Taylor & Francis Mad Studies The Basics
Book SynopsisMad Studies: The Basics provides an introductory account of a field that emerged from, and must remain grounded within, community knowledge, activism, and the perspectives of those who have experienced madness and mental health systems.It is a concise text that introduces the field through an exploration of some origins of Mad Studies, as well as two interrelated queries: what does Mad Studies help us understand, and what does Mad Studies help us do? This exploration reveals that Mad Studies is an interdisciplinary, intersectional, and multi-vocal field that demands different answers to the very meaning of the beliefs, behaviours, and bodymind experiences that are currently characterized as being indicative of mental illness. At the heart of Mad Studies is a liberationist desire to resist, transform, and abolish oppressive practices within the systems that create marginalization, and implement responses to madness that are grounded in the collective knowledge of those

Taylor & Francis Practical Applications of Transforming the
Book SynopsisPractical Applications of Transforming the Attachment Relationship to God discusses four distinct attachment relationships to the God of personal spiritual experience and considers how each of these relationships has implications for working with clients in psychotherapy.Geoff Goodman uses Attachment-Informed Psychotherapy (AIP) to explore the connection between a relationship to God and a relationship to caregivers during childhood. By analyzing the attachment relationships evident in the lives of four public figures - human rights activist Coretta Scott King, Jewish Holocaust victim Anne Frank, Alcoholics Anonymous co-founder Bill W., and founder of psychoanalysis Sigmund Freud - this book demonstrates how their attachment relationships with their caregivers during childhood helped to determine the quality of their attachment relationship (or non-relationship) to God. Goodman demonstrates how to use AIP to work with these attachment relationships, formulating a psych

The book demonstrates how clinicians can help patients regain meaning and purpose once again.The authors in these chapters sensitively annotate their therapeutic journeys with their patients, all of whom grapple with extremely difficult emotional conditions. There is much that can be learned about going-on-being from psychoanalysts, who have always worked in the depth of the unconscious psychic dimension. The authors focus on the psychic processes, the core experiences, and the qualities of selfhood that help to move the human soul through despair on to hope and new beginnings. Rich clinical vignettes illustrate these ideas in a way that is sure to help clinicians and other readers face and work with their own and othersâ places of pain and challenge.We have all been shaken by the winds of unsettling social and political change over the past few years; hence this book will appeal to a wide audience. Psychoanalysts, psychologists, psychotherapists, psychiatrists, clinical social workers, counselors, students and others in the helping professions will find this book essential reading, as will members of the wider public who have experienced challenges in their own or their loved oneâs âœgoing-on-beingâ.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Psychoanalysing Ambivalence with Freud and Lacan
Book SynopsisTaking a deep dive into contemporary Western culture, this book suggests we are all fundamentally ambivalent beings. A great deal has been written about how to love to be kinder, more empathic, a better person, and so on. But trying to love without dealing with our ambivalence, with our hatred, is often a recipe for failure. Any attempt, therefore, to love our neighbour as ourselves or even, for that matter, to love ourselves must recognise that we love where we hate and we hate where we love.Psychoanalysis, beginning with Freud, has claimed that to be in two minds about something or someone is characteristic of human subjectivity. Owens and Swales trace the concept of ambivalence through its various iterations in Freudian and Lacanian psychoanalysis in order to question how the contemporary subject deals with its ambivalence. They argue that experiences of ambivalence are, in present-day cultural life, increasingly excised or forecloseTrade Review"Covering everything from Aristotle to zombies to Breaking Bad, Carol Owens and Stephanie Swales have written a masterpiece unlocking the secrets of ambivalence. In Psychoanalysing Ambivalence with Freud and Lacan, they demonstrate that ambivalence is perhaps the central category in social relations. The need for this book is especially urgent today, in an era characterised by its various ways of refusing ambivalence, which are, Owens and Swales make clear, ways of refusing the price of interacting with others altogether. Psychoanalysing Ambivalence with Freud and Lacan speaks to the contemporary political catastrophe better than any book I’ve read." –Todd McGowan, Professor, University of Vermont, USA"Exceptionally wide-ranging, deeply learned and laugh-out-loud funny, this book demonstrates how much psychoanalysis still has to offer when it comes to destabilising our contemporary glorification of strong, stable, and unequivocal rationalities. Yet for all its insistence on the inexorability of ambivalence, there is absolutely no reason for anyone to feel ambivalent about what Swales and Owens have done. Feel confident, stand firm and commit yourself wholeheartedly to this book. You shall be rewarded with countless redemptive questions about all that is dear to you." --Dany Nobus, Professor of Psychoanalytic Psychology, Brunel University LondonIn 1958, Lacan claimed hat many of us "have in our presence someone who […] is truly dead, and has been for some time, dead and mummified […]. Being half-dead is perhaps far more prevalent than we think […]. Isn’t it true that the part of every living being that is half-dead does not leave us a perfectly clear conscience? […] [We defend against] what is half-dead in us, too." Was he, in fact, already talking about the ever-more-ubiquitous zombies that Owens and Swales convincingly associate with our own increasingly unrecognized ambivalence? Reader beware: the dead, the un-dead, vampires, and myriad other uncanny creatures of the contemporary silver screen and television crawl out of the pages of this book, reminding us of those things we’d rather not know about ourselves. Things—including hatred of our neighbour, prejudice, and jealousy—that, as the authors persuasively argue, we are no longer supposed to feel, much less express! Why should we be surprised when they reappear in other forms and contexts? —Bruce Fink, Lacanian psychoanalyst"Covering everything from Aristotle to zombies to Breaking Bad, Carol Owens and Stephanie Swales have written a masterpiece unlocking the secrets of ambivalence.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Transforming Generalized Anxiety
Book SynopsisTransforming Generalized Anxiety: An Emotion Focused Approach examines an approach to treating generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) which attempts to uncover the deeper, underlying emotional experiences that clients are afraid of. It also demonstrates how these painful experiences can be transformed in therapy into a form of emotional resilience by generating experiences of self-compassion and healthy, boundary setting, protective anger.Though most of the literature on treating GAD is dominated by Cognitive Behavior Therapy, this book presents emotion-focused therapy as an alternative treatment of this condition. The emotional resilience this particular approach instils serves as a resource when encountering triggers of emotional vulnerability, but also decreases the client's need to avoid hitherto feared triggers and the emotional experiences they bring. Developed in a series of research studies, and illustrated with reference to case examples, this book offers a pracTrade Review‘Take this journey into the dense jungle of clients’ experience of GAD. This wonderful book on how to work therapeutically with the painful emotions of these clients provides a virtual feast of theory, practice, bottom up research and case examples.

