Download or read book Systematic Intervention with Disturbed Children written by Marvin J. Fine and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Disturbed children constitute a sizeable and varied percentage of the child population. Generally, two to three percent have severe, longstanding problems and 20 to 30 percent have current, more transient problems. While preventive efforts are needed, it also seems obvious that many children will continue to function in a disturbed and disturbing fashion and will continue to require vari ous kinds of therapeutic interventions. These interventions will mainly occur in school and community settings. This book attempts to present a picture of some fairly popular models of intervention and to consider important related issues. There are probably as many ways of coping with disturbed children as there are creative, caring persons attempting to do the coping. A growing literature exists on ways of conceptual izing and intervening with such children. It was believed by the editor that an organized body of information on these concepts and techniques would prove useful to student and practitioner. A danger with such collections is that if they mainly portray novel or atypi cal techniques, while informative, the book quickly becomes passe and of li mited value. This book's focus is on contemporary thought, but also on orien tations that have stood the test of some time and the stability of the under lying theory.

Download or read book Family Psychoeducation for Serious Mental Illness written by Harriet P. Lefley and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2009-07-17 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research shows that many adults with serious mental illness live with or maintain contact with their families. But families are rarely given information about their relative's illness and their own needs for support are ignored. To be optimally beneficial, family members and other caregivers need education about the disorder, some knowledge of illness management techniques, and personal support. Family psychoeducation (FPE) is a powerful evidence-based psychosocial intervention that serves consumers and their families. FPE has proven efficacious in reducing relapse and hospitalization, reducing symptoms, increasing employability of persons with severe and persistent mental illness, and, in many cases, enhancing their families' well-being. Its success rests with a state-of-the-art education model for improving caregivers' understanding of their loved one's illness through learning what is known and not known about it and how to assess and cope with its manifestations. Here, in the first book of its kind, Harriet P. Lefley traces the history of FPE -- including the developments in mental health services and systems and theoretical approaches that inform it -- and the robust empirical evidence it now claims after a quarter-century of development and evaluation at major research centers around the world. Presenting first the approach's generic components, training models, and required competencies, Lefley then discusses the available variations, such as Family Education (FE), a brief manualized form of FPE offered by professionally trained family members that has some empirical support for knowledge gains and easing family distress. The result is a comprehensive, practical introduction to family psychoeducation that critically appraises the evidence and examines the model's place in contemporary mental health systems. This groundbreaking volume is an ideal training tool for graduate students of social work, psychology, and psychiatry and a valuable addition to the clinician's armamentarium of evidence-based practices for clients with serious mental illness.

This book was released on 2024-09-24 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive manual for treating intimate partner violence—now updated and revised. Long disregarded, female domestic violence is rapidly gaining awareness as research proves not only that it exists, but that the frequency of women abusing men is much higher than previously assumed. While certain core elements of intimate partner violence are shared among all offenders, female offenders face unique triggers, personal backgrounds, and relationship dynamics. Now fully updated and revised, The STOP Program for Women Who Abuse is the most innovative and comprehensive manual to address domestic violence treatment specifically for female offenders, with a program targeted to engage women in their own healing process. This second edition includes new sessions on the Five Love Languages, the Stages of Change, and Stake in Conformity, and updates throughout the text reflect an increased emphasis on trauma theory, attachment theory, mindfulness techniques, and gratitudes. Handouts and homework for participants (sold separately) provide structure for recovery in group sessions and at home.

Download or read book Handbook of Pediatric Psychology in School Settings written by Ronald T. Brown and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2003-09-12 with total page 840 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years the escalating costs of health care have caused managed care programs to shift the delivery of pediatric psychological services away from specialized medical centers and into primary care and school settings. One result has been a radical expansion of school psychology into issues of clinical intervention, health promotion, and the assessment of psychotropic medications. School psychologists are now expected to either deliver or (more likely) to provide consultation regarding a wide variety of pediatric psychological services. Because this is a recent phenomenon, very few school-based psychologists or allied health practitioners (school counselors and social workers) have received training in pediatric psychology. The mission of this book is to provide them with a comprehensive and authoritative guide to their newly acquired responsibilities in such areas as psychotherapy, psychopharmacology, health promotion, and prevention of disease. This book is appropriate for anyone concerned with issues of pediatric psychology in school settings: school psychologists, pediatric psychologists, clinical child psychologists, as well as pediatricians and child psychiatrists.

This book was released on 2024-06-27 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Neurodivergent children, adolescents, and adults demonstrate both learning and attention challenges that contribute to academic, social, and workplace failures. The emotional consequences of these disorders can often include lowered self-esteem, pervasive feelings of shame, profound insecurity about academic skills, and a deep sense of vulnerability. This leads many individuals with neurocognitive difficulties to consult with psychotherapists for help in alleviating their psychiatric symptoms. Nechama Sorscher argues that it is therefore essential for clinicians to be mindful of the various types of learning disorders and their impact on the developing psyche while facilitating insight and awareness of these issues. Assessment and Intervention with Children, Adolescents, and Adults with Neurocognitive Challenges: A Psychodynamic Perspective provides an overview of the different types of learning disorders, reviews the literature on common psychological themes found in the psychotherapy of individuals with these disorders, and offers practical suggestions for treatment, as illustrated in case histories. This book discusses how to accurately assess and successfully intervene with children, adolescents, and adults with learning disabilities, attention disorders, and autism spectrum disorder.
