Taylor & Francis Ltd Helping ChildrenBecomethe Heroes of their Stories
Book SynopsisWhether it's the anxiety of social isolation, the loss of routine or a breakdown in formal educational support, the COVID-19 pandemic has affected children in countless ways. Teachers, therapists and parents frequently find themselves ill-equipped to help children struggling with the difficult feelings that these situations, and others like them, give rise to. This essential guide provides a therapeutic toolkit to enable children to tell their stories and to regain some control over their mental health and wellbeing. The toolkit introduces a therapeutic story template, alongside guided support and examples focusing on three therapeutic skill sets: active listening, reflection and handling questions. Designed for use with children both individually and in class groups, the storytelling toolkit will enable children to see themselves as the hero of their own story, and life, and to reinstate a sense of optimism and self-empowerment in the face of the pandemic challenge. TTrade Review "Armed with these resources we will find ourselves with the capability to make a positive difference to the emotional wellbeing of pupils and children and prepare them for the lives that lie ahead of them. What I hope you take away from this book is the knowledge that we can make a positive difference for our pupils and children. What I know you will take away for sure, is inspiration to move forward, and courage to take the ‘right’ next steps in your learning environment to avoid breakdowns and further trauma to the child and those around them." - Fiona Clark, also known as @spiralglass, has been a teacher for over two decades and is the author of several books"Children have been living through a unique time in history & resources to help them thrive are hugely important to their recovery & mental health. ‘Helping Children Become the Heroes of their Stories’ by Amanda Seyderhelm is a wonderful book to empower teachers, practitioners, therapists, and parents with an indispensable guide to help children who are struggling. Bursting with practical, sensible and tried and tested activities this toolkit for helping children understand, express & process their own experiences will bring back a sense of hope for the future." - Sue Atkins, Parenting Broadcaster, Speaker & Author of ‘The Can Do Kid’s Journal: Discover Your Confidence Superpower’"In Helping Children Become the Heroes of their Stories, Amanda Seyderhelm has written a book that is both very practical and very inspiring. She offers many simple and effective methods of helping children and at the same time she envisions where the child is on the heroes journey, the journey to selfhood […] Her valuing intuition on the part of the therapist sets this book apart from many others in the field." - Dennis McCarthy, Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, Director of Metamorfos Institute, and author of "If You Turned into a Monster" Transformation through Play: A Body-Centred Approach to Play Therapy"This book will be a very useful addition to the creative therapist’s bookshelf. It provides a system of working which is appropriate and will enable the child to externalise difficult feelings and begin to make sense of their narrative […] Amanda’s book gives us hope that through awareness of the adversities we human beings experience and our incredible resilience and drive for recovery we will overcome difficult days- but we need empathy not judgement, we need authenticity in our relationships with others – and we need to be allowed time for creative play!" - Kate Macairt, accredited play therapist, sand play therapist, clinical supervisor and course director teaching play therapy"Amanda Seyderhelm has produced an incredibly useful and effective resource that will be of interest to anyone working with children and young people who have experienced trauma such as bereavement. The book is full of practical and creative ideas for using various forms of play as a way of supporting children who are struggling and is impeccably referenced, displaying the author's depth of knowledge in this vital area. That said, this is far from being an academic book. What comes though on every page is the compassion the author feels for these children who have been through so much in their young lives. But this is a compassion that comes from a place of complete respect for the children and their feelings. We are not there to put their worlds right. We are there to help them as they come to terms with those feelings. This might be more painful in the short term (for adult and child) but it is what is needed for them to grow and mature as emotionally healthy adults. This is an important, useful and profoundly compassionate book." - Ian Gilbert, Founder, Independent Thinking"This is an incredibly practical piece of work which will help schools scaffold a structure aimed at overcoming adversity and to build resilience. It is not merely a book for post-pandemic times, but one which correctly identifies 'the new normal' as one of our current societal challenges, but one that will be added to as the trauma associated with rising cost of living bites in coming months. "If you are serious about trauma informed practice, about the impact of Adverse Childhood Experiences and on the theories and practicalities around attachment, this book deserves a place not on your shelf, but on your desk, well-thumbed, dog-eared and marked with highlighters and sticky notes. It is a text to return to again and again." - Andrew Cowley, author of The Wellbeing Curriculum and The Wellbeing Toolkit"The book is written with considerable sensitivity and thoughtfulness, offering and deconstructing tangible case studies that remind readers wishing to adopt and adapt its suggestions that these - like any approaches - need to be used with care and intelligence, offering a pathway but not a formula. As someone currently supporting work on Creating “Schools of Recovery”, though engaged in a different but complementary practice, I find it offers invaluable challenges and significant, substantial food for thought." - Ben Ballin, Ed.

