Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mental health practitioners are becoming increasingly aware that they are encountering a very large number of men and women who are survivors of sexual and physical abuse. This volume identifies the essential elements necessary for a system to begin to integrate an understanding about trauma into its core service programs. The fundamental elements of a trauma-informed system are identified and the necessary supports for bringing about system change are highlighted. The basic philosophy of trauma-informed practice is then examined across several specific service components: assessment and screening, inpatient treatment, residential services, addictions programming, and case management. Modifications necessary to transform a current system into a trauma-informed system are discussed in great detail as well as the changing roles of consumers and providers.This is the 89th issue of the quarterly journal New Directions for Mental Health Services.

This book was released on 1991-07-09 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In past years significant advances have been made in both the conceptualization and development of innovative program models providing integrated assessment and concommitant treatment for dually disordered patients. The purpose of this volume is to provide the reader with information about the most current ideas and clinical interventions available. Although many of the models presented here have been successful only in clinical trials, and efficacy is not yet confirmed by controlled research, the principles used in the development of these models hopefully will have value in assisting clinicians, managers, and planners who have an immediate need to provide services to this population. This is the 50th issue of the quarterly journal New Directions for Mental Health Services.

This book was released on 1999-10-14 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If there were no financial or legal restraints, what parts of the mental health system would you change in hopes of improving the lives of people with serious mental illnesses? This volume of New Directions for Mental Health Services posed this question to a consumer, a parent, researchers, teachers, administrators, and clinicians. Their creative and insightful answers point the way to a more comforting and consumer-oriented mental health system for the future, and provide some innovative ideas that could be implemented now. The authors address working conditions for mental health professionals, the benefits of pets to people with mental illness, and strategies to counteract the isolation in which many people with mental illness live. They also offer practical steps that parents can take to make sure that their mentally ill adult children will have some emotional and economic care after the parents? deaths, and they discuss interventions at both the domestic and community levels that could reduce the occurrence of schizophrenia and enhance the quality of life for sufferers. This is the 83rd issue of the quarterly journal New Directions for Mental Health Services.

This book was released on 2018-02-20 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This practice-enhancing volume assembles the latest innovative thinking on working with clients who have both mental health diagnoses and substance use disorders. Diagnosis is a central focus of the coverage, untangling the often-knotty considerations surrounding dual diagnosis and the complex issues surrounding treatment even in frequently seen combinations (e.g., depression/alcohol abuse). The section on practice emphasizes meeting patients where they are and making use of their community, cultural, and spiritual contexts in crafting interventions. And the book’s ambitious chapters on professional development describe training programs with the potential to produce the next generation of responsive, knowledgeable, and flexible therapists. Among the topics covered: · Comprehensive assessment of substance abuse and addiction risk in adolescents. · The relationship between attachment and addiction. · Addiction in the community: the role of emergency services. · Substance use during and after major crisis and disaster: a practitioner’s guide. · Practice, advocacy, and outreach: perspectives on addiction services. · Teaching the importance of developing the therapeutic relationship. New Directions in Treatment, Education, and Outreach for Mental Health and Addiction equips health and clinical psychologists, social workers, and addiction counselors and educators with a well-rounded understanding of a growing population, and a wealth of perspectives on effective new interventions.

This book was released on 1998-07-14 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discussions of managed care are dominated by emotion and rhetoric and failure to differentiate among the varying structures, approaches, and strategies that are called managed care. These discussions rarely take account of the complexity of the arena or the failures of mental health systems prior to the introduction of managed care. If we are to shape managed care constructively, we first need clear understanding of how it is structured, how it functions, and when it performs well and poorly. This should help identify how practices can best be monitored, evaluated, and, if necessary, regulated. This book will help readers along this path. This is the 78th issue of the quarterly journal New Directions for Mental Health Services. For more information on the series, please see the Journals and Periodicals section.

Download or read book New Directions for Mental Health Services, Can Mandatory Treatment Be Therapeutic? written by Mark R. Munetz and published by Jossey-Bass. This book was released on 1997-09-19 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nothing is more highly valued in America than individual freedom. In the mental health arena there has been a great debate over patients' rights to freedom and autonomy versus society's responsibility to treat individuals in need and to protect people from the dangerous behaviors that can accompany major mental illness. From the 1960s through the early 1980s commitment laws were rewritten to increase patients' individual freedom and autonomy. Some argue that the balance has shifted back, however, with a reemergence of coercive interventions, often in community settings. There is legitimate concern that these new coercive interventions have been poorly studied, that their effectiveness is largely unknown, and that they are being applied to increasingly large and disparate populations. This sourcebook provides the differing perspectives on mandatory treatment of mental health care consumers, their family members, and advocates of therapeutic jurisprudence. It also supplies data on the effectiveness of mandatory treatment in community-based systems of care and examines some of the more controversial aspects of mandatory treatment. This is the 75th issue of the quarterly journal New Directions for Mental Health Services.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, there has been heightened attention paid to the mental health needs of college students, the range and scope of these issues, and the challenges related to providing mental health services.

This volume examines clinical issues for student affairs professionals beyond the counseling center– addressing how campuses can be prepared for and respond to mental health issues.

Book excerpt: "[This book] provides a comprehensive understanding of the opportunities for all of us working with vulnerable populations to develop thoughtful, workable programs. The topics presented are not limited to the severely mentally ill, but it is an encyclopedia of resources and creative options for service to veterans, the homeless, the elderly. This book challenges us to think creatively and develop programs and services for the people in our society who are most often overlooked and forgotten." Alan E. Siegel, Ed.D. Chief, Mental Health Service, MIT Assistant Clinical Professor of Psychology, Department of Psychiatry, Harvard Medical School "[This book is] the perfect primer for anyone seeking to understand the latest trends in psychiatric care for vulnerable people today." Ted Houghton Supportive Housing Network of New York "It is rare for a single book to discuss innovative practices that affect such a broad array of vulnerable groups, including children and families, older people and people with severe mental illness. Together, these essays allow readers to identify similarities and differences with regard to the needs of these populations, the conditions that may exacerbate their problems, and the adequacy of the programs and services designed to address their needs. It also may help readers identify lessons from innovations targeted at one group that may be helpful in another policy arena." Michael K. Gusmano, PhD Research Scholar The Hastings Center Vulnerable populations typically present with multiple overlapping issues, such as poverty, substance abuse, mental illness, or other health issues that require varying services and treatments. This book provides students and professionals in health care and service delivery with innovative programs and models to address the needs of these vulnerable populations.

Strategies for introducing these innovations-such as cross-system coordination and blended funding-are described in detail, using real, evidence-based programs from around the country as examples. Experts from across program delivery systems, as well as from academia and government, share their practice experience. Key features: Addresses innovative services for children and youth with multiple mental health and/or substance abuse needs Describes health care needs for LGBTQ youth and adults Examines housing issues for persons with psychiatric disabilities, veterans, and older adults Offers innovative program approaches for refugees, older adults, and the disabled Discusses the impact of new media, health literacy, and the consumer/survivor movement on service delivery