It is written with a strong eye toward education, which is completely fitting because The Second Wave of Positive Psychology is written by scientists who are experts at teaching people how to apply research and theory to improve everyday life.

Gone are the smiley face and the existential critique. At long last, positive psychology has openly embraced the dark side of life not only as an inevitable aspect of the human condition, but also an essential part in optimal functioning and transformation. The authors have skilfully provided a new narrative, buttressed by empirical evidence that engagement with the challenge and distress in life can contribute to our healing, growth and flourishing.

Guilford Publications Invisible Chains
Book SynopsisWhen you are showered with attention, it can feel incredibly romantic and can blind you to hints of problems ahead. But what happens when attentiveness becomes domination? In some relationships, the desire to control leads to jealousy, gaslighting, threats, micromanaging--even physical violence. If you or someone you care about are trapped in a web of coercive control, this book provides answers, hope, and a way out. Lisa Aronson Fontes draws on both professional expertise and personal experience to help you: *Recognize controlling behaviors of all kinds. *Understand why this destructive pattern occurs. *Determine whether you are in danger and if your partner can change. *Protect yourself and your kids. *Find the support and resources you need. *Take action to improve or end your relationship. *Regain your freedom and independence.Trade Review"I wish I'd had this book in my youth, when I was the victim of coercion that whittled away at my self-esteem. This book should be in every women's center, police station, and therapist's office. It cuts through the jargon, gets to the heart of the matter, and provides tools of liberation."--Magdalena Gómez, author of Shameless Woman "The first comprehensive guide to overcoming coercive control. Dr. Fontes provides simple tools to assess your own or a loved one's relationship and offers practical steps to getting free, illustrated with real-life stories. The writing is sharp and evocative and the research is impeccable. A path-breaking work."--Evan Stark, PhD, MSW, Professor Emeritus, Rutgers University School of Public Affairs"An essential read in the #MeToo era. Domestic abuse is not just about physical abuse--it is about power and control, the dynamics of which are not always visible to others. Dr. Fontes makes the invisible visible through case studies and gives practical advice to spot the red flags. An empowering book highlighting that there is life after abuse."--Laura Richards, MSc, founder, Paladin National Stalking Advocacy Service, United Kingdom; co-host, Real Crime Profile podcast "Dr. Fontes makes the dynamics of coercive control understandable to everyone. In plain language and with clear examples, she describes the tactics of domineering individuals and their effects on victims. Dr. Fontes is particularly thoughtful about including diverse couples and families. After reading this book, no one will be able to ask, 'Why does she stay?'"--Juan Carlos Areán, Director, National Latin@ Network for Healthy Families and Communities "This book reveals hidden dimensions behind relationships where one partner is controlled by the other. Dr. Fontes explains the dynamics of coercive control and deciphers the pattern so we can all understand it. Read this book and reclaim your life."--Rabbi Efraim Eisen, marriage, family, and child therapist, Amherst, Massachusetts "This book is gripping and nuanced. It will be extremely helpful to anyone grappling with issues of coercive control. As a therapist with decades of experience, and a person who has been in coercive relationships, I learned a great deal. The stories of women and men from wide-ranging backgrounds pulled me in deeply. Complex, profound ideas are expressed in easy-to-read language. A 'must-have' resource!"--Janine Roberts, EdD, past president, American Family Therapy Academy "Fontes's writing is clear and vividly illustrated with real-life stories from her decades of work helping abuse victims become survivors. Invisible Chains is a hopeful book that shows a way out of coercive control relationships and illustrates the promise of healing and recovery."--Jeffrey L. Edleson, PhD, Dean and Professor, School of Social Welfare, University of California, Berkeley "This powerful and informative resource delivers essential information in a nonjudgmental and sensitive manner. People who work in the legal and criminal justice systems need this book to help keep victims and their children safe. The book is easy to read, but in no way simplistic. I will be placing a copy of this book in our office library as a resource for our attorneys and advocates."--Ismael R. Ozanne, Dane County District Attorney, Madison, Wisconsin"There are illustrations throughout the book, providing insight into the spectra of behaviors that vary from supportive through questionable to outright abusive. The author has included one- and two-sentence sidebars on many pages, so that a reader can leaf through the book and quickly find issues of interest to read in detail. Although the book is written in a linear fashion, the sidebars make it possible to jump around….Some of the best material in the book reflects the author's willingness to include dynamics that are seldom directly addressed in examinations of domestic violence….Fontes empowers readers by providing questionnaires for assessment of controlling relationships and lethality, as well as determination of victims' coping strategies….People trying to make sense of difficult or isolated relationships will find this book useful to explain what is happening to them, their relatives, or their friends. The vignettes throughout the book make it very readable. Although the concept of coercive control might not be familiar to some readers, this book clarifies what it is and provides practical advice for escaping from it."--PsycCRITIQUES, 1/11/2016"Excellent for people who are under someone's coercive control or know someone who might be. The book is also recommended for those who have the opportunity to help victims in their work such as therapists, lawyers, and police officers. (starred review)."--Library Journal, 4/1/2015 "This comprehensive, exceptionally helpful guide to coercive relationships will enable readers to identify abusive patterns, determine safe responses, and plan exit strategies. Fontes (Interviewing Clients across Cultures) has a doctorate in counseling psychology and is an expert in family and domestic violence. Her expertise comes out in every page as she outlines problem behaviors and presents multiple options (leaving, defining new boundaries, determining how to safely stay in a relationship) in a non-judgmental but pragmatic fashion….Fontes has a firm command of both the explanations and descriptions of coercive behavior, as well as how people in such relationships can extricate themselves. An eminently readable book….Readers who want to check their own relationships or keep an eye out for their loved ones will find this to be a fascinating, disturbing read."--Publisher's Weekly, 3/23/2015"This comprehensive, exceptionally helpful guide to coercive relationships will enable readers to identify abusive patterns, determine safe responses, and plan exit strategies.

