Strengthening Family Resilience, Second Edition (Guilford Family Therapy Series) - Original PDF
Strengthening Family Resilience, Second Edition (Guilford Family Therapy Series) - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Froma Walsh خلاصه: Resilience can be defined as the capacity to rebound from adversity strengthened and more resourceful. It is an active process of endurance, self-righting, and growth in response to crisis and challenge. The ability to overcome adversity challenges our culture’s conventional wisdom: that early or severe trauma can’t be undone; that adverse experiences always damage people sooner or later; and that children from troubled or “broken” families are doomed. Resilience entails more than merely surviving, getting through, or escaping a harrowing ordeal. Survivors are not necessarily resilient; some become trapped in a position as victims, nursing their wounds and blocked from growth by anger and blame (Wolin & Wolin, 1993).
Start with Why: How Great Leaders Inspire Everyone to Take Action - PDF
Start with Why: How Great Leaders Inspire Everyone to Take Action - PDF
نویسندگان: Simon Sinek خلاصه: Inspired by Simon Sinek’s popular Ted Talk, How Great Leaders Inspire Action, Start With Why teaches us how great organizations communicate, lead, and acquire loyal customers. Sinek argues that great leaders and organizations focus on WHY they do what they do, instead of WHAT they do and HOW they do it. Admittedly, I think you can watch the Ted Talk and get 90% of the value that the book offers, but the book does include a few stories that help cement the key insights. Leaders inspire people to act If you want to influence people’s behavior, you can either manipulate it or inspire it. Manipulation may work in the short-term, but it’s a losing strategy in the long run. Great leaders don’t demand that people do things. They inspire them to care about something. That inspiration will motivate them to do great work. Communicate your WHY Most companies talk about what they do and how they do it. Instead, they should focus on why they’re doing what they’re doing. What is the purpose or cause? Why is it important? Why should others care? These are the questions that need to be answered and communicated to inspire people. People buy the “why” behind your product, not the “what.” The need to belong “We do better in places that reflect our own values and beliefs.” People across all cultures want to feel like they belong. They want to be around others with shared beliefs, attitudes, and values. If someone doesn’t feel like they belong to your organization, they won’t be doing their best work. They won’t feel that sense of being a part of a group that drives us to do better and be happier with what we’re doing. Values and guiding principles need to be verbs “For values or guiding principles to be truly effective they have to be verbs. It’s not “integrity,” it’s “always do the right thing.” It’s not “innovation,” it’s “look at the problem from a different angle.” Articulating our values as verbs gives us a clear idea . . . we have a clear idea of how to act in any situation. We can hold each other accountable to measure them or even build incentives around them.” Loyalty “When our decisions feel right, we’re willing to pay a premium or suffer an inconvenience for those products or services. This has nothing to do with price or quality. Price, quality, features and service are important, but they are the cost of entry in business today. It is those visceral limbic feelings that create loyalty.” Loyalty is not built from features; it’s built from a connection to the mission of a product. Why, What, and How Why: A belief How: Actions we take to realize that belief What: Results of those actions Hiring “Great companies don’t hire skilled people and motivate them, they hire already motivated people and inspire them.” Hire motivated people. Then, inspire them with the mission of your company, the future that you’re trying to build. If you hire talented people who are not motivated, you’ll spend a lot of energy and time struggling to motivate them. Be charismatic “Energy motivates but charisma inspires. Energy is easy to see, easy to measure and easy to copy. Charisma is hard to define, near impossible to measure and too elusive to copy. All great leaders have charisma because all great leaders have clarity of WHY; an undying belief in a purpose or cause bigger than themselves.” You can replicate energy. You can’t replicate charisma. Great leaders find their unique way of being charismatic, and the effect is inspiring.

Family Therapy as an Alternative to Medication: An Appraisal of Pharmland - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Phoebe Prosky خلاصه: This text addresses the issue of the increased reliance on pharmaceuticals as a "quick fix" for treating mental illness. Psychiatric medications have achieved dominance in mental health practices, not because of efficacy, but because of political and marketing practices, and this rush to medicate has largely eclipsed the family systems model of psychotherapy. This book awakens a broader awareness of how invaluable systems-oriented psychotherapy still is, even in the age of medical breakthroughs. It analyses both positive and negative effects of drug therapy and offers several approaches towards integration. It presents treatment illustrations for various disorders, along with potential problems that can arise from trying to combine a medical model with family systems work. The work as a whole is not a monologue on the evils of drug therapy. Rather, the book takes the position that family systems approaches are powerful tools that, when combined with appropriate medication, act synergistically in effecting positive outcomes of treatment.

Play Therapy with Children in Crisis: Individual, Group, and Family Treatment, 3rd edition - Original PDF
Play Therapy with Children in Crisis: Individual, Group, and Family Treatment, 3rd edition - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Nancy Boyd Webb DSW BCD RPT-S, MD Lenore C. Terr خلاصه: Crises and traumatic events are ubiquitous in modern life and affect people of all ages. Contrary to the myth that the magic years of childhood are a period of guileless innocence and carefree play, the reality of the preteen years, like that of later life, includes experiences that provoke anger, jealousy, fear, and grief as well as joy and pleasure. When children experience crises or traumas, their families and communities inevitably also are involved. Sometimes adults actually cause children to be victimized, as in cases of abuse. In other situations (such as natural disasters), no one person is responsible, and the entire affected community must deal together with the shared experience. This revised volume begins with a focus on the family and community envi- ronment in which children live, because of the importance of this social context to the nature of children’s reactions in crises or traumatic situations. We know that children depend on the adults around them for security and protection, and the younger they are, the more this is the case. Furthermore, evidence in the professional literature increasingly attests to the influence of adults’ responses to crises or traumas on the subsequent nature of children’s reactions (Arroyo & Eth, 1996; McFarlane, 1987; Rustemi & Karanei, 1996; Pfefferbaum, 1997; Swenson et al., 1996). Because children watch and take their cues from adults, when their caretakers feel and act terrified, children become even more panicked—since they know that they themselves are helpless and powerless.

Family Therapy Beyond Postmodernism: Practice Challenges Theory - Original PDF
Family Therapy Beyond Postmodernism: Practice Challenges Theory - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Carmel Flaskas خلاصه: Postmodernist ideas are widely used in family therapy. However, it is argued that these ideas have their limits in meeting the richness and complexity of human experience and therapy practice. Family Therapy Beyond Postmodernism examines postmodernism and its expressions in family therapy, raising questions about:* reality and realness* the subjective process of truth* the experience of self.Alongside identifying the difficulties in any sole reliance on narrative and constructionist ideas, this book advocates the value of selected psychoanalytic ideas for family therapy practice, in particular:* attachment and the unconscious* transference, projective identification and understandings of time* psychoanalytic ideas about thinking and containment in the therapeutic relationship.Family Therapy Beyond Postmodernism offers a sustained critical discussion of the possibilities and limits of contemporary family therapy knowledge, and develops a place for psychoanalytic ideas in systemic thinking and practice. It will be of great interest to family therapists, psychotherapists and other mental health professionals.
