions and activities in this book directly correlate to episodes in the storybook Something Has Happened, covering the fundamental aspects of safeguarding as well as elements of the Protective Behaviours (PB) process. Taking adults and children through a wide range of discussion points and activities, all underpinned by clear guidance, it acts as a starting point to help children understand that being safe from harm is the most important right they have and that the trusted adults around them will always take action to believe and protect them.Key features of this resource incTrade Review"Something Has Happened is a valuable and practical safeguarding resource for all professionals who work with children. It covers key themes about feeling and being safe in a detailed, yet engaging, way. The reading book can be used as a standalone resource with clear language and charming illustration, but when combined with the lesson plans and resources it becomes an even more powerful tool to empower children to recognise their own feelings of safety or otherwise and to act upon those feelings appropriately to safeguard themselves.Staff are clearly guided through the lesson plans, with suggestions of appropriate language to use to draw out the main protective behaviours themes and useful photocopiable resources are provided. The fact that we never learn what Joe's "worry" is helps to make the resource universal - it can be used in the curriculum to support children with common worries, through to things that require an "Early Help" approach with other agencies, through to serious disclosures of abuse and neglect. Giving children the language and permission to talk about their worries in this way is both powerful and positive."Jo Perrin, Lead Safeguarding Adviser, Services For EducationTable of ContentsFeeling Safe My Safety Scale Let’s Help Joe My Network Don’t Give Up Feeling Safer Body Outline Feelings Alphabet My Safety Scale Safety Scale Cards Safety Scale Situations I Feel Safe When….

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisCulturally Sensitive Supervision and Training: Diverse Perspectives and Practical Applications is a comprehensive text that exposes readers to an array of culturally competent approaches to supervision and training. The book consists of contributions from a culturally and professionally diverse group of scholars and clinicians who have been on the frontline of providing culturally competent supervision and training in a variety of settings. Many of the invited contributing authors have developed innovative clinical-teaching strategies for skillfully and effectively incorporating issues of culture into both the classroom and the consulting room. A major portion of the book will provide the reader with an insiderâs view of these strategies as well as a plan for implementation, with one chapter devoted to experiential exercises to enhance cultural sensitivity in supervision and training. The text is intended for use in supervision courses, but trainers and supervisors will alsTrade Review“This refreshingly honest book pushes the boundaries of supervision and training by challenging supervisors and trainees to explore how their cultural identities inform their clinical work. Hardy, Bobes, and colleagues masterfully demonstrate how to have difficult cross-racial conversations, including experiential exercises that move trainees from awareness to self-reflection. Given the increasing need to understand the vastly different lived experiences of our changing world, this book trains clinicians to be part of that moral imperative.”—Laurie S. Kaplan, LCSW, Co-Director, Diversity and Social Work Training Program, Ackerman Institute for the Family, New York“Culturally Sensitive Supervision and Training will not only become a must-read for supervision courses and classes in psychology, counseling, or other educational forums, but will be an invaluable resource for practitioners longstanding in the field as well as those newly in practice. The readings will not only validate some of current therapists’ experiences, but will help guide them to take new, more effective paths in their work. This is an outstanding, most welcomed contribution to the field!”—Matthew R. Mock, PhD, Professor of Counseling Psychology, John F. Kennedy University“The family therapy field finally has a supervision text of supreme quality that focuses our attention on self of the therapist work and dimensions of culture! Unlike other supervision texts, it doesn’t just give a cursory nod to culture. It provides a clear theoretical framework for understanding dimensions of culture and the relationship to power, privilege and oppression. This book is a resource that should be a required text for all MFTs and AAMFT Approved supervisors.”—Cadmona A. Hall, PhD, LMFT, FT, AAMFT Approved Supervisor, Associate Professor, Department of Couple & Family Therapy, Adler University“Culturally Sensitive Supervision and Training takes a bold step in the right direction for those interested in integrating a culturally-sensitive and affirmative approach into their supervisory experience. Grounding the reader in both theory and practice-based examples in areas such as the use of the self-as-therapist, Hardy and Bobes provide deep insights into the effective practice of supervision intended to transform practice. A must-read for clinicians at all levels of experience in the field.”—Tricia Stephens, LCSW-R, PhD, Clinical Social Work Practitioner and SupervisorTable of ContentsPreface I.