Messer Professor of Child Psychiatry and Director, Anxiety and Mood Disorders Program, Child Study Center, Yale University School of Medicine "The biggest question facing today's psychotherapists and psychotherapy researchers is how to personalize evidence-based psychotherapy using the available selection of treatment and monitoring tools.

The book describes an innovative case conceptualization method, grounded in Buddhist thinking, that facilitates the targeted delivery of specific CBT interventions.Trade Review"Since the emergence of CBT approaches emphasizing mindfulness, acceptance, and compassion, this book has been crying out to be written. It is unique in offering a detailed and thoughtful analysis of the relationship between Western psychological science and Buddhism’s clear-eyed, sophisticated theory of mind and transformative practices. Lucidly written, the book is enlivened by engaging clinical examples and experiential exercises. This is essential reading for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the ancient tradition that shapes evolving psychological approaches to the relief of suffering."--Melanie Fennell, PhD, Oxford Mindfulness Centre, Department of Psychiatry, University of Oxford, United Kingdom "Make no mistake, this book is not just for Buddhists. The authors provide an articulate overview of Buddhist teachings and their consistency with CBT theory and techniques. Behaviorists will recognize the emphasis on the function of behavior in context, and CBT practitioners will feel at home with the idea that one’s reaction to events--rather than events themselves--are at the root of suffering. I wholeheartedly recommend this book to beginning students or seasoned clinicians to gain further insight into what really matters in our work with clients, and see afresh client experiences that should be the focus of intervention. Unlike many clinical guides, the exercises allow the reader to enhance self-compassion while learning more about providing compassionate help to others."--Christopher R. Martell, PhD, ABPP, Clinic Director, Psychological Services Center, University of Massachusetts, Amherst "For those who wish to go deeper into the foundations of mindfulness, this practitioner guide provides an approachable analysis of its Buddhist underpinnings. It provides psychotherapists with the tools to conceptualize clinical practice from both CBT and Buddhist perspectives."--Beverly E. Thorn, PhD, ABPP, Department of Psychology (Emerita), University of Alabama "This wonderful book should be read by everyone interested in contemporary psychotherapy. It clearly elucidates powerful insights from the rich Buddhist psychological tradition, which help to expand our understanding of third-wave therapies and have value for any psychotherapist. Masterfully crafted guided exercises and reflections give readers a direct experience of the concepts presented. The authors are to be congratulated for their succinct explication and contextualization of Buddhist psychology and its relevance for clinical practice. This is a superb book that offers both practical tools and a scholarly understanding of how we might all work better with our patients' and our own suffering, and cultivate positive emotions and mind states."--Susan E. Abbey, MD, FRCPC, Psychiatrist-in-Chief, Centre for Mental Health; Professor, Department of Psychiatry, University of Toronto, Canada "A 'must read' for CBT practitioners who seek grounding in Buddhist theory as it applies to contemporary psychology. The authors do a very nice job of mapping Buddhist philosophical principles onto the tenets of third-wave therapies. Clinical examples and real-life applications of mindfulness are peppered throughout the book; the audio downloads at the companion website are an added bonus. Readers will surely find helpful additions for their therapeutic toolboxes."--M. Kathleen B. Lustyk, PhD, Department of Psychology, Seattle Pacific University -This book presents an introduction to the concepts of Buddhism for mental health clinicians, especially regarding mindfulness and compassion. It assumes a working knowledge of cognitive-behavioral therapy, and would be a useful tool for CBT therapists looking to incorporate these precepts into their practice….This book presumes that the reader has little prior knowledge of Buddhism, however. This makes it an excellent resource for the Christian clinician, who may not already be familiar with Buddhism as a faith. However, many of the concepts are relatable to the Christian faith, such as the importance of compassion….[The] organization makes the book easy to digest either as a complete read, or in sections.--Journal of Psychology and Christianity, 12/1/2016ƒƒFrom the onset, the discourse focuses on the functional relationship between Buddhist psychology and CBT, hence providing a clear, informative, practical, and accessible guide to applying Buddhist principles to the scientifically tried and tested processes and procedures to predict and influence human behavior. As such, the authors effectively illustrate that evidence-based psychotherapies provide a suitable platform to add new possibilities of improvement for the clinician. The book is essentially a practical roadmap for cognitive-behavioral practitioners and features numerous clinical vignettes, experiential exercises, and guided meditations that can be applied to clinical work and assist practitioners in improving their delivery….The authors conclude with a final overarching clinical example of how to apply the four noble truths and seven factors of enlightenment in a case conceptualization. Each aspect is considered in turn and placed in the context of the client's needs, characteristics, and situation and then reconciled with available CBT tools and techniques. What an effective and powerful way to illustrate the integration of Buddhism and psychology one final time! Overall, the text is certainly one of the, if not the, leading works of the hands-on integration of traditional Buddhist concepts into the clinical practices of modern Western psychotherapy.--PsycCRITIQUES, 5/9/2016Table of ContentsForeword, Robert L.

