Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are many books that depict the psychological world, its richness of theories and counseling models. Yet there are few books that integrate under one cover clusters of counseling models that rightfully need to be treated and considered together because of their inherent commonalities. Treated in this cluster-like fashion, breakthroughs in psychological counseling may be better observed and thus better understood. With an enhanced appreciation from this broader and higher level of knowledge, the counselor can become better equipped, more flexible, and hopefully more effective with clients. Thus the counselor avoids being "wedded" to any one particular model as Carl Whitaker had correctly cautioned against many years ago. This book deals with the treatment of six psychotherapeutic models which, despite their differences and unique characteristics, are interwoven into a huge quilt identifiable as modern brief therapy under the rubric of family/systems. This book effects a synthesis so that the following models are appreciated for their unique breakthroughs and special connectedness with each other. The models treated relate to the Mental Research Institute (problem-focused), the Milan School (circular questioning), Steve de Shazer (solution-focused), O'Hanlon & Weiner-Davis (solution-oriented), Terri Real (constructivist), and White & Epston (narrative techniques).

Download or read book Fractured Renaissance Tales of Old written by George Carpetto and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2001-04 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's near the end of the world, and the Church intelligentsia concurs. The darkness in man's soul is terrifying the whole of Christendom where prophets and theologians have lost control. As the world inexorably approaches the year 1500, anxieties deepen at a staggering pace. Who will save the world? If today someone were to shout from the rooftops imploring us to love our Mother Earth before it's too late, would we listen? Prophets come in many forms and often speak our language. Their words are comprehensible, but their meaning is not. Prophecy is serious business. Often the prophet is taken for the fool, the eccentric saint, or the madman who's half-blind and sees things we do not. Or could it be the old lady who walks her dog ten times a day apparently mumbling words to deaf ears while her Parkinsonian hand keeps trembling to the beat of a truth no one wants to hear. Prophecy is dangerous. If we listen, then we too might be crazy like the fool, the saint, the half-blind man, and the old lady with her dog. Prophecy is not for me. I'll just sit in my poop and play it safe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In psychotherapy clients sometimes experience breakthrough moments - profound moments in which their world and how they view themselves is changed for ever. But what exactly occurs during such moments? In Breakthrough Moments in Arts-Based Psychotherapy the author shares her very personal journey to discover what might be happening at these pivotal moments and demonstrates their importance for clients' change processes. Filled with examples from her own practice, the book dips into the worlds of chaos and complexity theory, neuroscience, quantum physics, and theories of change, in order to show how the use of arts-media in psychotherapy - visual images and drawing, drama and music, sand-tray and enactment - can encourage the arrival of these dramatic breakthrough moments. The aim of this unique book is to shine a spotlight for the first time on a deeply profound aspect of arts-based psychotherapy in an accessible and engaging way.

Download or read book From Breakdown to Breakthrough written by Danielle Knafo and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-11-21 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a clear and user-friendly guide for clinicians who work with patients affected by psychosis, this book challenges the false notion that psychosis is untreatable through talk therapy. The authors contend that since psychotic symptoms are features of survival adaptation, they naturally serve as a valuable source of information, providing clues about the origins of people's psychic derailment along with a path to its cure. The authors advise therapists not only to read and respond to the messages embedded in the symptoms, but also to recognize and utilise the non-psychotic aspects of the patient in facilitating recovery. The overall aim is to recruit the patient as a collaborator in their treatment, thus wresting a meaningful and redemptive narrative from the psychotic experience. All aspects and phases of treatment - from initial encounters through the middle phase to termination, and even supervision - are covered in this volume. Abundant with clinical examples, theoretical and technical points, and treatment methods, this book is essential reading for all psychotherapists, psychoanalysts, and other mental health clinicians working with psychosis.