The perfect companion to The Clinical Practice of Equine-Assisted Therapy, this workbook is appropriate for both students and professionals. Trade Review"When one thinks of horses, words such as strength and majesty are often considered. Equine-assisted interventions have developed over the past fifty years and are becoming widely recognized as a form of therapy. Hallberg’s book and companion workbook are excellent sources for learning how trained horses with professionals can work together to support the quality of life for many. The books are a must for all interested professionals." Aubrey H. Fine, EdD, licensed psychologist/professor at California Polytechnic State University, editor/author of The Handbook on Animal Assisted Therapy, How Animals Help Students Learn, and Afternoons with Puppy."This workbook enables the reader to more fully understand the topics addressed in the book through practical scenarios, activities, and other hands-on methods that ensure better comprehension and retention. The book is about the entire industry; this workbook is about the individual reader."C. Mike Tomlinson, DVM, MBA, president of the Horses & Humans Research Foundation and FEI/USET Team Veterinarian"The Clinical Practice of Equine-Assisted Therapy illuminates the cognitive dissonance that has stymied the field of equine-assisted activities and therapies for the last forty years and offers a thoughtful compilation of historical reference, research, and practical discussion. Using the Equine-Assisted Therapy Workbook together with the text will provoke industry-wide self-reflection and will help both therapy and non-therapy professionals identify and advocate for their important and unique roles within this field."Kitty Stalsburg, ESMHL, CBEIP-ED, PATH Intl. master instructor and executive director of High Hopes Therapeutic Riding, Inc.

Leslie Stewart, PhD, LPC, assistant professor of counseling at Idaho State University, primary author of the American Counseling Association’s Animal-Assisted Therapy Competencies"This workbook provides EAT professionals and students with comprehensive theoretical and practical exercises to complement The Clinical Practice of Equine-Assisted Therapy. I love Leif’s books as they provide me with the ‘go to’ texts of EAT for teaching my students; they are thoroughly researched and their layout encourages student growth and progress, not only in their knowledge of EAT but in self-awareness and self-development. Thank you, Leif!"Clare Thomas-Pino, lecturer/adjunct professor, University of Maine system"The Equine-Assisted Therapy Workbook encourages readers to think and rethink their methodology, ethics, terminology, education, and practice. The workbook is written in an objective way, stating Leif Hallberg's true understanding of EAT with all the twists. Hand in hand with the workbook goes the Clinical Practice of Equine-Assisted Therapy, which targets the differences between the branches of EAA/EAT. Both the book and the workbook can be utilized internationally in teaching and self-learning."Sanna Mattila-Rautiainen, president of the Horses in Education and Therapy International Federation (HETI)"In The Clinical Practice of Equine-Assisted Therapy, Leif Hallberg provides readers with a wealth of information specific to the delivery of clinical services in this field. This book is thought provoking and illuminates the need to further articulate the unique benefits and characteristics of therapeutic riding and equine-assisted therapy. Using both the book and accompanying workbook will encourage other non-therapy professionals like myself to understand and advocate for our important role in this field."Patti Coyle, PATH Intl. advanced instructor, ESMHL, training and education director of High Hopes Therapeutic Riding, Inc.