Guilford Publications Dialectical Behavior Therapy for Binge Eating and
Book SynopsisThis groundbreaking book gives clinicians a new set of tools for helping people overcome binge-eating disorder and bulimia. It presents an adaptation of dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) developed expressly for this population. The treatment is unique in approaching disordered eating as a problem of emotional dysregulation. Featuring vivid case examples and 32 reproducible handouts and forms, the book shows how to put an end to binge eating and purging by teaching clients more adaptive ways to manage painful emotions. Step-by-step guidelines are provided for implementing DBT skills training in mindfulness, emotion regulation, and distress tolerance, including a specially tailored skill, mindful eating. Purchasers get access to a Web page where they can download and print the reproducible handouts and forms in a convenient 8 1/2 x 11 size. See also the related self-help guide, The DBT Solution for Emotional Eating, by Debra L. Safer, Sarah Adler, and Philip C. Masson,Trade Review"Safer et al. have done pioneering work adapting DBT to the treatment of eating disorders. This book provides a comprehensive yet practical and user-friendly guide for clinicians working with these patients. The authors are to be congratulated for providing a mechanism for the dissemination of this empirically validated treatment. Very highly recommended."--James E. Mitchell, MD, The Lee A. Christoferson Chair in Neuroscience Research and Chester Fritz Distinguished University Professor, University of North Dakota School of Medicine and Health Sciences "This well-written book, which has been eagerly awaited by both the DBT and eating disorders communities, is a real gem to add to any clinician's shelf. It will be equally useful to DBT-trained clinicians and to others interested in empirically validated treatments for bulimia and binge-eating disorder. The book has immense instructional potential. Session-by-session descriptions of the treatment will help trainees feel as though they are 'doing it right,' even with their first patient."--Lucene Wisniewski, PhD, Clinical Director, Cleveland Center for Eating Disorders "DBT has shown promise for treating disordered eating, but a detailed manual that describes how to adapt DBT protocols for this population has been sorely needed by clinicians and treatment researchers. Safer, Telch, and Chen, three distinguished experts, have succeeded in meeting this important need."--Daniel Le Grange, PhD, Benioff UCSF Professor in Children's Health, Department of Psychiatry, University of California, San Francisco; Emeritus Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Neuroscience, The University of Chicago "This book will be a helpful resource for clinicians who treat eating disorders but who are not yet trained in DBT, as well as those who are already familiar with DBT. It offers clear instructions for meeting the treatment needs of people with bulimia and binge-eating disorder. Clinicians can readily pick up and use this manual with their clients."--Shari Manning, PhD, President, Behavioral Tech, LLC; Department of Psychology, University of Washington - The authors present a well-written and practical approach to the treatment of bulimia nervosa and binge eating. They cover rationale for the use of DBT in this population and clearly define assessment and implementation of the skills of Mindfulness, Emotion Regulation, and Distress Tolerance. Each of these skills has an excellent description of how to present material in a group format, including potential exercises....The authors also interject excellent case material throughout the book that helps the reader understand how the strategies can be successfully administered. Additionally, the final chapters review the potential for DBT with eating disorders such as anorexia nervosa and the future directions of this intervention. Overall, this is a highly readable and well-organized book that helps those interested in treating bulimia nervosa and binge eating disorder to develop new skills in treatment. --Journal of Clinical Psychiatry, 5/22/2009ƒƒ A much needed resource for professionals treating eating disorders. It very clearly details another effective, evidence-based treatment for BED and BN. Those therapists with a firm understanding of CBT and DBT could use this book to adapt their skills to treat clients with eating disorders. Those who already treat eating disorders could, with a commitment to understanding all of the skills and techniques of DBT, use this book to augment their armamentarium and improve their efficacy in treating this difficult population. --Journal of Psychiatric Practice, 5/22/2009ƒƒ The book aims to be useful to both therapists trained in DBT with little or no experience of working with eating disorders and therapists working with eating disorders with no experience of DBT....Each chapter suggests homework practice and therapist interventions, with an array of handouts and worksheets to support and enhance the work being done in therapy. The book offers useful case study accounts, which illustrate the model and its techniques and structure. This book is a must-have for anyone working with eating disordered behaviours. --Addiction Today, 5/22/2009ƒƒ Well written and easy to read, and is a useful resource for practitioners, researchers, and students. In particular, this book will be helpful for those who have experience with DBT but have little knowledge of eating disorders, in addition to those who are seasoned in treating eating disorders but are not trained in DBT....The step-by-step guidelines, discussion points, and case examples are refreshing and informative. The authors should be congratulated for staying adherent to DBT while also adapting the skills discussed and the handouts to be used, targeting them for individuals with BED or BN....A refreshing and extremely well-written book....The combination of illustrative case examples, experiential exercises to increase mindful eating, discussion points, and handouts, serves to help clinicians actually apply this treatment, not just read about it. I highly recommend this book for clinicians looking to apply DBT to clients with binge-eating disorder or bulimia, as this groundbreaking work is a valuable merger of DBT and treatment for eating disorders. --PsycCRITIQUES, 5/22/2009Table of ContentsIntroduction 1.