Theory-specific information on diagnosis, psychopharmacology, spirituality, and gender issues is also discussed, and there is an added emphasis on diversity and social justice issues. The book is accompanied by instructor Trade Review"This is a thorough and accessible text that addresses both the development of the major theories of counseling and psychotherapy and their contemporary formulations in theory and practice. A particularly valuable aspect of the book is the clear and thoughtful chapter on integral counseling, an approach often ignored in similar texts. I recommend this book highly."Richard E. Watts, PhD, LPC-S, Texas State University System Regents’ professor and distinguished professor of counseling at Sam Houston State University "The authors provide a text that makes theory accessible and practical by placing each theory into the Weltanschauung of its time, providing a concise yet comprehensive overview of each model’s understanding of personality and personality change and illustrating through case material each theory’s application. They could well have titled their book Theoretical and Applied Models of Counseling and Psychotherapy. This is a readable, useful, integrative approach."Jerome Wagner, PhD, professor, Loyola University, Chicago"Fall, Holden, and Marquis’s textbook offers students and professionals a thorough exploration of counseling theories. Theoretical orientation is the foundation of strong clinical practice, and the authors break down complex theories into easily understandable concepts, easing the transition from theory to practice. There is not another textbook that I would use to teach theories to my students."Stephanie Eberts, PhD, assistant professor of professional practice, Louisiana State UniversityTable of Contents1.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Compassion Focused Group Therapy for University
Book SynopsisCompassion focused therapy (CFT) articulates an approach that faces suffering head-on to understand, alleviate, and prevent suffering in ourselves and in others. Compassion Focused Group Therapy for University Counseling Centers is a one-of-a-kind 12-session manual for conducting compassion focused group therapy on university campuses with students presenting a diverse set of complex mental health concerns. Beginning with suggested readings designed to enrich understanding of the principles covered, each module presents psychoeducation interventions, engaging intrapersonal and interpersonal exercises, and process-oriented instructions. Modules can be followed session-by-session or adapted according to the needs of the group. Eye-catching handouts are included at the end of the modules to help leaders provide visual representation of the themes discussed in each session. This manual is designed to be used by licensed clinicians and should be used in conjunction wTrade Review"In this companion set of Compassion Focused Group Therapy guides for group facilitators and for group participants, the authors have created a remarkably accessible resource that promotes deeply humane, high quality clinical care. The manuals are written with the wisdom of experienced group therapists utilizing a structured, well- defined and well- researched model of compassion focused care. These therapy guides address the implementation gap that so often exists between theory and clinical practice in ways that are particularly relevant for today’s group therapists and their clients." —Molyn Leszcz, MD, FRCPC, CGP, DFAGPA, professor of Psychiatry, University of Toronto, president, the American Group Psychotherapy Association. "This manual and workbook is a tour de force! Compassion focused therapy (CFT) is a powerful, multi-dimensional, scientifically-based approach to managing difficult emotions. The authors have brilliantly condensed CFT into twelve, easily digestible modules. This could be the most valuable course a student takes in college—learning to regulate emotions by cultivating a compassionate mind. Highly recommended for young and old!" —Christopher Germer, PhD, lecturer (part-time), Harvard Medical School, co-author, Teaching the Mindful Self-Compassion Program. "Compassion Focused Therapy embodies the major tenets of the APA-accredited group psychology and group psychotherapy specialty. It gives essential instruction for leaders and members, presenting the ideas in well written text with great graphics. This program takes the practitioner through the steps and issues central to initiating, managing, and practicing group therapy in college counseling settings in a manner that lines up nicely with the guidelines of the group specialty." —Joshua M. Gross, PhD, ABPP, director of Group Programs, licensed psychologist. "Highly recommended are the manual and workbook for Compassion Focused Group Therapy for University Counseling Centers. These present a sequence of group sessions that clinicians will find as excellent guidance for group facilitation and members will help structure their own personal development. The authors are to be commended for developing these evidence- based publications that are well researched, written and are shown to benefit group to grow, develop and heal." — Nina W. Brown, EdD, professor and eminent scholar, Old Dominion University; distinguished fellow, American Group Psychotherapy Association; fellow American Psychological Association. "The last 20 years has seen an explosion of