The EMDR model is linear-real EMDR is not. Therapists who are trained in EMDR can facilitate healing in the most profound ways. But successful treatment requires more than following a rigid script or a protocol. It requires bringing both the art and science of EMDR into the therapy room.¿ In The Art and Science of EMDR, clinicians will learn how to do just that. Grounded in the principles of neurobiology and the science of deliberate practice, this book teaches both new and seasoned EMDR clinicians how to apply the phase-based model of EMDR in a more holistic way. Instead of conceptualizing EMDR in an inflexible and linear manner, clinicians will learn how to adapt the protocol to each client's needs while maintaining authenticity to the model (and to who they are as therapists and humans). Whether you are an EMDR trainer, consultant, or practitioner, this user-friendly guide will help you: Understand a client's presenting problems through the lens of neuroscience Identify and overcome common mistakes during preparation and resourcing Individualize a client's inner resources Develop regular mindfulness habits that improve client outcomes Bring more fluidity to the assessment phase Set the groundwork for effective processing and learn when to intervene Bring the principles of deliberate practice to EMDR trainings and consultations

It is not enough to thank first responders and veterans for their service; it is imperative that we provide for their wellbeing by being dialed in.

Wir alle kennen das schmerzhafte Gefühl der Einsamkeit, die in den letzten Jahren zugenommen hat, obschon es noch nie so viele und so leistungsfähige Kommunikationsmittel gab. Dieses Buch schildert, wissenschaftlich fundiert und verständlich zugleich, das Phänomen der Einsamkeit umfassend. Wie verbreitet ist sie, wie lässt sie sich psychologisch messen, wodurch wird sie begünstigt, wie sehr schädigt sie Leib und Seele ¿? Es räumt mit zahlreichen Vorurteilen auf, etwa dem, besonders einsam seien alte Menschen. Vor allem aber: Wie kann sie reduziert werden?

Mannie and her Mooooody, Disorderly Day follows Mannie the cow as she navigates a somewhat surprising and chaotic day on the weather pasture with her bipolar disorder. After beginning her morning with an abnormally bright sun and vivacious disposition, Mannie's mood quickly shifts to cloudy thoughts and extreme misery, forcing her to leave school. With parental guidance (from Mootilda and Sir Loin), Mannie attempts to take the S.S.R.I. train to get her sun back, and, when her symptoms worsen, she does not succumb to failure. Instead, Mannie finds her way home with a beautiful rainbow and regulated emotions.This unparalleled tale follows the special case of a cow experiencing strange shifts, yet persevering and maintaining hope in the face of mental distress, despite the fact that events do not begin in her favor. It aims to shine an unprecedented, yet accurate, light on mood disorders and treatment for children, using punny characters and sayings, while also providing an underlying moral about the power of fierce aspirations.

A young woman is abandoned by her boyfriend, an older man retires and feels worthless and lonely, a young man learns that his wife is having an extramarital affair. They all see suicide as the only solution.Usually, after a suicide attempt, people are treated in a hospital, where professionals try to work out the underlying psychiatric illness. Ladislav Valach and Annette Reissfelder, however, argue that suicide is not an illness but an action. Since this understanding is based on a high regard for everyday accounts of one's own experiences, the suicidal persons are given the stage in this book.The textbook presents twelve different cases after a suicide attempt. In the analysis of the conversations, attention is paid to the theory of action in everyday life. By presenting the long-term, medium-term and short-term concerns of the patients or the actions in the stories, practitioners gain a detailed insight into the underlying causes of the suicidal act and its treatment.

So often, addiction is viewed as a disease or an uncontrollable habit that signals a lack of willpower. In Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapy for Addictions, IFS educator Cece Sykes, IFS author Martha Sweezy, and IFS founder, Richard Schwartz, suggest a paradigm shift. Rather than viewing addiction as a pathology, they propose that it reflects the behavior of polarized, protective parts struggling to manage underlying emotional pain. In this manual, therapists will learn to access their core, compassionate Self and collaborate with clients in befriending protective parts who engage in addictive processes; healing the vulnerable, wounded parts they protect; and restoring balance to their system. Included inside: Experiential exercises to help clients (and therapists) get to know their own parts Guidelines for conducting assessments in an engaging, collaborative way Clear strategies for negotiating internal conflict and navigating polarizations between opposing parts Case examples annotated with step-by-step explanations Downloadable worksheets, handouts, and meditations

Clinician's Guide to Sexuality and Autism: A Guide to Sex Education for Individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorders is the first book to provide clinicians with comprehensive curriculum of sexuality education skills for people with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). Starting with the importance of teaching sexuality skills to people with autism, this book provides an outline and overview of the recommended teaching strategies (e.g., Behavioral Skills Training, Cool vs. Not Cool, video modeling). This book also reviews the fourteen skill domains directly related to sexuality, including the key skills one should acquire in each domain. A timeline focusing on what skills should be targeted at what age and what skills to teach across the lifespan are also discussed. The curriculum covers domains that are often neglected in sex education for people with different disabilities in general (e.g. values, types of relationships, gender identity, or preferences). Additionally, this curriculum addresses component skills of sexuality in a way that allows early teaching to build upon areas of learning systematically over time, thus likely to have an improvement in teaching over time.