If only all reading/literacy instructors, university professors of education, school administrators, and speech–language pathologists were to read, digest, and apply the insights in this book, I am certain that 'at-risk' children would become significantly better readers, and that the literacy skills of all children would be enhanced as well. This volume is loaded with evidence-based information, but it also is extremely readable."--Barbara Williams Hodson, PhD, Professor Emerita of Communication Sciences and Disorders, Wichita State University "Gillon addresses theoretical and practical aspects of the important role of phonological awareness in becoming literate, the basic right of every individual.

Valerie L. Gaus shows how to adapt the proven techniques of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) to build clients' social and coping skills, facilitate self-acceptance, and treat comorbid anxiety and depression. Illustrated with detailed case examples, the book is grounded in cutting-edge knowledge about information-processing differences in ASD. It gives clinicians critical guidance for conceptualizing these clients' presenting problems and optimizing the effectiveness of interventions. Reproducible worksheets can be downloaded and printed in a convenient 8 1/2 x 11 size. First edition title: Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for Adult Asperger Syndrome. New to This Edition *Explains the significant terminology changes in DSM-5 and their impact.Trade Review"The second edition of this classic book will be invaluable to clinicians working with adults on the spectrum. It provides a treasure trove of materials to learn from and use in clinical practice. Gaus does a truly fantastic job of integrating research with a patient-centered approach to skill building. The new coverage of 'third-wave' CBT approaches is extremely helpful."--Fred R. Volkmar, MD, Irving B. Harris Professor, Child Study Center, Yale University School of Medicine "CBT has long been a preferred therapy for adults on the spectrum--unlike some other approaches, CBT is respectful of who we (spectrumfolk) are as people. In this second edition, Gaus updates her wonderful book with important new knowledge. This book is a manual for success for any clinician who works with spectrum adults."--Michael John Carley, Founder, GRASP (Global and Regional Asperger Syndrome Partnership); school consultant; author of Asperger's from the Inside Out "Any clinician who treats adults for anxiety and mood disorders should read this book. It helps us identify individuals with ASD and provide them with skillful care that is responsive to their unique information-processing styles. Students, trainees, and clinicians at all levels of experience can learn from this valuable volume. Gaus has a deep understanding of individuals with ASD. And she’s an excellent teacher, providing clear explanations illustrated with examples drawn from her rich clinical experience."--Jacqueline B. Persons, PhD, Director, Oakland Cognitive Behavior Therapy Center "This is the comprehensive and essential guide to understanding and treating this underserved population. Drawing on empirical literature as well as decades of clinical experience, Gaus shares a vast wealth of knowledge, and her compassion for the struggles of clients with ASD is palpable. Gaus shows clinicians how to incorporate treatment components specific to ASD while developing individualized case formulations and using well-established CBT interventions. Her multiple case examples are spot-on and offer concrete, practical clinical guidance. This book is well organized, user friendly, and easy to follow. Since clients seek help for an array of clinical concerns, ASD-related problems may not be immediately evident, making the book highly relevant for all clinicians and trainees."--Joan Davidson, PhD, Co-Director, San Francisco Bay Area Center for Cognitive Therapy; Assistant Clinical Professor, University of California, Berkeley -An invaluable guide….This second edition is a monumental, scholarly addition to the field of autism. This timely book connects the dots between clinical research findings and the resulting modified practical application of traditional cognitive behavioral therapy for adults with autism. This edition is poised to be the premier go-to reference for better understanding how providers in the mainstream mental health community and the autism spectrum community can provide effective psychotherapy to adults with ASD. I highly recommend this as a must-read for all mental health practitioners who come into contact with adult ASD patients and wish to learn more about ASD and the benefits of employing modified cognitive behavioral therapy techniques with this underserved patient population. *****!--Doody's Review Service, 4/12/2019ƒƒGaus has made a major contribution....Using case studies from her many years of research and practice, she offers the practicing clinician a readable and helpful window into work with this challenging population....Gaus' frequent use of transcriptions of parts of sessions, anecdotes, and multiple case examples illustrate her ideas and keep us engaged.

