This book provides insight into the unique challenges facing Indian
and South Asian immigrants in the West-particularly in the United
States. It explores the "baggage" they carry; their expectations
versus the realities of negotiating a new cultural, social,
religious, and economic milieu; nostalgia and idealization of the
past; and the hybridity of existence. Within this context, the
author discusses factors which often contribute to
intergenerational family conflict among this population. Jacob
asserts that this conflict is largely a product of differences in
cultural values and identity, acculturation stress, and the
experience of marginality. After analyzing and interpreting
empirical data collected from two hundred families, he proposes the
"Praxis-Reflection-Action" (PRA) Model: a five-stage therapeutic
model and the first pastoral psychotherapeutic model developed for
the Asian Indians living in the West.
There is little else around in the literature aimed at the care of
humanitarian aid workers.
God loves us and wants us to love Him, each other, and ourselves.
God never intended anyone to be victimized, and it is important
that we love and respect ourselves, holding ourselves in high
regard. Domestic violence is sin, and violent interactions break
the greatest commandments. Violence is incompatible with love, and
that s why it is important to embrace God s word to find out
exactly what it says to us about God s love. Furthermore, we know
the Holy Spirit neither produces nor condones abuse, for love and
gentleness are Fruit of the Spirit according to Galatians. We are
precious to Him. We are valuable to God, and His sacrifice for us
proves that. No matter what we have been told, what experiences we
have had, what mistakes we have made, God loves us and wants us to
be loved. We do not have to labor in an arena God never intended
for us to labor in, He wants us to be free. If you are in a
relationship that threatens your mental and physical health, your
soul and your temple, seek guidance and strength from a God who
knows your struggle. He is ready to deliver you because you have
dwelt long enough on this mountain.
An esteemed teacher and former pastor, James W. Goll is one of the
leading prophetic voices of our time. Now, for the first time, he
offers his wisdom and insight in one accessible manual on the
challenging topic of deliverance. Among the subjects he covers are:
tools and practical help for overcoming the demonic
how to handle the raging battle of temptation
techniques to keep yourself refreshed during the fight
characteristics of demonic entities and their strategies
how to break curses
the healing qualities of blessings
and more
With a companion study guide also available, Goll's action-oriented
approach walks readers step by step through the process of freeing
both themselves and others from problems they cannot overcome. When
believers claim their authority in Christ, hope and healing can be
theirs.
Critical Moments in Executive Coaching examines the change process
supported by workplace and executive coaching, making use of
empirical evidence from the study of a range of real coaching
conversations and coaching relationships. It is both a complete
handbook that for the first time gives access to a global
qualitative research base in the field of executive coaching, and a
look behind the scenes into the practice of both inexperienced and
experienced coaches, their clients and their commissioners. Erik de
Haan allows the reader access to the wealth of Ashridge empirical
research in this field to date, alongside prominent research groups
around the world. This book provides practitioners with a range of
suggestions for their contracts, backed up by qualitative and
narrative research. It looks at what research is already telling us
about the value of coaching conversations and the impact of
critical 'moments of change' in coaching, from the perspectives of
coaches, clients, stakeholders and sponsors. The detailed research
findings outlined in the book are supplemented throughout by case
studies and snapshots of coaching moments as well as practical
advice and insights for those working in the field. The book also
brings forward innovative new models and concepts for coaches which
have emerged from research. Critical Moments in Executive Coaching
offers an evidence and research-based approach that will be of
great interest to coaches in practice and in training, students of
both undergraduate and graduate coaching programmes and those who
supervise and commission coaching.
Assessment and Treatment of Non-Suicidal Self-Injury: A Clinical
Perspective is the ideal primer for anyone who works with people
who self-injure. Profiling who is affected as well as what their
behaviour includes, the book explores the range of factors behind

need for self-regulation, and offers recommendations for both
assessment and outpatient treatment. Throughout, the book is
permeated by profound respect for those who use self-injury in an
attempt to live a good life, while conveying a deep understanding
of the challenges that self-injury presents for family members and
treatment professionals. It recognizes that the behaviour can
spread in hospital wards or other institutional setting,
introducing the concept of self-injury by proxy, and assesses the
range of therapies available, including CBT, MBT, ERGT and family
therapy. Each chapter is complemented by clinical vignettes. In an
era when a great number of professionals will come into contact
with someone who self-injures - including teachers, social workers
and nurses as well as therapists - The Assessment and Treatment of
Non-Suicidal Self-Injury is an invaluable resource that examines
both the causes and the treatments available.

This pioneering book explores the impact of ADHD on a couple's sex
life and relationship. It explains how a better sex life will
benefit your relationship (and vice versa) and why that's
especially important for couples with one partner with ADHD.
Grounded in innovative research, ADHD After Dark draws on data from
a survey of over 3000 adults in a couple where one partner has
ADHD. Written from the author's unique perspective as both an
expert in ADHD and a certified sex therapist, the book describes
the many effects of ADHD on couples' sex lives and happiness,
covering areas such as negotiating sexual differences, performance
problems, low desire, porn, making time for sex, infidelity, and
more. The book outlines key principles for a great sex life for
couples with ADHD and offers strategies and treatment interventions
where specific issues arise. Written in a readable and entertaining
style, ADHD After Dark offers clear information on sexuality and
relationships and is full of valuable advice on how to improve
both. This guide will be an essential read for adults with ADHD, as
well as their partners or spouses, and therapists who work with
ADHD clients and couples.
Many treatment programs and professional training efforts have
been developed in the past five years for sexual compulsiveness and
love dependencies. This work includes a description of an intensive
outpatient therapy program that is designed to treat the sexually
addicted patient. Initially, these patients had been treated with
individual psychotherapy and attendance at Sex and Love Addicts
Anonymous meetings. While this approach seemed to work for some,
many needed a more intensive therapeutic intervention to help them
identify and maintain bottom line behaviors and to begin the
recovery process from this difficult addiction.
A program was designed with the following elements:
psychoeducational groups, same-sex group psychotherapy, and 12-Step
meetings. Some of these educational sessions have covered: adult
sexuality, self-esteem, communication skills, shame, depression,
cross addictions, healthy relationships, the addiction cycle, and
so on. In addition to lectures there are group and dyad/triad
discussions, role playing, and psychodrama. This is followed by
traditional group therapy, although groups are limited to the same
sex. At the end of the intensive evening program, there is a
meeting of Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous (SLAA) that is open to
the public. This is the only book that addresses diagnostic,
neurochemical, and treatment issues of sexual compulsivity in such
depth.
This book provides a comprehensive overview of the professional
development of counselors and therapists over the career lifespan.
Drawing on their own extensive experience as psychotherapists,
supervisors, teachers, and researchers, as well as from their own
extensive study of the topic, previously published in their 1992
book The Evolving Professional Self, the authors aim to provide an
update of their work that all counselors and psychotherapists will
find valuable and useful. Readers are provided with empirically
based conceptual knowledge that can increase their awareness of the
central issues in professional development, allowing them to
monitor their own development. The authors discuss the concept of
development and review the research literature on practitioner
development, and then provide detailed descriptions of its six
phases. Aspects of each phase addressed include the developmental
tasks unique to that phase; the sources of influence and the
learning process which impacts therapeutic work and a sense of
development; the perception of the professional role and working
style; and therapists measures of effectiveness and satisfaction.
All of this is augmented with quotes and illustrative examples from
participants in the authors research studies. The book includes
knowledge generated from research on master therapists and from the
Society for Psychotherapy Research/Collaborative Research Network.
The book also considers themes of professional development;
struggles faced by novice practitioners; patterns of practitioner
resiliency; and ways to improve training, supervision, and
practice.
Perspectives on a Young Woman's Suicide is a unique and updated
analysis of a diary left behind by "Katie," a young woman who took
her own life. By drawing on clinicians, researchers, survivors of
suicide loss, and those closest to Katie, this book delves into
common beliefs about why people die by suicide and into the
internal worlds of those who do, as well as ethical and moral
questions surrounding those deaths. Several contributors discuss
Katie's suicide from the perspective of recent theories of suicide,
including Joiner's interpersonal theory and Klonsky's three-step
theory. Two contributors who have lost a child to suicide look at
Katie's diary from their perspective, one of whom discusses whether
it is truly possible to prevent suicide. Finally, Katie's sister
reveals her reactions to this project and her ex-boyfriend shares
his account of her death. This book is a vital addition to the
library of any researcher, academic, or professional interested in
suicide and suicide prevention.

Contemporary writers position 'dialogue' at the heart of change
theory, but what do we mean by 'dialogue'? The Tao of Dialogue
explains through story what dialogue means, and how to leverage
dialogic principles in managing relationships within the workplace.
Accessible and innovative, The Tao of Dialogue explains the basic
principles of dialogue, defined as a way of thinking and reflecting
together with others, through the story of Michael, the CEO of a
company about to embark on a life-changing journey. In the first
half of the book, he is introduced to the idea of dialogue by
Hannah, an internal change practitioner working within the
organisation. He is encouraged to engage in dialogue with those he
seeks to influence, which requires him to examine his mindset and
proactively make changes to the ways in which he is communicating
with his team and the wider organisation. In the second half of the
book Michael is assisted by Mark, an external consultant with
expertise in dialogic team and organisational development, who
helps him apply dialogic principles to leading his team. Engaging
yet practical, each part concludes with a summary of the dialogue
that has taken place and how the model can be used in the real
world, as well as an overview of the journey of the organisation,
team and individuals. Emerging from dialogue between seven
experienced, international coaches, The Tao of Dialogue will be of
interest to coaches in practice and training, as well as business
leaders, HR and L&D professionals and consultants. It explains
in simple terms how to transform human relationships, both
one-to-one and team/group. It will also appeal to academics and
students of coaching, executive development, change management and
leadership development.
