Many providers have difficulty implementing exposure-based
cognitive behavioral therapy for youth with anxiety and
obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), despite it being the leading
treatment for this condition. Exposure Therapy for Children with
Anxiety and OCD: Clinician's Guide to Integrated Treatment provides
a step-by-step framework for how providers apply exposure therapy
in practice. The book begins with empirical support for the
treatment followed by suggested implementation of exposures for
specific conditions and ages. Tables of sample exposures and case
illustrations are provided throughout the book and common
challenges that may complicate implementation are addressed.
Intended for busy providers to implement directly into practice,
chapters provide clinical excerpts and illustrate techniques in an
easy "how-to" format.
Empirical and anecdotal data suggests that education technology
increases access to learning, democratizes knowledge, and increases
the breadth and richness of the learning experience. Due to this,
there is a need to disseminate awareness and information about the
role of emotional intelligence and technology from various
dimensions to help students and teachers maintain the quality of
e-learning and emotional well-being. Technology-Driven E-Learning
Pedagogy Through Emotional Intelligence provides updated research
perspectives focusing on the relationship between e-learning
pedagogy, technology, and emotional intelligence. Covering key
topics such as blended learning, resilience, social awareness, and
empathy, this reference work is ideal for administrators,
researchers, scholars, academicians, practitioners, instructors,
and students.
In this revelational book of self-discovery, Clinical Psychologist
Dr. Bita introduces the concept of Lifestyle Amnesia, a state of
mind and being that deprives one from experiencing beauty.
According to Dr. Bita, the vast majority of humans suffer from this
condition, a state of unawareness she says functions on autopilot.
Dr. Bita defines another kind of beauty aside from physical beauty,
which she calls beauty in its experiential form. This is the beauty
of sensual and mindful experiences. In conjunction, our mind and
our senses are the keys to experiencing beautiful aspects of
everyday life. The author explains that this beauty is not
superficial, but it can be obtained when one embraces a conscious
state of near total awareness of the present. The reader is
encouraged to identify the signs of Lifestyle Amnesia and is
provided helpful, practical tips to conquer it. Furthermore, the
impact of parental Lifestyle Amnesia on children and teens is given
special attention. Dr. Bita is the founder and clinical director of
a world-renowned clinical network, Dr. Bita's Network (DBN). Her
network includes many clinics and spans Canada. Dr. Bita has made
numerous scientific contributions, most famously on that of the
psychological effects of immigration. Following the fall of the
Soviet Union and the Berlin Wall, Western Europe experienced an
influx of immigrants; Dr. Bita has helped thousands of those
immigrants settle and integrate, thanks to her study. Today she
continues to do so, in Canada. Publisher's website: http:
