They feel flawed, and blame themselves. Running on Empty will help them realize that they're suffering not because of something that happened to them in childhood, but because of something that didn't happen. It's the white space in their family picture, the background rather than the foreground.

Book Best Advice on Life After Baby Arrives

Download or read book Best Advice on Life After Baby Arrives written by Nancy Evans and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2002-11-29 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Best Advice on Life after Baby Arrives presents tried-and-true, practical tips for moms, from moms. Addressing a mother's needs and issues - from how to deal with the inevitable exhaustion, to reconnecting romantically with her husband, to carving out time for herself - this book provides comfort, reassurance and inspiration to women facing the demanding first months after the baby arrives. "I ended up having panic attacks right after I had my first baby, because I didn't see a light at the end of the tunnel. Well, here I am with four kids now, and I can tell you it does get better. What you're going through isn't what things will always be like. Don't let anyone, especially yourself, make you feel guilty for doing something for yourself." "Get up 30 minutes earlier than everyone else and make it clear to everyone in the house that this is your time." "As long as your baby has food in her belly, clothes on her back, and is not overly wet, then that time is yours. You don't need to get in the habit of holding the baby all the time. Babies also need to learn to become independent - they need to know that someone doesn't need to hold them all the time."

Book Interviewing and Diagnostic Exercises for Clinical and Counseling Skills Building

Download or read book Interviewing and Diagnostic Exercises for Clinical and Counseling Skills Building written by Pearl S. Berman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2004-12-13 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, specifically designed to meet the needs of those teaching and learning interviewing and diagnostic skills in clinical, counseling and school psychology, counselor education, and other programs preparing mental health professionals, offers a rich array of practical, hands-on, class- and workshop-tested role-playing and didactic exercises. The authors, who bring to their task a combined 31 years of practice and 24 years of teaching these skills, present 20 complex profiles of a broad range of clients--adults, teens, and children; differing in ethnicity, gender, religion, socioeconomic status, presenting problems, and problem severity. The profiles provide students/trainees with a wealth of information about each client's feelings, thoughts, actions, and relationship patterns on which to draw as they proceed through the different phases of the intake/initial interview, one playing the client and one the interviewer. Each client profile is followed by exercises, which can also be assigned to students not participating in role-playing who have simply read the profile. The profiles are detailed enough to support a focus on whatever interviewing skills an instructor particularly values. However, the exercises highlight attending, asking open and closed questions, engaging in reflective listening, responding to nonverbal behavior, making empathetic comments, summarizing, redirecting, supportively confronting, and commenting on process. The authors' approach to DSM-IV diagnoses encourages students to develop their diagnostic choices from Axis I to Axis V and then thoughtfully review them in reverse order from Axis V to Axis I to ensure that the impacts of individual, situational, and biological factors are all accurately reflected in the final diagnoses. Throughout, the authors emphasize the importance of understanding diversity and respecting the client's perceptions--and of reflecting on the ways in which the interviewer's own identity influences both the process of interviewing and that of diagnosis. Interviewing and Diagnostic Exercises for Clinical and Counseling Skills Building will be welcomed as a invaluable new resource by instructors, students, and trainees alike.

Download or read book You Can t Fall Out of a Hole written by D. R. Osborne and published by Fulton Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2021-10-25 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 1 Do you know anyone whose life has not been touched by addiction to alcohol or other drugs? For over forty years, I have asked various groups of people how many of them had their lives touched by addiction, either by their own use of that of a friend, family member, or loved one. I think everyone in every gathering has raised their hands, whether it was a college class, church group, corporate work team, executives, working class folks, inmates or soccer moms and little league dads. Addiction is our nation's number one health, social and criminal justice problem. Addiction counselors and people in recovery from addiction have been shouting this since the 1970's. This book relates lessons learned about what works and what doesn't work in the addiction treatment field during a career that began in the 1970's. It is written for all Americans whose lives have been touched or are being touched by addiction...parents who don't know what to do with their son or daughter who is in the grasp of addiction, doctors and helping professionals who recognize that they didn't get the training they need to identify and treat addiction, the addict who is wondering where to go to get the best treatment, because all treatment programs are not the same. This book is for anyone who knows, loves or lives with an alcoholic or drug addict. It is for the addicts themselves, to give them hope and a direction.
