This book was released on 2019-02 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learning and Practicing Adlerian Therapy not only provides readers with a review of conventional Adlerian therapy but introduces a contemporary version of it called Adlerian pattern-focused therapy. It is a cutting-edge approach that combines basic Adlerian interventions with a unique therapeutic strategy that is brief, highly effective, and reimbursable. Employing a unique experiential approach, readers "sit in" on the therapy process via transcriptions of a completed 10 session therapy. Ongoing commentaries allow readers to follow the therapist's inner thoughts about the ensuing therapy process. The book begins with chapters that explore the conventional theory and practice of Adlerian therapy and introduce Adlerian-pattern focused therapy. The following four chapters walk readers through the beginning sessions which emphasize the therapeutic relationship and the identification and focus on pattern change. Readers then follow the pattern change process as it unfolds in the middle phase and in the termination phase of treatment. The text concludes with a discussion of how this therapy succeeded in a client with major depression. Successfully blending conventional knowledge of Adlerian therapy with a contemporary approach, Learning and Practicing Adlerian Therapy is an ideal resource for future clinicians.

Download or read book Individual Psychology of Alfred Adler written by Alfred Adler and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 1964-12-30 with total page 548 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When we hear such expressions as feelings of inferiority and insecurity, striving for self-enhancement and power, woman's revolt against her feminine role, the oversolicitous mother, the dethronement of the first-born, the need for affection; when maladjustment is spoken of as self-centeredness, psychological health as other-centeredness; psychiatry as the science of interpersonal relations, neurotic symptoms as ego-defenses and forms of aggression, to mention only a few instances—we are meeting ideas in which Alfred Adler was the pioneer from 1907, the date of his first important publication, until his death in 1937. The purpose of the present volume is to make Adler's contributions to the theory and practice of psychology available in a systematic and at the same time authentic form. To this end we made selections from his writ- ings and organized them with the aim of approximating the general presentation of a college textbook. Because every word in the main body of the work is Adler's, the outcome of our efforts, if we have been successful, should be the equivalent of a textbook by Adler on Individual Psychology, the name which he gave to his system.

Download or read book Guiding the Child on the Principles of Individual Psychology written by Alfred Adler and published by Martino Fine Books. This book was released on 2011-08 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2011 Reprint of 1930 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. Under the leadership and inspiration of Dr. Alfred Adler, a group of physicians and educators organized twenty-eight child guidance clinics in Vienna, Berlin and Munich during the period from 1910-1930. Conducted according to the tenets of Adler's Individual Psychology, these clinics revealed many new and stimulating problems that are as applicable to conditions in America and England as they were to the countries where the clinics were first located. The procedure and results of the actual day-by-day work is given in this volume. The book is designed as an organized and connected account of the problems, accomplishments and failures encountered in the daily work, reported from actual experience by the experts in charge. Dr. Adler has edited the volume and assigned each subject to the specialist in that field, to the end that there may be no omission and no repetition. The result is a closely knit account of inestimable value to the welfare worker, the physician, and the forward-looking parent. The book does not sacrifice fact to popular appeal, but at the same time, it has been carefully prepared to meet the needs of the individual parent as well as the progressive group worker.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This engaging text takes an evenhanded approach to major theoretical paradigms in evaluation and builds a bridge from them to evaluation practice. Featuring helpful checklists, procedural steps, provocative questions that invite readers to explore their own theoretical assumptions, and practical exercises, the book provides concrete guidance for conducting large- and small-scale evaluations. Numerous sample studies—many with reflective commentary from the evaluators—reveal the process through which an evaluator incorporates a paradigm into an actual research project. The book shows how theory informs methodological choices (the specifics of planning, implementing, and using evaluations). It offers balanced coverage of quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods approaches. Useful pedagogical features include: *Examples of large- and small-scale evaluations from multiple disciplines. *Beginning-of-chapter reflection questions that set the stage for the material covered. *"Extending your thinking" questions and practical activities that help readers apply particular theoretical paradigms in their own evaluation projects. *Relevant Web links, including pathways to more details about sampling, data collection, and analysis. *Boxes offering a closer look at key evaluation concepts and additional studies. *Checklists for readers to determine if they have followed recommended practice. *A companion website with resources for further learning.

Download or read book Object Relations Theory and Self Psychology in Soc written by Eda Goldstein and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2010-07-06 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Object Relations and Self Psychology are two leading schools of psychological thought discussed in social work classrooms and applied by practitioners to a variety of social work populations. Yet both groups have lacked a basic manual for teaching and reference -- until now. For them, Dr. Eda G. Goldstein's book fills a void on two fronts: Part I provides a readable, systematic, and comprehensive review of object relations and self psychology, while Part II gives readers a friendly, step-by-step description and illustration of basic treatment techniques. For educators, this textbook offers a learned and accessible discussion of the major concepts and terminology, treatment principles, and the relationship of object relations and self psychology to classic Freudian theory. Practitioners find within these pages treatment guidelines for such varied problems as illness and disability, the loss of a significant other, and such special problems as substance abuse, child maltreatment, and couple and family disruptions. In a single volume, Dr. Goldstein has met the complex challenges of education and clinical practice.