    Book SynopsisThis book is an update of Paradigms of Personality Assessment by Jerry Wiggins (2003, Guilford), a landmark volume in the personality assessment literature. The first half of Wiggins (2003) described five major paradigms: psychodynamic (as exemplified by the Rorschach and TAT), narrative (interview data), interpersonal (circumplex instruments), multivariate (five-factor instruments), and empirical (MMPI). In the second half of the book, expert representatives of each paradigm interpreted test data from the same patient, Madeline. In this follow-up, personality experts describe innovations in each of the major paradigms articulated by Wiggins since the time of his book, including the advancement of therapeutic assessment, validation of the Rorschach Performance Assessment System, development of a multimethod battery for integrated interpersonal assessment, publication of the Restructured Form of the MMPI-2, and integration of multivariate Five-Factor Model instruments wTrade Review"This remarkable sequel to Wiggins’ (2003) multimethod case study extends the Madeline G. story over a 20-year period in a manner that is edifying and compelling. With a new set of expert collaborators employing updated tests and advances in assessment paradigms, Hopwood and Waugh’s text delivers vital applied learning, illustrating the power of a longitudinal frame of personality assessment that reveals trait consistency, age-related drifts, and new adaptations. It is ultimately person-centered and empathic. This is an essential read for personality assessors and therapists alike."Radhika Krishnamurthy, Psy.D., ABAP, Clinical Psychology Professor, Florida Institute of Technology'Drs. Hopwood and Waugh have assembled a remarkable revisiting of the classic 2003 work by Wiggins, viewing the contemporary status of the original case of Madeline through the lens of different paradigms of personality assessment. Providing both continuity with the original as well as insight into advances in recent years, this volume is an assessment tour de force that should be required reading for anyone wishing to understand of the state of the art in the field.'Leslie C. Morey, Ph.D., George T. and Gladys H. Abell Professor of Psychology, Texas A&M University"Personality Assessment Paradigms and Methods: A Collaborative Reassessment of Madeline G, edited by luminaries Christopher Hopwood and Mark Waugh, demonstrates the power of personality assessment to reveal the inner workings of a person with a depth that is almost startling. This book presents a mosaic of carefully hewn pieces, perspectives yielded from the application of five paradigms for examining psychological assessment data, which, when melded together reveal Madeline in her uniqueness and complexity. I cannot imagine a more captivating way for students to learn about psychological assessment or for more senior assessors to expand their interpretive repertoires. With chapters written by of roster of our most distinguished, talented personality assessors Madeline G. 2.0 is a triumph."Virginia Brabender, PhD, ABPP (cl), Distinguished University Professor (2017-2020), Institute for Graduate Clinical Psychology, Widener University"Destined to become a classic in 21st century personality assessment, Hopwood and Waugh’s Personality Assessment Paradigms and Methods should be on every clinician’s bookshelf. With chapters written by luminaries in our field, this volume blends clinical wisdom with rigorous empirical evidence to illuminate the nuances of human behavior and mental life. Students and seasoned professionals like will benefit from this incisive, engaging book."Robert F. Bornstein, PhD, Professor of Psychology, Adelphi University"With the reassessment of Madeline G almost two decades later, this book re-invigorates Wiggins’ seminal text on personality assessment. It provides an updated, comprehensive overview of how different personality assessment paradigms answer three important questions: "What is personality?" "How do we measure it?" and "What should we measure?" The captivating Madeline G brings each paradigm to life. This is a must-read for practitioners and trainees and belongs on the syllabus of every course for the next generation of personality assessors."Nicole M.

    Book SynopsisThis innovative text utilizes Kohlberg's stages of moral development, demonstrating how they can be effectively applied to couple and marriage therapy.Facilitating moral stage development has been found to improve couples' ability to relate to one another, enhancing trust, transparency, communication, and intimacy. Based on empirical research and Kohlberg's classic stages of development, the book showcases the Conceptual Template, a tool for therapists to guide their clients in thinking more objectively about the reality being experienced, their own subjectivity, and how to work together as a couple to mindfully solve problems. With an extensive Instructional Manual as well as a transcript of the author teaching the Conceptual Template process to a therapist, Moral Development in Couple Therapy illustrates a highly practical approach to counseling that helps couples achieve a more rational level of moral judgment and reasoning.Filled with practicalTrade Review"I have incorporated Dr. Ries’ universal concepts into my practice and have seen the improvements with my clients. This curriculum helps couples in all levels of their marriages for both prevention and intervention in the framework of a critical thinking approach. The book is presented in a structured, useful, and practical manner and is a great tool for the new or seasoned therapist looking to work with couples." – Oudlay Tom, LCSW"I was first introduced to the Conceptual Template nearly 20 years ago, while working with challenged youth at a local high school.

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisWhile transference has been fully described in the literature, countertransference has been viewed as its ugly sibling, and hence there are still not as many reflective accounts or guidance for trainees about how to handle difficult emotions, such as shame and envy and conflict in the consulting room. As a counterpoint, this book provides an integrative guide for therapists on the concept of countertransference, and takes a critical stance on the phenomenon, and theorising, about the so-called countertransference, viewing it as a framework to explore the transformative potential in managing strong emotions and difficult transactions. With an explicit focus on teaching, this book informs therapeutic practice by mixing theories and case studies from the authors'' own clinical and teaching experiences, which involves the reader in case studies, reflection and action points. Countertransference is explored in a wide range of clinical settings, including in reflective practice andTrade Review"As psychological therapists, what do you do with your thoughts and feelings that arise in the consulting room?Are you more 'person centred', only occasionally telling the client how they make you feel?