Guilford Publications Treating Adolescents with Substance Use Disorders
Book SynopsisFrom a leading addiction specialist, this highly practical book explores what works in treating adolescents. Oscar G. Bukstein answers the clinician's vital question: What do I do now? He describes best practices for enhancing youths' motivation for change, teaching a variety of recovery skills, and implementing parent management training and parentâadolescent problem solving. The book covers ways to foster a prosocial peer network and to address mental health problems that co-occur with substance use disorders (SUDs). Clinicians can combine the strategies into an integrated approach or pick and choose depending on the needs of individual clients. Reproducible handouts and worksheets can be downloaded and printed in a convenient 8 1/2 x 11 size.Trade Review"Treating adolescents with substance use disorders is complex and challenging. This book empowers clinicians to work successfully with this difficult-to-treat population. Bukstein's practical guidance reflects the latest research as well as strong clinical acumen developed through decades of experience. Engaging, easy to follow, and highly informative, the book offers a solid understanding of what to expect when working with youth and their families, and helps clinicians forecast problems and troubleshoot common pitfalls."--Robert Miranda Jr., PhD, Department of Psychiatry and Human Behavior, Brown University "Bukstein is to be commended for this very useful clinical guide. The book includes succinct yet comprehensive coverage of risk factors, screening measures, and evidence-based prevention and treatment modalities for adolescents with substance use disorders. Drawing from his extensive clinical experience and current research, Bukstein identifies core principles and guides clinicians through the key components of effective treatment. He provides step-by-step guidelines for using motivational interviewing to enhance treatment engagement and goal setting; identifying triggers for use; and teaching problem-solving skills and coping strategies to promote healthy lifestyle choices. I know this volume will find a home on my bookshelf."--Paula D. Riggs, MD, Professor and Director, Division of Substance Dependence, Department of Psychiatry, University of Colorado School of Medicine "Bukstein distills decades of clinical experience and scholarly activities into this comprehensive guide. All trainees and clinicians interested in starting to work with (or improving their effectiveness with) teens with drug or alcohol problems will find this book an excellent resource. It provides a reference for screening, assessment, brief intervention, and more in-depth treatment planning, whether in specialized addictions treatment settings or general practice. In addition to reviewing the research and logic informing clinical interventions, the book presents step-by-step, evidence-based treatment plans for use with adolescents and their parents; reproducible tools; and helpful examples."--Duncan B. Clark, MD, PhD, Department of Psychiatry, University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine "From one of the field's most distinguished scholars, this is a gem of a resource for those of us in the clinical trenches with adolescents with substance use disorders. The book provides a most thoughtful review of evidence-based treatment strategies, integrated with state-of-the-art clinical insights. I particularly appreciate the way Bukstein highlights common elements across diverse effective treatments. The case examples provide a rich context and enhance the book’s relevance. This timely work is a 'must read' for the range of service providers working with teenagers with drug involvement and co-occurring problems."--Ken C.

Guilford Publications ParentLed CBT for Child Anxiety
Book SynopsisParents can play a strong role in helping their children overcome anxiety disorders--given the right tools. This innovative, research-based book shows clinicians how to teach parents cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) techniques to use with their 5- to 12-year-old. Session-by-session guidelines are provided for giving parents the skills to promote children's flexible thinking and independent problem solving, help them face specific fears, and tackle accompanying difficulties, such as sleep problems and school refusal. User-friendly features include illustrative case studies, sample scripts, advice on combining face-to-face sessions with telephone support, and pointers for overcoming roadblocks. Several parent handouts can be downloaded and printed in a convenient 8 1/2 x 11 size.Trade Review"This book fills an important gap by helping therapists to empower parents with the skills and confidence to help their anxious child. Creswell and her coauthors give us a science-based, engaging, extremely practical book that is underpinned by years of experience. Detailed exercises and case examples ensure that any therapist will deliver consistent results. The strategies in this book will change the lives of children with anxiety disorders and their families."--Ronald M. Rapee, PhD, Distinguished Professor of Psychology and founding director, Center for Emotional Health, Macquarie University, Australia "Creswell et al. have harnessed their collective talent and considerable clinical experience in this eminently readable, highly useful guide. Unlike most treatments for anxious children--which are directed primarily, if not exclusively, to the children themselves--this approach is oriented toward the parents. By actively and collaboratively engaging the parents, the clinician can bypass many barriers to effective treatment with children. The approach is developmentally sensitive, contextually informed, evidence based, and low intensity (four of the eight sessions can be conducted by telephone). This is an impressive book with considerable potential."--Thomas H. Ollendick, PhD, ABPP, University Distinguished Professor, Department of Psychology, Virginia Tech "Creswell and colleagues present an efficient and effective CBT-based program that enables parents to help their children overcome the distress and functional impairment associated with problematic anxiety. Clearly written and well organized, this book guides providers at all levels through each step of the treatment process, from the initial assessment through relapse prevention. It contains a multitude of useful charts, figures, and case examples."--John C. Piacentini, PhD, ABPP, Director, Childhood OCD, Anxiety, and Tic Disorders Program, UCLA Semel Institute for Neuroscience and Human Behavior "A succinct, incredibly practical, and well-written book. Therapists get knowledge and tools for working effectively with parents of children struggling with anxiety. I hope that many parents have the opportunity to experience this empowering approach."--Wendy K. Silverman, PhD, ABPP, Alfred A. Messer Professor of Child Psychiatry and Director, Anxiety and Mood Disorders Program, Child Study Center, Yale University School of Medicine "When I teach Introduction to Child and Family Therapy, one of the first questions that comes up is how to work with parents. This book is the best resource for students seeking answers to this question. It is so clear, scientifically grounded, and clinically useful that I strongly recommend it as a supplemental text and a resource for clinicians at all levels. Teaching parents how to implement the skills that therapists have been studying for years will expand the reach of our efforts with anxious children, and, most probably, will improve our outcomes."--Eduardo L. Bunge, PhD, Clinical Psychology PhD Program, Palo Alto University "I can't wait to use this book in my practice with parents! The authors present a clear, step-by-step, evidence-based guide for therapists. With this book, practitioners can teach parents (who often believe erroneously that reassuring their anxious child will help) to foster their child’s independence, 'curiosity' about his or her worries, and testing of possible solutions. Parents will see their children gain perspective, mastery, and confidence as their fears decrease."--Cynthia G.

