Book Before the Face of God

Download or read book Before the Face of God written by Hanneke Schaap-Jonker and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2008 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All over the world, millions of people attend services every week, and most of them will hear sermons. What happens between the sermon and the listener? Does the sermon become meaningful to listeners? The present study in the fields of practical theology, homiletics, and psychology of religion combines quantitative and qualitative methods to offer an empirically-based approach to the study of preaching. Highlighting the psychological factors influencing how a sermon is heard, this study draws theoretical insight from the works of D.W. Winnicott, A.-M. Rizzuto and D. Bonhoeffer in its examination of the relationship between the meaning of the sermon and the hearer's God image, personality, and affective state.

Download or read book Schemagerichte Therapie written by Jeffrey E. Young and published by Bohn Stafleu van Loghum. This book was released on 2016-01-04 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wanneer disfunctionele denk- en gedragspatronen hardnekkig zijn, liggen er vaak zogeheten "schema"s" aan ten grondslag. Dit zijn belangrijke overtuigingen en gevoelens die het individu aanneemt zonder zich daarover vragen te stellen. Schema"s ontwikkelen zich in de kindertijd en breiden zich daarna uit. Schema"s houden zichzelf in stand en bieden sterke weerstand tegen verandering. Traditionele therapieën blijken dan ook doorgaans te beperkt te zijn om die schema"s omver te werpen.Schemagerichte therapie is een geïntegreerde therapeutische benadering waarin elementen uit cognitieve, gedragstherapeutische en psychodynamische modellen, hechtingsmodellen en gestaltmodellen met elkaar worden gecombineerd. Deze therapie is erop gericht schema"s bij de patiënt te onderkennen en te doorbreken. Het is een effectieve behandeling voor een breed scala van klinische problemen, zelfs bij patiënten die immuun voor behandeling lijken. Dit boek is het eerste uitgebreide werk voor clinici die schemagerichte therapie in hun praktijk willen toepassen. Het conceptuele model van de therapie wordt op uiterst heldere wijze beschreven. Vervolgens worden er behandelprotocollen gegeven. Het geheel wordt geïllustreerd aan de hand van praktijkvoorbeelden en therapiefragmenten. De auteurs bespreken in deze uitgave niet alleen de behandeling van patiënten met as-I-stoornissen, maar er worden ook recent ontwikkelde protocollen gegeven voor de behandeling van borderline-patiënten en narcistische patiënten.Met dit boek, geschreven door onder anderen de grondlegger van de schemagerichte therapie, Jeffrey Young, beschikken therapeuten eindelijk over een allesomvattende handleiding voor de behandeling van die bijzonder lastige patiënten met chronische, langdurige schema's en patronenMet dit boek, geschreven door onder anderen de grondlegger van de schemagerichte therapie, Jeffrey Young, beschikken therapeuten eindelijk over een allesomvattende handleiding voor de behandeling van die bijzonder lastige patiënten met chronische, langdurige schema's en patronen

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every day can be an ordeal for families struggling with the difficult, moody, "impossible" behavior that may point to childhood depression or bipolar disorder. Effective help for kids does exist, but it often requires a customized combination of medication, therapy, coping skills, and support. From esteemed clinician and researcher Dr. Mary Fristad and fellow treatment expert Dr. Jill Goldberg Arnold, this indispensable book explains how treatment works and what additional steps parents can take at home to help children with mood disorders--and the family as a whole--improve the quality of their lives. Explained are why symptoms look so different (and can be so much harder to manage) in children and teens than in adults, how to find the right doctor or therapist, and how to help kids develop their own "coping toolkits." Bursting with practical tools, FAQs, and examples, the book covers everything from dealing with medical crises to resolving school problems, sibling conflicts, and marital stress.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This authoritative volume describes the state of the science of early intervention for trauma and traumatic loss across the lifespan and in a variety of contexts. While few would dispute the importance of helping people cope with severe life stressors, important questions remain about how to identify those at risk for chronic problems and which interventions actually facilitate recovery over time. Following a review of current knowledge on the predictors and course of acute stress disorder, PTSD, and traumatic grief, the volume presents a range of early intervention models designed for very young children, older children, and adults. Authors examine the empirical literature and recommend evidence-based clinical strategies whenever possible, while delineating an extensive agenda for future research. Also covered are the lessons learned from early intervention with specific populations: 9/11 survivors, combat veterans, emergency services personnel, survivors of sexual violence, and others.

