An enchanting, standalone, modern rom-com inspired by Jane Austen's EMMA, about a matchmaking young woman whose heart may be in the right place... some of the time.Emmeline - Em to her friends - has very little to vex her, except that she hasn't left her beloved home, Midwynter Hall, in over two years.But her isolation doesn't stop her interfering in the lives of others, particularly when it comes to love. As a romance writer, Emmeline obviously knows what she's doing, increasingly plotting real-life matches rather than fictional ones.When best friend Polly gets mixed up with the wrong sort of man, Emmeline has no choice but to swoop to the rescue. And when old family friend Jordi seeks solace after women and work troubles, Emmeline has the perfect solution. You see, everything she's written lately - pairing up lovelorn locals - has somehow (maybe magically) come true. So, if she pens a tale about Polly and Jordi despite their many protests, they'll thank her eventually, once they're blissfully happy together.But no one is more surprised than Emmeline when she finds she wants to write herself into the story, especially if someone she cares about may get hurt in the process.Because as it turns out, believing you've never been in love, doesn't mean you've never (unknowingly) given your heart away...

This expanded second edition of Mitzi Waltz¿s Autism: A Social and Medical History offers an in-depth examination of how the condition was perceived before it became a separate area of investigation, and how autism has been conceptualised and treated since. As well as strengthening the existing text, Waltz has added material on a number of topics that have received increased attention since the first edition, including the rise of the anti-vaccination movement, the shift towards genetic and genomic research, and the progress of the autism self-advocacy movement.The author examines these issues through the perspective of what they mean for autistic people, clinicians and society, and looks at the challenges still faced by autistic people. Waltz also looks at the increased autism diagnosis among girls and women, and how autism has been represented in traditional media and social media. The book includes information from interviews with key researchers, parents of autistic children and people with autism.

This volume is the continuation of the book Suicide in Modern Literature, edited by Josefa Ros Velasco. Considering the positive reception of this book, Ros Velasco launches the second part, entitled The Contemporary Writer and their Suicide. This time, leading representatives of various disciplines analyze the literary, philosophical, and biographical works of contemporary writers worldwide who attempted to commit suicide or achieved their goal, looking for covert and overt clues about their intentions in their writings. This book aims to continue shedding light on the social and structural causes that lead to suicide and on the suicidal mind, but also to show that people assiduous to writing usually reflect their intentions to commit suicide in their writings, to explain how these frequently veiled intentions can be revealed and interpreted, and to highlight the potential of artistic, philosophical, and autobiographical writing as a tool to detect suicidal ideation and prevent its consummation in vulnerable people. This book analyzes several case studies and their allusions to their contexts and the socio-structural and environmental violence and pressures they suffered, expressions of their will and agency, feelings of dislocation between the individual, reality, and existential alienation, and literary styles, writing techniques, and metaphorical language.

Bei Anorexia nervosa zeigen sich oft schwere, langwierige und mitunter ernüchternde Verläufe. Selbst nach scheinbar erfolgreicher stationärer Behandlung kommt es häufig zu erneutem Körpersubstanzverlust und ungeplanten Wiederaufnahmen. Kathrin Peters stellt daher eine innovative Weiterentwicklung bisheriger Therapiekonzepte vor: Die Gewichtsmapping-basierte Intervalltherapie für Anorexia nervosa bei Erwachsenen. Diese fokussiert den Aufbau eines selbstfürsorglichen Essverhaltens sowie die Akzeptanz der resultierenden Gewichtsentwicklung. Durch eine individualisierte Behandlungsplanung auf Basis standardisierter Mapping-Methoden mit planvoll genutzten stationären Therapie- und häuslichen Erprobungsphasen können Bewältigungskompetenzen stufenweise aufgebaut werden. Erstmalig wird die mittelfristige Effektivität der Gewichtsmapping-basierten Intervalltherapie im Vergleich zur Standardtherapie untersucht und ihre Wirksamkeit empirisch belegt. Damit wird erstmals aufgezeigt, dass Gewichtsmapping-basierte Intervalltherapie vielversprechend für die Praxis ist, um die Essstörungsbewältigung nachhaltig positiv zu beeinflussen.

