Psykoterapi: rådgivning

Working with first responders and veterans is a calling and a privilege. I have said many times in my career that I have the best job ever, because I get to work with the most amazing people on the planet. After three decades of practice, I bring you an intimate, inside look into the therapy room. Treating first responders and veterans is not easy. It is sometimes very challenging, scary, emotionally charged, and gritty. I have had so many impactful patients throughout my career, so I asked six of the most inspirational ones if they would share their stories. They rose to the occasion and granted us an inside look at their healing.

Relearning Therapy is for therapists who want to improve their understanding of emotional problems and their therapeutic practice, and for people who want to understand where their therapeutic problem came from and how it can be resolved. The book comprehensively explains how emotional or psychological problems are created, and how they can be permanently resolved by identifying their biographical origins and relearning the experience.In response to a diffifficult circumstance, a person modifies her behaviour to minimize the impact on her personal dignity. For example, a person learns that by keeping her head down she is less likely to receive criticism from herstep father. In the future, to protect herself from criticism, she keeps her head down, just as she learned to do as a teenager. The learned behaviour, motivated by feelings from the past (not thoughts), becomes a therapeutic problem when it interferes with the person's pursuit of a desired goal.Relearning Experience Process uses the feelings motivating the problem behaviour to identify the past experience underlying the problem. The past experience is relearned, neutralizing the problematic feeling and resolving the problem behaviour.The book explores and provides an answer to the following questions:¿ How should the unconscious be understood?¿ What is the relationship and interaction between conscious and unconscious?¿ What is emotion, and is there a distinction between emotions and feelings?¿ What motivates behaviour?¿ What are, or should be, the aims of therapy?¿ What therapies are the most successful, and what makes them successful?¿ Why do psychological problems develop in a person: how and why are they created?¿ Why do they take the forms that they do in terms of feelings and behaviour?¿ What kinds of experiences lead to emotional problems; and what differentiates these experiences from experiences that don't lead to emotional problems?¿ Is it possible to find the origins of psychological problems in the biography of an individual?¿ Why do problems manifest at the time when they do, sometimes years or even decades following the experiences underlying them?¿ What actually is a psychological problem; how should psychological problems be defined or described?¿ What differentiates less successful from more successful psychological interventions?¿ Can psychological or emotional problems be fully and finally resolved; or do people have to learn to live with them, as we are often led to believe?¿ Is it possible to develop a comprehensive understanding of the nature of psychological problems, and a coherent theory of how and why they develop and how to treat them?

Conflicts have accompanied mankind since time immemorial, and for almost as long people have been trying to limit and deal with them - whether as those affected by them or as professionals with more or less success. For once a system of conflict has developed, once negative expectation structures and with them negative self-evident truths and inherent laws have developed, it becomes increasingly difficult for those involved to escape them: The complexity of our social world, in which it is not easy for communication to find its way, remains unseen. A violated sense of justice, misunderstandings and unfortunate attempts to correct them alternate. One begins to attribute the causes of the conflict to the "person" ("It's you! It's your fault!") and to attribute negative motives to the conflict partner ("You're only doing this because ...!"), who in turn does the same - just like a carousel that slowly gets going. A number of well-studied but little-known psychological processes occur within us when we are in conflict. Outrage at the other person grows, usually unfortunately on both sides. Slowly, the "carousel of outrage and indignation" begins to spin - faster and faster, until...The book places the various psychological mechanisms in the context of a systemic understanding of conflict and explains ways to slow down the carousel.

Unser Problem ist nicht, dass wir weniger Stärken als nötig haben; unser Problem ist, dass wir das Vorhandene nicht anwenden.

ARE YOU LISTENING TO WHAT SHE'S NOT SAYING? Caught between worrying about how she feels and desperately working to portray the image of a good mother, a perfect mother, a mother who knows what's she's doing, the postpartum woman in distress is more likely to choose silence or minimization over disclosure. She will allow her suffering--her dark mood, scary intrusive thoughts, intense anxiety, excessive monitoring of the baby, feelings of inadequacy, grief over lost independence, thoughts of harming herself or the baby, and even delusions and hallucinations--to fly under the radar in exchange for a calm and collected exterior. Even if she's worried about how she feels. Even if she and her baby are in danger. The Perinatal Patient seeks to change that. Co-written by world-renowned maternal mental health expert Karen Kleiman and her highly accomplished mentee at The Postpartum Stress Center, Hilary Waller, this book offers revolutionary, compassionate guidance into the nuanced assessment and treatment of mental health symptoms postpartum--a critical period that does not offer the luxury of time. Filled with case studies, worksheets, and handouts for both patients and providers, this invaluable resource will help you: - Increase the likelihood that patients will disclose how they're feeling - Differentiate between "normal" perinatal experiences and more serious symptoms - Normalize and respond effectively to mothers' intrusive thoughts - Decrease mothers' feelings of isolation and help them build their social support systems - Determine when to refer a mother to a higher level of care - Navigate the complexities of infertility, pregnancy loss, and medical complications post birth - And more!