    Book SynopsisThe autism spectrum presents a range of communication, social, and sensory differences that are challenging for clinicians to address. Family Therapy and the Autism Spectrum provides a guide to conceptualizing those differences and ways to discuss them with clients and their families. Readers are provided with narrative examples illustrating the application of key concepts introduced in the text. These case examples address issues that range across the life cycle, from families with young children to ones with teens who are emerging as adults. Using the techniques learned in this book, clinicians will be able to guide families towards their positive autism narrative.This book also features a visual framework to organize the compelling narrative of each person's autism spectrum pattern of developmental differences or brain style. Using this visual framework and the corresponding descriptive language, clinicians and families can work together to create their autism conTrade ReviewI have known Dr. Monteiro professionally for many years and am delighted that this book permits a wider group of people to learn from her as I am privileged to do. This book is warm, rigorous, and superb in its entirety and speaks to a crucial issue in working with families with autistic children. Both as a clinician and as the parent of a child with autism, I found this book to be immensely informative and directly useful both personally and professionally.—Baer Ackerman, MD, child and adolescent psychiatrist; clinical professor of psychiatry at The University of Texas Southwestern Medical School in Dallas, TX.Congratulations Marilyn Monteiro on yet again creating a world of wisdom in bringing together the complex world of autism, diagnosis, and intervention, and enriching us with your formidable expertise and compassion. You manage to do what most practitioners are unable to, and that is break down the stigma, barriers, and ‘clinical’ language that we have been conditioned to use with clients, schools, and families. Not only do you teach about the human elements of people with autism, but you provide us with the tools and most importantly, respectful language to develop a trusting and respectfully mutual relationships with clients. I highly commend your new title Family Therapy and Autism Spectrum to practitioners, teachers, educators, parents, and siblings, and everybody who wants to learn a ‘new language’ and progressive framework, to work with people with autism spectrum disorder.—Eirini Lammi, consultant psychologist MAPS, Australian Council for Educational Research.Children and families with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) can be one of the most difficult and exhausting populations to treat. These clients are hard to relate to and their parents often feel helpless. Dr. Monteiro concisely and clearly delineates the various aspects of ASD to make it a manageable and treatable disorder. Providing actual transcripts of sessions, she arms the practitioner with language and techniques to empower parents and children. This is a must-read for anyone working with ASD clients.—Ray Levy, PhD, adjunct clinical professor at SMU, clinical psychologist, author of Try and Make Me! and Light Their Fire.Rooted in her extensive knowledge and understanding of the autistic brain style, Dr. Monteiro has brilliantly written Family Therapy and the Autism Spectrum as a guide book for those who help individuals with autism. I was most impressed with her emphasis on the best description of each individual so as to formulate the best prescription for interaction and care.—Peter C. Ray, MD, behavioral & developmental pediatrician.We need to change our perception of autism away from it being a disorder and disability, to having a different sensory perception, learning style and thinking. Marilyn Monteiro encourages clinicians to engage in such a paradigm shift, thus improving their clinical practice.

    Book SynopsisHow is it possible that a phenomenon like psychoanalysis, which has dominated the cultural and intellectual life of the last century in Europe, North and South America, has seemingly had little-to-no resonance in Hong Kong? This book attempts to explain this phenomenon. Addressing the subject from an East to West approach, this book proposes an experience of displacement, as it is argued that the opportunity for psychoanalysis today is not just to be exported to the East, but rather to be re-invented after an encounter with a radically different culture. This encounter allows the Western practitioner to question their experience and highlights the assumptions of Western thought and knowledge. Following this, what remains of psychoanalysis as we know it? How can psychoanalysis be re-thought and re-formed today in a format independent of different theoretical orientations and schools? The book addresses key issues such as: Is there psychoanalysis inTable of Contents1: Two apparently distant worlds: psychoanalysis and Hong Kong 2: How to do research on psychoanalysis, in Hong Kong? 3: The research study 4: Is there psychoanalysis in Hong Kong? 5: Why the (Freudian) unconscious was not discovered in China?
