Cognitive Behaviour Therapy: A Practical Guide to Helping People
Take Control explores the premise that negative beliefs play an
important role in the development and continuation of mental health
problems. The book offers a new integrative model of causality for
instigating change, based on giving clients control and choice over
these beliefs, and therefore over their mood and behaviour. This
practical guide also focuses on the stigmas often attached to
people with 'mental illness'. Danny C. K. Lam suggests that by
providing both the client and the general public with a more
accurate understanding of the nature and causes of mental health
problems it is possible to de-stigmatise the 'mental illness'
label. This will help the client improve self-esteem and the
ability to manage personal and interpersonal difficulties and take
control of their problems and responsibility for recovery. Divided
into six parts, this book covers: stigma, prejudice and
discrimination from societal perspectives the nature and cause of
emotional upsets a therapeutic framework for change self-prejudice,
personal and interpersonal issues good and bad methods of
communication practical approaches to assessing problems methods of
taking control. This cognitive behavioural approach to mental
health problems is an innovative contribution to the field.
Illustrated throughout with clinical examples and practical advice,
the book is essential reading for all of those involved in mental
health, from nurses to counsellors, and from medical practitioners
and social workers to ministers of religion.
This collection of essays examines the historical influence of
states in East Asia's political economies, and considers their
contributions to the ongoing social, economic and political
transformation of the countries in this region. They show that the
status of these so-called developmental states have evolved over
time, and that their role and capacity have been significantly
related to the social bases and cultural roots of the relevant
countries.