"In Keep Breathing, Dr. Kate Truitt, a renowned psychologist, applied neuroscientist, and trauma expert, shares her story of unimaginable loss, trauma, and, ultimately, healing. Faced with the sudden, gut-wrenching death of her fiancâe just one week before their wedding day, Kate found her world shattered, catapulting her into a deep void of profound grief, trauma, shock, and guilt. Part memoir and part scientific exploration, Keep Breathing uses Kate's own account as a case study to illuminate the common experiences in our human brain (deep love and devastating loss, exhilaration and pain, life and death) that have the power to both derail our lives and ignite us to rebuild, heal, and grow. Her deeply personal loss sheds light on the human spirit's extraordinary ability to persevere and thrive in the face of suffering, providing readers with a roadmap to navigate their own paths to healing and self-discovery. With its raw yet warm candor, Kate's brave storytelling exemplifies what it means to truly come back to ourselves."--

"The acclaimed author of The Unquiet Mind considers the age-old quest for relief from psychic pain and the role of the gifted healer in the journey back to health ... In this expansive cultural history of the treatment and healing of suffering, Kay Jamison writes about what makes an effective healer, and the role of imagination and memory in the regeneration of the mind. From the trauma of the bloodiest battlefields of the twentieth century to her own experience with bipolar disease, Jamison demonstrates how extraordinary psychotherapy can be when administered properly and explores the clinical reality that healing the mind requires, for both doctor and patient. She draws on the cases of W.H.R. Rivers, the renowned doctor who treated shell-shocked WWI soldiers, on the long history of physical treatments for mental distress and the ancient role of religion and myth in healing, and she looks at the heroic figures in our artistic culture who have healed us as a people, such as Paul Robeson. Fires in the Dark is a beautiful meditation on the quest and adventure of true healing"--

Dieses Sachbuch widmet sich der Frage, welchen Sinn Religiosität heute noch hat und wo Psychologen Warnschilder aufstellen. Religionen haben heutzutage ein janusköpfiges Gesicht: Einerseits sind sie für viele Menschen seelische Unterstützung und Hilfe (nicht nur) in Krisensituationen ¿ andererseits geschehen in ihrem Namen Selbstmordattentate und unter ihrem Deckmantel blüht(e) der sexuelle Missbrauch an Kindern. Religionen haben weltweit ihre Unschuld verloren. Aber was sind eigentlich Religionen? Wie sind sie entstanden? Wie haben sie sich im Laufe der Zeit verändert? Was sind die positiven Seiten der Religionen ¿ was die problematischen? Wo helfen sie und wo schaden sie? Wodurch unterscheiden sie sich ¿ und was ist ihnen gemeinsam? Aus dem Inhalt: Religionen: Welterklärungs- und Sinnsysteme, die sich (fast) immer für das einzig wahre, ewige und endgültige Erklärungssystem halten. ¿ Sie strukturieren diffus-subjektive innere Wahrheiten und unstrukturierte Situationen und versuchen Unbegreifliches begreifbar zu machen. ¿ Urvertrauen, Symbole, rituelle Handlungsweisen. ¿ Was sind spirituelle Erleuchtungserfahrungen? ¿ Ursprung aller Religionen ist die Angst, die Leere, das Sinnlose, der Tod. ¿ Religionen sind gute Führer in dunkler Nacht ¿ tagsüber sollte man sich besser auf die eigenen Augen verlassen. Über den Autor: Werner Gross, Dipl.-Psych., Psychotherapeut, Supervisor und Coach.

"Trauma, heartbreak, anxiety, and mourning are all parts of the human experience, and Josh Fletcher's mission in life is to normalize the need to find a trusted professional with whom you can discuss all of life's scariest aspects. Through the lens of four of his patients--you'll share in their self-discovery and recovery as they untangle themselves from an all-too-familiar web of emotions.