The United States as twice as many mass killings than any other country in the world. In 2018, there were 18 mass killings in one year.Many critics say it is the accessibility of guns in the United States that is the cause of the mass killings. But guns have always been available in the US, particularly since 1781, when the second amendment was passed granting citizens the right to own guns. But mass killing began to multiply at the end of the 20th Century and continued to do so into the 21st Century.People kill not because they have guns, but because they have an urge to kill. The urge to kill is brought on either by an emotional disturbance or a cultural disturbance or both. The urge to kill many people is brought on by an even greater disturbance.Mass killers are the products of dysfunctional families and dysfunctional cultures. The traumas of childhood and the frustrations of living in a dysfunctional culture lead to the eruptions of mass killings.This book probes the minds of mass killers and the meaning of their killings. It begins with an introduction to the psychology of mass killings, then offers six case histories of some of the most notorious mass killers in recent American history. It ends with a chapter on how to prevent mass killings.

Knowing the seemingly secret and hidden meanings of everyday words smooths the process of positive change and goal achievement.

The way out is in. Trauma can change the way you feel about, and in, your body. During a traumatic experience, your body tries to keep you safe, courageously and imperfectly attempting to manage the unmanageable by working to separate you from danger and pain. Even if you understand why something happened, how it happened, and what to do if it happens again, it can still be difficult to move on because your body remembers - and it reminds you again and again through deeply physical symptoms. Considering this, your body may be your most valuable resource in recovery. In this workbook, renowned trauma therapist Catherine Cook-Cottone provides a step-by-step, sequential process for embodied healing that will teach you to work through your trauma, reconnect to your body, and begin thinking about what is next in your embodied path forward. Filled with over 100 embodied practices, worksheets, and meditations, you'll learn how to: - Befriend your body and build your inner resources for healing - Be with and work with your trauma memories and symptoms - Work with difficult sensations, emotions, cognitions, and reactions in partnership with your body - Reconnect to your body's wisdom - Listen to your body and heart with love and compassion - Be in relationship with your trauma True healing comes from reconnecting with your body. It is courageous work that requires commitment and practice over time to create a new way of being. By taking this journey, healing is possible.

Using a process-based approach to personalize CBT for better successPresents a unique dynamic approach to CBTShows how to implement this approachProvides downloadable toolsThe process-based approach to cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is a unique method for understanding psychological problems as complex networks of interacting processes. It allows therapists to grasp the individuality, complexity, and dynamics of psychological disorders - things that often get missed in diagnosis-oriented approaches. The authors, both experienced researchers and practitioners of this method, explore how understanding these complex networks enables therapists using CBT to focus on the core processes responsible for a person's suffering.First, the reader is shown how emotional, cognitive, behavioral, and somatic processes interact in maintaining maladaptive states and how this approach identifies the points at which therapeutic interventions can be applied to achieve maximum leverage. This is followed by guidance on implementing the approach in practice, including addressing diagnostic issues, to create an individual process-based model network for selecting the right evidence-based interventions. The process-based approach forms a connecting foundation that combines classical CBT with third-wave approaches (acceptance commitment therapy, schema therapy) and integrates helpful recent developments in psychotherapy research, such as evolutionary theories. Practitioners will find the downloadable tools in the appendix invaluable for their clinical practice. This book is of interest to clinical psychologists, psychiatrists, psychotherapists, mental health practitioners, students, and trainees.

Everyone perceives and interacts with the world differently. That's what makes us human. Exploring Neurodiversity and Invisible Disabilities unpacks the relationship between people labelled as "abnormal" and the societal attitudes toward associated mental health disabilities, such as autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Terms such as "neurological minorities" have led the way in reducing stigma toward many mental illnesses and reframing discussions to make the language more inclusive. Yet today, there exist many barriers for people labelled as neurotypical or neurodivergent in schools, institutes of higher education, and workplaces that this book aims to address. Further understanding of different invisible disabilities through research and diversity and inclusion efforts can pave the road to not only accommodating vulnerable groups but also implementing culturally-inclusive frameworks for people to achieve their full potential.