research into the physiological and psychological effects of compassion training, and how to make compassion central to psychotherapeutic endeavours. In this beautifully written and easily accessible work internationally renowned group researcher and psychotherapist Gary Burlingame and his team outline a group modular approach for young people attending University with mental health difficulties. With their already excellent research findings and programme, all group therapist will gain enormously from the wisdoms, clarity and guidance offered here." — Professor Paul Gilbert, OBE, author of The Compassionate Mind (2009); Compassion Focused Therapy (2010), and president of the Compassionate Mind Foundation. "This manual skillfully blends the content and process driven elements of short term CFT groups, whilst offering creativity and concrete guidance. This is an absolute gift to our CFT community and will be essential reading for all those Compassion Focused Therapists who are motivated to explore the affiliative possibilities of group based CFT. This manual also reflects the wealth of experience and knowledge in groupwork practice brought by the authors." — Kate Lucre, PhD, psychotherapist, Birmingham and Solihull Mental Trust."Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT) is a powerful approach to mental health. It puts compassion as the central therapeutic target, with research showing it helps improve neurophysiology, mental health, interpersonal relations and pro-social behaviour with a diverse range of difficulties. This new manual is an excellent guide to implementing group CFT. The authors have provided exceptional guidance, clear dialogue examples, insightful graphics and metaphors that bring key CFT concepts to life. This manual will transform the way you deliver CFT." — James N. Kirby, PhD, senior lecturer and clinical psychologist. Table of Contents1. Compassion and the Tricky Brain 2.

Taylor & Francis Ltd A Practical Resource for Supporting Childrens
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….

Taylor & Francis Socioculturally Attuned Family Therapy
Book SynopsisSocioculturally Attuned Family Therapy, 2nd edition, is a fully updated and essential textbook that addresses the need for marriage and family therapists to engage in socially responsible practice by infusing diversity, equity, and inclusion throughout theory and clinical practice. Written accessibly by leaders in the field, this new edition explores why sociocultural attunement and equity matter, providing students and clinicians with integrative, equity-based family therapy guidelines and case illustrations that clinicians can apply to their practice. The authors integrate principles of societal context, power, and equity into the core concepts and practice of ten major family therapy models, such as structural family therapy, narrative family therapy, and Bowen family systems, with this new edition including a chapter on socio-emotional relationship therapy. Paying close attention to the how toâs of change processes, updates include the use of more diverse voices Trade Review"Attuning to the sociocultural perspective was never a choice but our culture of dominance invisiblizes it, creating colonizing conditions for therapeutic practice. But no more! McDowell, Knudson-Martin, and Bermudez’s socioculturally attuned framework offers theoretically dynamic, contextually sensitive, and relationally ethical ways to unpack the invisible, yet highly felt, role power plays to create third-order change. They show us how this change is an imperative, not a choice, to create just relationships. One of the rich features in this edition are diverse practitioner reflections, across contexts, which afford the reader to engage one’s unique intersectional positionalities in practice. This book needs to be required reading for all practitioners."Saliha Bava, PhD, Associate Professor, MFT Program, Mercy College; Co-founder & Executive Council Member, International Certificate in Collaborative-Dialogic Practices Network "Systemic, third-order thinking requires profound and authentic engagement making transformative change at many contextual levels impossible without socioculturally attuned praxis in family therapy. This compelling book challenges family therapists to stay true to their systemic training and consider all the intersections of our relational contexts. It uses a social justice and inclusion lens and has uniquely included the voices of many engaged in transformative third-order thinking and change. It is a must-read for anyone claiming to be a family therapist."Manijeh Daneshpour, Distinguished Professor of Family Therapy, Alliant International University, CaliforniaTable of Contents1: What is Sociocultural Attunement and Why is it Important? 2: Guiding Principles for Socioculturally Attuned Family Therapy 3: Third Order Ethics and Contextual Self-in-Relationship 4: Socioculturally Attuned Structural Family Therapy 5: Socioculturally Attuned Brief and Strategic Family Therapies 6: Socioculturally Attuned experiential Family Therapy 7: Socioculturally Attuned Attachment based Family Therapies 8: Socioculturally Attuned Bowenian Family Therapy 9: Socioculturally Attuned Contextual Family Therapy 10: Socioculturally Attuned Cognitive Behavioral Family Therapy 11: Socioculturally Attuned Solution Focused Family Therapy 12: Socioculturally Attuned Collaborative Family Therapy 13.