Guilford Publications ADHD in Adolescents
Book SynopsisBringing together leading authorities, this much-needed volume synthesizes current knowledge about the nature, impact, and treatment of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in the crucial developmental period of adolescence. Contributors explore the distinct challenges facing teens with ADHD as they navigate intensifying academic demands; new risks in the areas of driving, substance use, and romantic relationships; and co-occurring mental health problems. Best practices in clinical assessment are presented. Chapters on treatment--several of which include illustrative case examples--review interventions targeting motivation, executive functioning, and homework problems, as well as applications of cognitive-behavioral therapy and mindfulness. The book also examines medication issues specific to this age group.Trade Review"Kudos to Dr. Becker and his colleagues for providing readers with a volume of tremendous significance….The authors represent a 'who’s who' list of experts….This book will be the desk reference on the topic of adolescents with ADHD for clinicians, researchers, and graduate students for years to come."--from the Foreword by Russell A. Barkley, PhD, ABPP, ABCN, Department of Psychiatry, Virginia Commonwealth University School of Medicine "An exceptionally valuable and useful book! I learned a tremendous amount, not only about ADHD in adolescence, but also about ADHD in general. The chapter authors were wisely chosen and they have delivered remarkably good chapters on every key topic. I strongly recommend this work to anyone interested in ADHD."--Benjamin B. Lahey, PhD, Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Neuroscience, University of Chicago "Becker has assembled the definitive resource on ADHD in adolescence. The volume blends conceptual, empirical, and developmental knowledge, presenting both basic science and intervention perspectives. It is rare to find an edited volume that adequately addresses the multiple domains (from emotion and executive functioning to family and peer relationships) and units of analysis required to understand the complexity of ADHD. Graduate students, advanced trainees, scientists, clinicians, policymakers, and educators all will benefit from the state-of-the-art expertise and rigor offered here. I have no doubt that this book will make an enduring contribution to the field."--Steve S. Lee, PhD, Department of Psychology, University of California, Los Angeles “Adolescents have been relatively neglected by those of us who study ADHD. Becker aims to correct that problem with this first-rate volume that brings together many luminaries in the field. The book gives readers a valuable foundation in developmental psychopathology and then provides practical, clinically relevant information. From sleep disorders to substance use, meditation to medications, you will learn how the context of adolescence should change your approach to ADHD. This book is suitable for teaching graduate students, interns, and residents, and will be of great benefit as a practitioner reference.”--Stephen V. Faraone, PhD, Distinguished Professor and Vice Chair for Research, Department of Psychiatry, State University of New York Upstate Medical University “The assembled international experts contributing to this work provide an important compendium of up-to-date research and practice information. Each chapter describes what is known about ADHD in a specific area, as well as related biological, contextual, and individual influences on adolescent development. Importantly, throughout the volume, ADHD also is treated as a factor influencing adolescent development. A particular strength is the coverage of multiple developmental contexts, such as schools, families, and peer relationships, as well as the emphasis on adolescent mental health and adjustment. Thematic and well organized, this book will be very useful for researchers, practicing professionals, and graduate students in child and adolescent psychology and developmental pediatrics. It is an excellent text for use in graduate-level classes in developmental psychopathology or interventions and supports for adolescents.”--Gary Stoner, PhD, Department of Psychology, University of Rhode Island-ADHD in Adolescents is a terrific resource for professionals who strive to better understand what can be a tumultuous period….Students, school psychologists, and clinical psychologists will find this book useful. Any chapter would be a welcome supplement to a graduate-level developmental psychopathology text, and eager learners will appreciate the extensive reference lists. School psychologists may be especially drawn to information on academic functioning and homework problems, whereas clinical psychologists may value chapters on medication adherence and ADHD diagnosis….The writing is consistently engaging, and each chapter is detailed enough to inform while avoiding longwindedness. Tables, diagrams, and case examples are embedded throughout the book….For professionals, the breadth of information presented, the ease of reading, and this topic's importance make ADHD in Adolescents a go-to resource.--NASP Communiqué, 3/1/2021Table of Contents1.

Guilford Publications Cognitive Behavior Therapy for Adolescents with
Book SynopsisThis state-of-the-art guide provides a powerful transdiagnostic approach for treating adolescent eating disorders (anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge-eating disorder, and others) in either outpatient or inpatient settings. It describes how enhanced cognitive behavior therapy (CBT-E)--the gold-standard treatment for adult eating disorders--has been systematically adapted and tested with younger patients. With a strong motivational focus, CBT-E gives the adolescent a key role in decision making. The book presents session-by-session guidelines for assessing patients, determining whether CBT-E is appropriate, developing case conceptualizations, conducting individualized interventions, addressing medical issues, and involving parents. User-friendly features include case vignettes and reproducible forms; purchasers get access to a webpage where they can download and print the reproducible materials in a convenient 8 1/2 x 11 size. CBT-E is recognized as a best practicTrade Review"This is an important book. It fills two major gaps. For clinicians, it provides a detailed guide to the treatment of any form of eating disorder seen in adolescents. For researchers, it specifies for the first time how this empirically supported treatment, 'enhanced cognitive behavior therapy' (CBT-E), should be implemented with young patients....Too often, treatment manuals are written by treatment 'gurus' or researchers who engage in little or no ongoing face-to-face clinical work....This book is entirely different, as it has been written by two experienced practitioners, both of whom are active clinically. The result is a truly useful guide."--from the Foreword by Christopher G. Fairburn, OBE, DM, FMedSci, FRCPsych, Wellcome Principal Research Fellow and Professor of Psychiatry, University of Oxford, United Kingdom "Eating and weight issues in adolescence can be disabling and can have lifetime effects. Written by two outstanding clinician-scholars, this very accessible book shows how to deliver empirically based, state-of-the-art treatment that is tailored to the individual. With thoughtfulness and care, the authors capture the complexities of describing eating disorders in adolescents and discuss ways to navigate the thorny issues of patient and family engagement. An important book."--Kelly D. Brownell, PhD, Robert L. Flowers Professor of Public Policy and Professor of Psychology and Neuroscience, Duke University "Dalle Grave and Calugi, two respected CBT experts, have produced a vital manual that walks the clinician through engaging and treating adolescents with eating disorders. This is a well-written book that describes how to deliver CBT-E to younger patients in a flexible, individualized, and effective manner. An indispensable resource for clinicians and supervisors, the volume provides clear, practical guidance rooted in emerging scientific evidence."--Carlos M. Grilo, PhD, Director, Yale Program for Obesity, Weight, and Eating Research, Yale University School of Medicine "Treating adolescents with eating disorders remains a significant challenge, in part because few treatments have garnered efficacy data that promote confidence in their application. With this detailed, comprehensive treatment manual, Dalle Grave and Calugi take the field a significant step forward. These authors have been at the forefront of the development of a transdiagnostic application of CBT-E for adolescent eating disorders, and this manual will be a most valuable tool for clinicians as well as clinical researchers."--Daniel Le Grange, PhD, Benioff UCSF Professor in Children’s Health, Department of Psychiatry, University of California, San Francisco; Emeritus Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Neuroscience, The University of Chicago-With case vignettes and sample dialogues, this book provides a seamless and structured process for a therapist to follow….Both authors are internationally renowned for their expertise in the field of eating disorders.--Doody's Review Service, 04/27/2020Table of ContentsForeword, Christopher G.

