Book Synopsis Contemporary Issues in Counseling by : Pamela K. S. Patrick
Download or read book Contemporary Issues in Counseling written by Pamela K. S. Patrick and published by Allyn & Bacon. This book was released on 2007 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This compelling book stimulates readers to explore and critically analyze contemporary issues faced by helping professionals practicing in a dynamic and changing environment. Issues reflect current trends as well as emerging practice topics not addressed in other books, such as coaching, disaster counseling, and the bio-psycho-social model. The book focuses its attention on key issues that all counselors can identify with within three major sections: the first "sets the stage" that is the environment of contemporary counseling practice; section II focuses on issues that directly apply to counseling practice and that appear in the "headlines" in the lives of counselors; and Section III addresses the emerging topics that will become topics of research in the years ahead. Features of the book include the use of current research, theory and applications to provide a contemporary review of key issues counselors face in every-day practice, may encounter while in training, or that are emerging as innovations within the counseling and human services fields of practice. Case vignettes are used throughout all chapters to bring the content "alive" to the reader and present examples of how the issues described are in evidence in the real world of the counseling practitioner. Issues of culture, ethnicity and diversity are highlighted throughout the text. Discussion questions/topics at end of each chapter highlight key concepts by applying the chapter content to the topics/questions. Topics additionally are linked to in-text content sections of each chapter to reinforce application of theory and research to practice.

Book Synopsis The Role of Batterers’ Treatment in Recidivism by Domestic Violence Offenders by : Elizabeth C. Green
Download or read book The Role of Batterers’ Treatment in Recidivism by Domestic Violence Offenders written by Elizabeth C. Green and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this study I examined the role of a batterers’ treatment program relative to other factors that influence the likelihood that a domestic violence offender will be arrested for further violence. Then I looked at factors that best predicted attrition from the program. I sampled 101 program participants from the men who did intakes in one batterers’ program in Alaska. Using Random Forest, I modeled recidivism (re-arrest for violent offences after last contact with the program) and attrition (dropping out during the program) using 27 factors known to be correlated with domestic violence. Of the men who completed the batterers’ intervention program, 20% went on to be arrested for a violent crime, compared to 41% of those who did not complete. The recidivism model was able to correctly predict re-offense 60% of the time. The top predictors in this model were the number of days since last contact with the program, whether the participant had committed any violent offenses during the program, and whether the participant had completed the program. The fact that program completion and attendance variables out-performed the rest of the 27 predictors found in the literature to relate to recidivism provides evidence in support of the effectiveness of the program. The attrition model classified program completion correctly 68% of the time. The top predictor that someone would drop out was race (particularly AK Natives), followed by whether the client was abused as a child, the number of prior offences on their record, and the charges for which they were ordered to the program. This model can be used to inform program efforts to increase retention by targeting interventions targeted to those at highest risk of dropping out and by improving cultural responsiveness.

Book Synopsis Another Way... Choosing to Change by : Nada J. Yorke
Download or read book Another Way... Choosing to Change written by Nada J. Yorke and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-06-27 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The goal of any batterer intervention program is to stop violent behaviors; but just as important is the transformation of the participant's thoughts, feelings and behaviors in order to eliminate all forms of abuse in their interpersonal relationships. Utilizing a strengths-based, cognitive-behavioral, and solution-focused approach, this trauma-informed, 52-week batterer intervention curriculum and program design addresses mindfulness, attachment issues; and when used as designed, the facilitator will be able to see higher retention rates and identifiable changes in participants' thoughts, feelings and behaviors. This unique program design incorporates adult learning principles and activities to impart information which will • educate the participant on what constitutes abusive behaviors; • stimulate introspection; • promote personal responsibility for abusive behaviors, and; • teach non-violent conflict resolution. Some of the sessions are packed with activity and discussion, while others are designed to stimulate deeper introspection. This design helps in keeping the participant's interest and often they don't even realize that two-hours has elapsed. Ultimately, it is anticipated that the participant will develop and demonstrate empathy for those they have victimized. This material and program design has been praised by participants for what they have learned; by their family members for the positive changes in behaviors and responses to conflict; and by program facilitators who have found the process stimulating and rewarding. This Facilitator Guide is designed to accompany "Another Way...Choosing to Change-Participant Handbook" Discounts are available for multiple purchases-contact www.yorkeconsulting.com for more information.

Book Synopsis Risks and Needs of Participants in Batterer Intervention Programs by : Cristina M. Benki
Download or read book Risks and Needs of Participants in Batterer Intervention Programs written by Cristina M. Benki and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This mixed-methods research study applied the Risk and Need principles of the Risk-Needs-Responsivity (RNR) Theory to men and women court-ordered to participate in Batterer Intervention Programs (BIPs) operated through a Southern California county Domestic Violence Court. Risk for re-offense and need for treatment for substance abuse, trauma, and psychological distress were assessed in 178 men and women. Outcome measures were participant satisfaction with treatment and program completion. Of the 178 surveyed, 70 completed the satisfaction survey while still in treatment, which included open-ended qualitative responses. These 70 participants were also assessed for additional treatment need: Domestic Violence Prevention Education. Program completion status was obtained on another 73. Results showed considerable variation in risk and need factors among participants, such that four different groups emerged: Low risk and need, Low risk and High need, High risk and Low need, and High risk and need. Neither risk nor need for treatment predicted either satisfaction with treatment or program completion. However, post-hoc analyses revealed significant differences between each of the four BIPs in terms of program completion and treatment satisfaction. In particular, one BIP that provided culturally sensitive treatment had a markedly higher program completion rate than did the others. Also, participants who had been married were more likely to complete treatment than those who had not. Finally, qualitative analysis of participant responses demonstrated that a majority of participants appreciated learning skills through the program. Those most satisfied appeared to gain some self-awareness, while those least satisfied had more suggestions for how to improve the treatment program to better meet their needs. Implications for practice, policy, and research are discussed.
Book Synopsis Examining Outcomes Following Batterer's Intervention by : Jessica B. Virzi
Download or read book Examining Outcomes Following Batterer's Intervention written by Jessica B. Virzi and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study will attempt to determine the effectiveness of the Preventing Abuse in the Home (PATH) batterer's intervention program through the collection of qualitative data from interviews completed by men who had previously had contact with the program. Interview questions were created based upon several variables that researchers were interested in gathering information on. Results highlighted differences based on how individuals who had completed the program and those who had not participated in the program spoke regarding their abusive behavior and behavior changes they had made. Results also indicated the importance of working with clients based on which stage in the change process (Prochaska & DiClimente, 1984) that clients appear to be in while participating in the PATH program. This study is part of a larger study that will be attempting to determine the effectiveness of the PATH program. Although women can also be perpetrators of domestic violence, this study will focus only on men because each of the PATH groups are male-only groups.
