Download or read book Disrupted Lives written by Gaylene Becker and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our lives are full of disruptions, from the minor - a flat tire, an unexpected phone call - to the fateful - a diagnosis of infertility, an illness, the death of a loved one. And the ways in which we come to understand and cope with these disruptions can say as much about our cultural heritage as they say about us as individuals. In the first book to examine disruption in American life from a cultural rather than a psychological perspective, Gay Becker follows hundreds of people to find out what they do after something unexpected occurs. Starting with bodily distress, she shows how individuals recount experiences of disruption metaphorically, drawing on important cultural themes to help them reestablish order and continuity in their lives.

Individuals in Context: A Practical Guide to Client-Centered Practice, edited by Virginia G. Fearing and Jo Clark, presents an integrated approach to practice. The Occupational Performance Process Model, which is the focus of the text, is an easy-to-use seven-stage guide to client-centered, evidence-based practice. Practical applications and sample case studies assist the reader in applying this approach in everyday practice. The book addresses challenges to practice and provides a self-evaluation tool for clients and therapists to reflect on achievements and barriers to client-centered practice. It weaves theory into practice in a refreshing and understandable way. This gem of a book is a collaborative effort by clients, clinicians, academics, and administrators, who present a practical approach to client-centered practice in language that is accessible to busy therapists and students. Individuals in Context is a response to clients, therapists, and student therapists who are seeking ways to think about the occupational therapy process. It provides students and therapists at any stage in their career with an opportunity to reflect on their personal practice to ensure that it focuses on client's needs, is based on sound theory, centered on occupation, and continually evaluates the outcome of therapy intervention. Each chapter reflects the voices, values, and contexts of its authors, and this diversity has been intentionally preserved. It is a multifaceted choir supporting occupational therapy students and therapists in everyday practice.
