Rhythm to Recovery : A Practical Guide to Using Rhythmic Music, Voice and Movement for Social and Emotional Development English | 2017 | ISBN: 1785921320 | 257 Pages | PDF | 2.3 MB
Combining rhythmic music and movement with cognitive reflection and mindfulness, this comprehensive handbook shows how drumming and other rhythm-based exercises can have a powerful effect in individual, group and family settings.
Incorporating the latest research on how rhythmic music impacts the brain, this book features over 100 different exercises spanning five key developmental areas: social and emotional learning; identity and culture; strengths and virtues; health and wellbeing; and families, teams and communities. It offers a safe entry to cognitive reflection through fun, experiential rhythmic exercises and is useful for working in settings such as school, child and adolescent counselling settings, mental health and drug and alcohol interventions, trauma counselling and relational counselling. Important sections on the use of metaphor and analogy show how to reinforce experiential outcomes. The book also contains helpful sections on working with specific populations, key facilitation skills and managing challenging behaviours.
The American Psychiatric Publishing Textbook of Suicide Assessment and Management, 2 edition English | 2012 | ISBN: 1585624144 | 770 Pages | PDF | 8,3 MB
Surpassing the first edition in terms of structure, scope, and hands-on utility, this new edition of "The American Psychiatric Publishing Textbook of Suicide Assessment and Management" follows the natural sequence of events in evaluating and treating patients: assessment, major mental disorders, treatment, treatment settings, special populations, special topics, prevention, and the aftermath of suicide. The number of chapters has been increased approximately 20 per cent, from 28 to 34. In addition, 22 new chapter authors were recruited for the second edition, representing nearly half of the 50 authors from the first edition, to present more diverse perspectives. The result is a larger and more substantive text, one that addresses everything today's practitioner needs to know, from the basic biological mechanisms associated with suicide to the effects of Internet harassment. "The American Psychiatric Publishing Textbook of Suicide Assessment and Management" is essential reading.
Psychotherapy of Preoedipal Conditions: Schizophrenia and Severe Character Disorders: Schizophrenia and Severe Character English | 1995 | ISBN: 1568216335 | 396 Pages | PDF | 20,6 MB
In Psychotherapy of Preoedipal Conditions, Hyman Spotnitz and his contributors demonstrate how to develop and use emotional interchange that fosters a climate of increasing emotional complexity and facilitates the psychological development of both parties in the therapeutic relationship. Written from a developmental perspective, this volume discusses the treatment of one of the most severe psychopathologies, schizophrenia, as well as the practice of analytic group psychotherapy with this and other disturbed populations.
On Psychoanalysis and Violence: Contemporary Lacanian Perspectives English | 2018 | ISBN: 1138346306, 1138346330 | 232 Pages | PDF | 2 MB
Psychoanalysis has not examined violence as such since it is a sociological and criminological concept; psychoanalysis is concerned with speech. On Psychoanalysis and Violence brings together noted Lacanian psychoanalysts and scholars to fill an important gap in psychoanalytic scholarship that addresses what the contributors term the "angwash" of our current time. Today violence is everywhere. We are inundated with it, exhausted by it, bombarded by images and reports of it on a daily, even hourly basis. This book examines how psychoanalysis can account for the many manifestations of violence in contemporary society. Drawing on a broadly Lacanian perspective, the authors explore violence in war, terrorism, how the media portrays violence, violent video games, questions of identity, difference and the 'other'; violence narratives and violence and DSM, and explain how to account for how violence arises and the effect it has on us on both an individual and social level. These are just some of the daily social realities of the present day whose aggression are felt by everyone, which horrify us and which we often feel powerless to change. The contributors have therefore coined a term for this cultural malaise: "angwash", arguing that we are awash in angoisse or anxiety, in a constant panic regarding the impossible and contradictory demands of a "civilization" in crisis. On Psychoanalysis and Violence will be of great interest to Lacanian psychoanalysts and psychoanalytic psychotherapists.