Dr. Hinshaw delivers up-to-date facts on what ADHD is, why symptoms often appear differently in girls than in boys, why girls with ADHD behave the way they do, how to get an accurate diagnosis, and what treatments are most effective.

As a leading expert in this area for decades, he skillfully navigates many of the controversies and misunderstandings while offering families state-of-the-art knowledge. While written for parents, the book is also valuable reading for professionals. Highly recommended!"--Timothy E.

It resonates with our daughter's experiences so far, offers fantastic conversation starters for our family, and leaves us hopeful about the future.

Guilford Publications Motivational Interviewing and CBT
Book SynopsisProviding tools to enhance treatment of any clinical problem, this book shows how integrating motivational interviewing (MI) and cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) can lead to better client outcomes than using either approach on its own. The authors demonstrate that MI strategies are ideally suited to boost client motivation and strengthen the therapeutic relationship, whether used as a pretreatment intervention or throughout the course of CBT. User-friendly features include extensive sample dialogues, learning exercises for practitioners, and 35 reproducible client handouts that can be downloaded and printed in a convenient 8 1/2 x 11 size. See also Motivational Interviewing, Fourth Edition: Helping People Change and Grow, by William R. Miller and Stephen Rollnick, and Building Motivational Interviewing Skills, Second Edition: A Practitioner Workbook, by David B. Rosengren. This book is in the Applications of Motivational Interviewing series, edTrade Review"With this book, the integration of MI and CBT takes a leap forward. Behavior therapists have, I believe, paid far too little attention to the substantial impact of interpersonal skills and the therapeutic relationship in shaping treatment engagement, retention, adherence, and outcome….Person-centered advocates could, in turn, be faulted for paying too little attention to empirical science in recent decades….Perhaps MI and CBT are like oil and water. My junior chemistry project in high school was a study of emulsifying agents that make it possible to blend oil and water. It was a portent of things to come. This book is an emulsifier."--from the Foreword by William R. Miller, PhD, Emeritus Distinguished Professor of Psychology and Psychiatry, The University of New Mexico; codeveloper of MI "An excellent resource. Rightly noting that CBT is hard work, the authors provide concrete strategies to capitalize on clients' own reasons for changing, while also avoiding the power struggles that can arise. As a clinical supervisor, I will recommend this book to my trainees as essential reading."--Shannon Sauer-Zavala, PhD, Center for Anxiety and Related Disorders and Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences, Boston University "This clear, concise, practical guide arms the clinician with the background required to intelligently integrate MI principles into a CBT formulation and apply MI techniques alongside CBT techniques in treatment. The authors have significant expertise, which they share in a highly readable, usable format. The book is filled with helpful illustrative examples and guides the reader through the steps without being overwhelming. A 'must have' for any clinician who wishes to apply MI in the context of CBT."--Christine Purdon, PhD, CPsych, Professor and Director of Clinical Training, Department of Psychology, University of Waterloo, Canada "Integrating MI into CBT is one of the most exciting and promising areas for improving the treatment of psychological disorders, but answers to questions of 'How?', 'When?', and 'How much?' were difficult to find until now. Naar and Safren present know-how and guidance to help the clinician conceptualize and effectively work with real-world clients who are struggling with competing motivations and fluctuating ambivalence and commitment. Packed with essential learning activities and reproducible tools, this book is an essential contribution to any mental health practitioner’s library. I will be recommending it as a text for our introductory doctoral-level 'how to do psychotherapy' unit or one of our more specialized advanced CBT units."--Peter J. Norton, PhD, Cairnmillar Institute, Melbourne, Australia “This is a unique contribution to the literature on CBT training and practice. There are excellent clinical examples and exercises targeting collaborative communication that would be extremely useful for instructors to review with early-career clinicians. The text addresses conflicts between CBT and MI and suggests ways to resolve them. The guidelines and activities it gives practitioners and trainees are accessible and clear.”--Donna M. Sudak, MD, Professor of Psychiatry, Senior Associate Training Director, and Director of Psychotherapy Training, Drexel University College of Medicine -This book integrates two excellent therapeutic approaches, motivational interviewing and CBT.
