This interdisciplinary volume offers theoretical, empirical, and
practical insights into the strengths of families beset by chronic
health issues. Featuring topics that run the lifespan from infancy
to late adulthood, its coverage reflects both the diversity of
family challenges in long-term illness and the wealth of effective
approaches to intervention. The component skills of resilience in
life-changing circumstances, from coping and meaning making to
balancing care and self-care, are on rich display in a framework
for their enhancement in therapy. The book's expert contributors
include tools to aid readers in the learning and teaching of
concepts as they model respectful, meaningful research methods and
ethical, non-judgmental practice. Among the topics covered: Helping
families survive and thrive through the premature birth of an
infant. Enhancing coping and resiliency among families of
individuals with sickle cell disease. A family science approach to
pediatric obesity treatment. Risk and resilience of children and
families involved with the foster care system. Strengthening
families facing breast cancer: emerging trends and clinical
recommendations. The unfolding of unique problems in later life
families. With its mix of practical and empirical expertise, Family
Resilience and Chronic Illness: Interdisciplinary and Translational
Perspectives has much to offer both researchers in the family
resilience field and mental health practitioners working with
clients with chronic illness.
