Download or read book The Heroic Client written by Barry L. Duncan and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2004-02-27 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this controversial book, psychologists Barry Duncan and Scott Miller, cofounders of the Institute for the Study of Therapeutic Change, challenge the traditional focus on diagnosis, "silver bullet" techniques, and magic pills, exposing them as empirically bankrupt practices that only diminish the role of clients and hasten therapy's extinction. Instead, they advocate for the long-ignored but most crucial factor in therapeutic success-the innate resources of the client. Based on extensive clinical research and case studies, The Heroic Client not only shows how to harness the client's powers of regeneration to make therapy effective, but also how to enlist the client as a partner to make therapy accountable. The Heroic Client inspires therapists to boldly rewrite the drama of therapy, recast clients in their rightful role as heroes and heroines of the therapeutic stage, and legitimize their services to third-party payers without the compromises of the medical model.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: They didn’t set out to do anything special. These women wanted to protect the ones they care about. Justice for friends, and strangers, was what mattered. They didn’t set out to be vigilantes, but things don’t always go as planned. Fury Stacey counted on Wray to be her partner in every way, until he betrayed her trust and almost cost them everything. She didn’t know how to forgive him, or end things, and move on. But she knew something had to give. Just like she knew her client’s death wasn’t random. She needed answers, but finding them meant doing exactly what her husband did and risking everything. Framed Jessica finally had a date with Braden, the guy she had a crush on forever. A really good date. Her best friend insisted on hearing all about it the next day, but when Jessica showed up, all she found was a body. Her friend’s body. And Jessica is accused of killing her. She has to disappear. Braden’s not going to let her face it alone. But he’s not the only one looking for her. Feign Karli thought it would be easy to pretend to be dead, but someone tried to kill her. Someone who killed the wrong woman. Someone who would kill her if he knew she was still alive. Cade was sure the woman in the grave was not the woman everyone thought she was. But getting Karli to trust him is not so simple. Neither is keeping it a secret that she’s not the one in her grave.

These include why visual research is used how to involve children and young people as co–researchers complexities in analysis of images and the ethics of working visually institutional difficulties that can arise when working with a ‘visual voice’ how to manage resources in research projects Doing Visual Research with Children and Young People will be an ideal guide for researchers both at undergraduate and postgraduate level across disciplines, including education, youth and social work, health and nursing, criminology and community studies.