Taylor & Francis AntiOppressive Psychotherapeutic Practice
Book SynopsisThis book supports mental health practitioners in showing how they personally intersect with oppression, helping them explore how it shows up in their practice and providing them with tools to offer anti-oppressive care.Written in an accessible and spiritual tone, chapters discuss the human need for connection as well as demonstrate the oppression through a social, neuroscientific, and biological lens as something that resides and can be passed on generationally. St. Aime interrogates the idea of the moral cloak symbiotic with whiteness and encourages readers to separate themselves from their profession to become a reflective rather than defensive clinician. She defines anti-oppressive practice as a clinical approach that considers the systemic, intergenerational, sociocultural and political influences on the lives of individuals and identifies the pillars of anti-oppressive practice as interconnectedness, interdependence, boundless curiosity, and vulnerability.

The book provides an in-depth exploration of the Five-Phase Principles for the Treatment of Loss and Grief (intervention), as well as guidance on the supervision of loss. The chapters, accompanied by case studies, provide an overview of the novel model, followed by specific and tailor-made guidance on assessment (including a novel self-report measure), formulation, treatment, and supervision.This guide is intended for cliTrade Review'In the past few years many people have died due to COVID-19 and instead of being able to follow our traditions, cultures and faiths about death and dying, people across the world were forced to change these vital processes. I personally believe that the changing of these essential rites of passage has and will have a profound impact on the grieving process and thus on people's mental health in general. I have found this book to be clearly written, very engaging and right now so needed by students, clinicians, educators and researchers as the issues with complex grief are going to be on a scale never seen before. I am delighted to recommend this text.' — Derek McLaughlin, PhD, RN, Senior Lecturer and Professional Lead for Mental Health Nursing, Queen’s University Belfast'A Turkish saying goes, "The journey of those without a guide ends in a dead end." In a difficult clinical field such as complicated grief, where the therapeutic process can be injurious for clients as well as ambiguous for clinicians, the authors offer us a valuable guide in which clinical practice is built on a strong theoretical model and embodied in case vignettes.' — Vahdet Gormez, MD, MRCPsych, Associate Professor and Chair, Department of Child and Youth Mental Health, Istanbul Medeniyet University'Without question the authors have created the definitive guide for working effectively with grief and loss. The guide provides valuable clinical insights on assessment, formulation and case conceptualisation through to how to implement the five-phase protocol in your practice and is enhanced with clinical examples throughout.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Helping Skills for Counselors and Health
Book SynopsisHelping Skills for Counselors and Health Professionals provides a model of foundational helping skills that is grounded in a multicultural framework. Chapters explicitly examine implicit bias and the role of culture and systems of oppression and marginalization within the lives of both individuals and communities. The text also uses ecological systems theory to assist readers in conceptualizing the ways in which culture influences communication styles, perceptions of professional helpers, and individual needs. Readers will be introduced to concepts that increase awareness of micro and macro-level influences on helping skills, communication, and the patient's life. Within the book's multicultural framework, readers will also find tools for increasing self-awareness for improving the communication skills and cultural humility. Trade Review"In a world in which we often assume people skills cannot be taught, this text provides an evidence-based overview of how to build, maintain, and optimize relationships in health professions education and practice." Aimee K. Gardner, PhD, professor and associate dean, Baylor College of Medicine"This book should be added to every graduate course seeking to grow culturally competent and self-reflective mental health practitioners. Guided by Bronfenbrenner’s ecological systems theory, this text delivers a culturally accountable framework that enhances self-awareness and supports practitioners’ efforts to integrate cultural considerations as they develop their helping style and counseling skills."Layla Kurt, PhD, associate professor, University of Dayton"In a decade ushered in by a pandemic and honed in an active crucible that exposed the impact of systemic racism, trauma, and disregard for science, this textbook is a timely antidote and a classic primer for helping skills instruction. This collection of eleven chapters is written clearly and authentically, with expert integration of trauma informed care, cultural humility, and ethical practice into the presentation of evidence-based empathic helping skills. Sophisticated enough for graduate classes and clinical settings, this book is also a valuable gem to reach undergraduates seeking skills in how to build relationships. It offers a rare and buffet of theories and applications, from Rogers to Prochaska to Bronfenbrenner. This is a truly comprehensive and accessible text, perfect for use in college, in clinics, and by anyone wishing to learn how to better connect with people across settings, populations, and histories."Anne Sullivan-Soydan, ScD, clinical associate professor, Boston University, Sargent College of Health and Rehabilitation SciencesTable of ContentsSection 1: Helping in a Complex World 1.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Holographic Reprocessing for Healing Trauma Abuse