Download or read book The Ketamine Breakthrough written by Dr. Mike Dow and published by Hay House, Inc. This book was released on 2023-04-04 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times best-selling author Dr. Mike Dow and Ronan Levy, founder of Field Trip, the world's largest provider of psychedelic-assisted psychotherapies, offer ways to integrate ketamine into treatment for depression, anxiety, PTSD, and more. It’s been described as the most important breakthrough in mental health since the introduction of Prozac in 1986. And though once considered taboo, the psychedelic compound, ketamine, is experiencing a spectacular therapeutic comeback. When combined with psychotherapy, ketamine, which has been described as the being possibly the “most important breakthrough in antidepressant treatment in decades,” has the potential to treat depression, anxiety, PTSD, and other debilitating mental illnesses—and change lives. Unlike antidepressants, which merely mask the pain, psychedelics that heal the brain are the future. Instead of putting Band-Aids on the brain, with Ketamine Assisted-Psychotherapy, you can actually repair the neurological damage caused by stress, anxiety, neglect, and abuse. In this book, best-selling author Dr. Mike Dow and Field Trip co-founder Ronan Levy provide a broad overview of where KAP came from, how it works, who it works for, and what to expect. More importantly, The Ketamine Breakthrough gives specific protocols for both practitioners and patients to follow in their work with KAP. This book contains hope for those diagnosed with treatment-resistant depression, plagued by trauma and frozen by fears. Ketamine-assisted psychotherapy has also proven effective for people with drug, alcohol, and behavioral addictions, existential depression, grief, and just feeling stuck. People with unresolved resentments, anger, and the everyday anxieties of modern life will also benefit. Ketamine-assisted psychotherapy has been enormously helpful with couples, groups, and veterans, which will be addressed in the book as well. This is the go-to manual for therapists and anyone who wants to learn more about Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy. For those undergoing this revolutionary protocol, it includes a session-by-session Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy Workbook to enhance and deepen the treatment.
Download or read book Breakthrough Conversations for Coaches Consultants and Leaders written by Graham Lee and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-09-14 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conversational effectiveness is a barometer of human thriving and facilitating insightful conversations is a powerful method for accelerating psychological change and collaboration. This ground-breaking professional book provides a map of Breakthrough Conversations together with a practical toolkit for enhancing awareness, emotional resilience and creativity. Neuroscience, mindfulness and psychological research shows that awareness is pivotal to skilful conversations. By supporting clients to observe and manage their own body-brain states during conversation, they can learn to switch on the physiological systems that support more authentic, agile, and attuned interactions. Three body-brain states, reactive, habitual and reflective – characterised as Red, Amber and Green (RAG) - are differentiated in terms of body-sensations and behaviours, and these correspond to predictable interactive patterns. Facilitated to experience more emotionally resilient conversations, clients access their natural capacities for collaboration, compassion and shared creativity. This journey, through the five stages of Breakthrough Conversations, drawing on the RAG frame and a number of other practical models, is richly illustrated with case studies from working one-to-one and with pairs. Coming to see conversations as a dance driven by the interactions of underlying needs and emotions frees clients to make paradigm shifts in their self-awareness and interpersonal effectiveness. This book, and the approach it outlines, will be essential reading for coaches, consultants, leaders and all professionals seeking to choreograph more insightful conversations.
Download or read book The Exhaustion Breakthrough written by Holly Phillips and published by Rodale. This book was released on 2015-06-02 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's become the norm to complain that we're always tired. In The Exhaustion Breakthrough, Dr. Holly Phillips aims to end this accepted state of exhaustion and send a message to readers that they do not have to be drained of energy just because they have a demanding job, a family, or an active social life--or all three. She also explains the insidious nature of fatigue, educating readers on the havoc that persistent tiredness wreaks on the body and mind, from weight gain and cognitive impairment to even a higher risk of heart attack and stroke. Dr. Holly's passion for the subject stems from the quest to cure her own constant weariness--which she struggled with for more than 20 years--as well as the countless complaints of chronic tiredness she hears from patients each day in her internal medicine practice. While a few readers might find a link between their fatigue and a medical condition such as chronic fatigue syndrome or fibromyalgia, Dr. Holly knows that many more will discover that diet, exercise, and sleep habits are contributing to their lack of energy. This guide will help readers understand their exhaustion, rule out any underlying illnesses, correct any allergies or hormonal issues that may be contributing to extreme tiredness, and incorporate lifestyle factors and alternative therapies that will improve overall energy. Clear, comprehensive, and practical, The Exhaustion Breakthrough shines a bright light on an issue many people have simply accepted--but that they don't have to any longer.