Book The Anorexia Workbook

    Book Details:
  • Author : Michelle Heffner
  • Publisher : New Harbinger Publications
  • Release : 2004-05-01
  • ISBN : 160882375X
  • Pages : 210 pages

Download or read book The Anorexia Workbook written by Michelle Heffner and published by New Harbinger Publications. This book was released on 2004-05-01 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Statistics suggests that as many as 2.5 percent of American women suffer from anorexia; of these, further research indicates that one in ten of these will die from the disorder. This is the only book available that addresses the particular needs of anorexics with the techniques of acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), a revolutionary new psychotherapy. The authors of this book are pioneering researchers in the field of ACT, with numerous research articles to their credit Despite ever-widening media attention and public awareness of the problem, American women continue to suffer from anorexia nervosa in greater numbers than ever before. This severe psychophysiological condition-characterized by an abnormal fear of becoming obese, a persistent unwillingness to eat, and severe compulsion to lose weight-is particularly difficult to treat, often because the victims are unwilling to seek help. The Anorexia Workbook demonstrates that efforts to control and stop anorexia may do more harm than good. Instead of focusing efforts on judging impulses associated with the disorder as 'bad' or 'negative,' this approach encourages sufferers to mindfully observe these feelings without reacting to them in a self-destructive way. Guided by this more compassionate, more receptive frame of mind, the book coaches you to employ various acceptance-based coping strategies. Structured in a logical, step-by-step progression of exercises, the workbook first focuses on providing you with a new understanding of anorexia and the ways you might have already tried to control the problem. Then the book progresses through techniques that teach how to use mindfulness to deal with out-of-control thoughts and feelings, how to identify choices that lead to better heath and quality of life, and how to redirect the energy formerly spent on weight loss into actions that will heal the body and mind. Although this book is written specifically as self-help for anorexia sufferers, it includes a clear and informative chapter on when you need to seek professional treatment as well as advice on what to look for in a therapist.

Book Cognitive Behavioral Therapy of Schizophrenia

Download or read book Cognitive Behavioral Therapy of Schizophrenia written by David G. Kingdon and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2022-02-14 with total page 113 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cognitive-behavioural therapy has been successfully employed in the treatment of such problems as depression, panic disorder and phobias. Providing an approach to patients with the most intractable problems, this book details the practical application of cognitive-behavioural therapy to the pervasive disorder of schizophrenia. The techniques described in this book, drawn from relevant theory and research, are designed to complement other treatments for schizophrenia, including medication, rehabilitation and family therapies.; Making a clear distinction between the diagnosis of schizophrenia and the debilitating label of insanity, the authors contend that people with this disorder are not inherently irrational but instead suffer from a circumscribed set of irrational beliefs. The book presents easily learned techniques that professionals can employ to help patients alleviate the impact of these beliefs, and start drawing upon the strengths and rationality they possess to improve their daily lives.; Illustrated with numerous case examples, this book describes how to: work with the person to construct credible explanations of distressing and disabling symptoms; explore the personal significance of life events and circumstances and their interactions with the person's strengths and vulnerabilities; introduce reality testing for hallucinations and delusions; disentangle thought Disorder And Ameliorate Negative Symptoms; And Demystify Psychotic symptoms for individuals and their families. The book also delineates the relationship of thought, identity, insight and coping strategies to schizophrenia.; This text should be of interest to professionals working with people suffering from schizophrenia - from psychologists, psychiatrists and residential care workers to social workers, occupational therapists and nursing staff - as well as to students in these fields.