Book SynopsisHolographic Reprocessing for Healing Trauma, Abuse, and Maltreatment facilitates constructive reorganization of the perception of trauma which in turn, modifies associated emotional and behavioral tendencies that render people stuck in repetitive cycling of trauma. These patterns are called experiential holograms. This book outlines a step-by-step process to 1) identify experiential holograms, 2) consider context to holistically reappraise meaning, and 3) reprocess using an imagery-based procedure of visiting one's younger self to offer a healing message. This novel approach is integrative, easily tailored to individual needs, and well-grounded in theory. It can be applied to healing from a variety of traumatic experiences including moral injury, medical, interpersonal, and military traumas. Numerous outcome studies support a growing evidence-base for the efficacy of this treatment, and this is an indispensable guide for trauma clinicians.Trade Review"I have seen great success with Dr. Katz’s Warrior Renew protocol and am honored to endorse this book, which presents a blueprint for using holographic reprocessing for a full range of trauma experiences. This book is a must read for any trauma therapist, not only for learning these techniques but also for reading multiple case examples that model for us Dr. Katz’s compassionate style for treating our most traumatized patients." Eliyahu Reich, PhD, trauma psychologist, past president of the Tennessee Psychological Association and Memphis Area Psychological Association"In this book, Lori Katz, a compassionate clinician and innovative thinker and researcher, offers a transdiagnostic, holistic path of healing for those who have experienced trauma, abuse, and maltreatment. Holographic Reprocessing elucidates the underlying patterns that create ripple effects of traumatic experiences through peoples' lives. This approach can transform individual lives and our collective network of interpersonal relationships."David R. Kopacz, MD, assistant professor, University of Washington, and author of Re-humanizing Medicine (2014); Caring for Self and Others (2023); and with Joseph Rael (Beautiful Painted Arrow) Walking the Medicine Wheel (2016), and Becoming Medicine (2020)"This book is an invaluable resource for professionals who work with trauma survivors of any kind, combining a comprehensive exploration of theory with readily applicable tools to implement in practice. Holographic reprocessing is the culmination of decades of insights from clinical experience with this population and deeply rooted in an extensive body of research. This innovative approach helps survivors achieve powerful, lasting change in their lives."Nicole Myers, MD, former US Army CaptainTable of ContentsSection 1: Foundation for holographic reprocessing 1.

Taylor & Francis Setting Relations Right in Restorative Practice
Book SynopsisSetting Relations Right in Restorative Practice is a practical guide to using restorative processes, both in justice systems, to provide a healing response to harm, and in broader community contexts, to help people co-exist peacefully. Restorative processes can help to establish, maintain, deepen, and repair relationships, and to neutralise the conflict associated with negative relationships. The result is less conflict within people, between people, and between groups, and increasing individual and community wellbeing. These complex goals can be distilled to the single principle of setting relations right.The authors distil lessons from their decades of work at the frontline of restorative innovation. They outline an accurate, accessible theory that informs a restorative mindset, and describe in detail the corresponding skill set. Succinct, engaging case studies include refinements to existing programs in justice systems. Other case studies include the innovations of restorative responses to institutional abuse and to family violence and sexual harm, initiatives to increase psychological safety in schools and workplaces, and programs that support restorative ways-of-working across whole cities or regions. By applying elements from successful programs, practitioners can realise the broader reforming potential of restorative practice.This book is essential reading for restorative practitioners, administrators, and policymakers, for students and researchers â indeed, for anyone interested in the power and potential of restorative practice and other forms of deliberative decision-making.Trade Review'After a few decades of ample glow yet lagging go in the restorative justice movement, Moore and Vernon offer up a unique and much-needed way forward to fulfil the promise of restorative justice and practices. This book will help many of us already in the field to course-correct, but will surely also help launch new efforts to shine bright right out of the gate. The very real lessons wrought from decades of on-the-ground experience, combined with