As we deepen our understanding of the interplay between money and psychology, financial therapy has emerged as a popular field of study. This book offers a diverse range of perspectives on the practice of financial therapy, exploring its benefits, challenges, and potential critiques. The book also provides practical guidance for financial therapists as well as financial planning and mental health practitioners who incorporate financial therapy into their work. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the neurobiology of financial decision-making, models in financial therapy, online financial therapy, generational differences in financial attitudes, incorporating financial therapy into divorce planning, and techniques for coping with the stresses associated with estate planning. The book addresses the need for culturally relevant assessments of financial therapy in African contexts and offers a critical appraisal of the field of financial therapy.By providing multiple perspectives and practical guidance, this book will be a valuable resource for students, scholars, and researchers in financial therapy, financial planning and related fields, as well as the broader field of psychology.

As you have arrived at this book description it is likely that you are a therapist, or someone who is concerned about the wellbeing of therapists. If you are a therapist, then the chances are that you are struggling in some way. If so, you are not alone. Therapy is tremendously rewarding work. At the same time though, it is extraordinarily demanding. As a result, each year, many previously committed therapists burn out in their roles, or leave feeling discouraged and dispirited. This is a book for anyone whose voluntary or paid work involves elements of counselling or 'talk therapy'. The aim of this book is to help you spot, navigate, and overcome the common emotional challenges of counselling and therapy, so that you can continue to love the work, effectively support clients, and grow professionally and personally. Clinical psychologist and author, S. J. Southwell, draws on thirty years working in welfare, community, education, and mental health settings. She outlines the key personal, practical, and professional issues that contribute to therapist distress and disenchantment, and provides a wealth of suggestions to support therapists avoid or address the common challenges that arise on their professional journey. The first section encourages you to reflect on different aspects of your life that affect your work as a therapist. These include your habitual thinking patterns and responses, in Chapter 1, and your personal history and current physical and mental health, in Chapter 2. The second section takes a look at what happens in the therapy space, especially when it is likely to affect the wellbeing of the therapist. This includes Chapter 3, which explores the situations in which therapy tends to be particularly hard or slow, and Chapter 4, on three ways in which client work can have particularly powerful and disturbing effects on therapists, transference and countertransference, vicarious trauma, and moral injury. The final section addresses broader aspects of our professional experience, including our work context, in Chapter 5. The remaining chapters in this section address professional crises, including taking on too much client work too soon, and burnout, in Chapter 6, and professional crises of faith, in Chapter 7. The book assumes that if you are having struggles in these areas, you have already set aside time to reflect, that you are using all the therapeutic strategies and skills you have available to support yourself, that you have clinical supervision, you are engaging in regular and appropriate professional development training, and that you have a self-care plan. Of course, it is much easier to write this list of essentials than it is for anyone to put them all in place. They are so important that we return to them in the final chapter, Chapter 8, with some practical suggestions for how to consolidate your practice in these areas.

Junge Menschen stehen mit der Diagnose einer lebensbedrohlichen Erkrankung vor endlosen Fragen, Herausforderungen und Ängsten. Freundeskreis, Familie und medizinisches System versuchen in dieser Situation den Bedürfnissen und Nöten der Betroffenen adäquat zu begegnen. Doch das Netz dieser Unterstützung ist nicht für alle Erkrankten tragfähig und gut gemeinte Angebote werden nicht von allen Betroffenen angenommen. Dabei scheint der Umgang mit Nähe und Distanz sowohl in der Konzeption von Unterstützungssystemen als auch im zwischenmenschlichen Kontakt von Helfenden und Hilfeempfangenden eine maßgebliche Rolle zu spielen, ob ein Angebot von Menschen genutzt wird, oder nicht. Die vorliegende Arbeit greift Argumente und Erkenntnisse unterschiedlicher Disziplinen im Umgang mit Nähe und Distanz in der Versorgung bedürftiger Menschen auf und wendet diese auf die Versorgungsstruktur junger Menschen mit Krebs an. Am Robert-Bosch-Krankenhaus in Stuttgart wurde ein Modellprojekt "Diagnose Krebs - Mitten im Leben" entwickelt, das psychosoziale Unterstützung vor diesem Hintergrund neu konzipiert. Die Auswertung der aktuellen Nutzerdaten und externe Evaluationen zeigen auf, welche Möglichkeiten und Grenzen in einem veränderten Umgang mit Nähe und Distanz im medizinischen Versorgungssystem liegen. Inzwischen wurde diese Arbeitsweise unter dem Namen LINA (Lebensweltorientiert - Integrativ - Nah - Aufsuchend) im Robert-Bosch-Krankenhaus Stuttgart auch auf Menschen mit anderen lebensbedrohlichen Erkrankungen ausgeweitet. Darüber hinaus hat der Krebsverband Baden-Württemberg e.V. die Arbeitsweise LINA in sein Unterstützungsangebot aufgenommen. Weitere Informationen zu LINA werden unter lina-support.de publiziert.