ringing clarity around theory and guiding principles, creates this must-have book for any government, policy-maker, institution, community organization, and practitioner wanting to maximize the impact of their restorative work.'Lauren Abramson, Ph.D., Founder, Baltimore Community Conferencing Center (now Restorative Response Baltimore)'My ancestors experienced life on Aboriginal reserves and government policies which included the forced removal of children who grew up in institutions without the love of and guidance of family. Harsh conditions caused intergenerational trauma and negative social and emotional wellbeing. As Executive Director of our country’s first independent Aboriginal Boarding College, I have experienced firsthand the effectiveness of restorative practices. Our community-led restorative project Lotjpadhan provides for culturally informed decision-making and healing for our at-risk young people, families, and communities. Working with David and Alikki on this project is demonstrating how we can walk together, embed Aboriginal ways of knowing, doing, and being into evidence-based interventions, and bring about great change.'Dr Lois Peeler AM, Yorta Yorta and Wurundjeri Elder, co-founder of Worawa Aboriginal College, and National, and Aborigines and Islanders Day Observance Committee (NAIDOC) 2022 Female Elder of the Year'A unique and inordinately-important book. On the one hand, Moore and Vernon have processed a vast range and depth of scholarly literature detailing restorative practices and related interdisciplinary fields like social psychology. On the other hand, they have sifted this material with the knowledge drawn from decades of program design, implementation, and restorative work. The result is a profoundly insightful and deeply compelling statement of restorative practices that will do nothing less than benchmark the field moving forward.'Douglas Campbell, Professor of New Testament, and co-director of the Duke Divinity School Prison Program'Some years ago, I wrote The Jack Manning trilogy, three plays which portrayed the drama of transforming conflict into cooperation through group conferences in families, work units, and organisations. The plays also posed the larger question of what else might be possible with a restorative process. This book answers that question, with practical guidelines for responding to injustice – effectively, collectively, and non-violently.' David Williamson AO, Australian dramatist and playwright, author of five miniseries, twelve screenplays, and fifty plays, including Face to Face, A Conversation, and Charitable Intent'This long-awaited contribution to the restorative justice discourse unpacks various applications of restorative practices in a practical way, with the safeguards, assessment, and sophistication required to do it well. The book challenges the ‘win’ or ‘lose’ nature of adversarial processes, and identifies opportunities for healing and recovery. The authors bring a theoretical framework, but also unique expertise and on the ground experience of administering and evaluating restorative practices in many different situations and contexts. The critical analysis is useful not only for academic and practitioner audiences, but also for policy makers and programme administrators.'Liz Curran, Associate Professor of Clinical Legal Education, Nottingham Trent University, author of Better Law for a Better World In Setting Relations Right in Restorative Practice, Moore and Vernon achieve their stated aims of increasing the “know-how” of both facilitating restorative processes and the administration of restorative programs. The authors set out clear, tested strategies and practices. Through definitional clarity, revisiting RJ’s Occidental and Oriental origin stories and emergence, and clear case examples, Moore and Vernon offer paths for setting relations right within the restorative justice and practices movement itself. Setting Relations Right in Restorative Practice is a welcome, unique, and timely addition to the restorative justice and practices literature. Welcome is the challenge to restorativists to ensure that reflective learning processes in training, facilitation, program design and administration are prioritized. Unique in being informed by years of experience in a wide range of institutional settings and levels beyond their marginalized status with youthful offending and post-conviction applications. Timely in arriving at an important moment in restorative justice’s emerging realization as a social movement in the face of strong headwinds from the rise of authoritarian impulses. This is a hopeful, inspiring work grounded in substantive theory and research, steeped in years of reflective experience on the parts of the authors, beautifully written in a style that will appeal to practitioner-facilitators, program designers and administrators and leaders.Gale Burford Emeritus Professor, Distinguished Visiting Scholar of Restorative Justice at Vermont Law School, editor of Restorative and Responsive Human Services Table of ContentsIntroduction 1.The pattern and pace of innovation in restorative practice 2.Identifying the right process to address the situation 3.Core facilitation skills 4.Refining restorative practices in justice, education, and workplaces 5.Restorative practice for reforming institutions, responding to complex harm, and coordinating regional services 6.From restorative to regenerative reform: Developing systems-for-improving-systems
