Finally, an approach to trauma recovery that is truly different-not just repackaged behaviorism! Denice Adcock Colson introduces Etiotropic Trauma Management in a very down to earth and practical way. This innovative theory uses a five-phase structured process called Trauma Resolution Therapy to resolve trauma at the source, rather than merely managing the symptoms. This text shows how trauma affects the victim's identity and why "survival responses"-called symptoms by other theorists-are needed until the trauma is resolved. Counselors who think "etiotropically" are convinced that this totally unique concept in trauma recovery restores the individual's identity to its pre-trauma state. Stop Treating Symptoms and Start Resolving Trauma! offers hope for both victims and the caregivers trying to help them.

Born out of the excitement of a convergence of ideas and passions, this book provides a synthesis of the work of researchers, clinicians, and theoreticians who are leaders in the field of trauma, attachment, and psychotherapy. As we move into the third millennium, the field of mental health is in an exciting position to bring together diverse ideas from a range of disciplines that illuminate our understanding of human experience: neurobiology, developmental psychology, traumatology, and systems theory. The contributors emphasize the ways in which the social environment, including relationships of childhood, adulthood, and the treatment milieu change aspects of the structure of the brain and ultimately alter the mind.

Are you tired of gaining and losing the same 10, 20, 50, or 100 pounds over and over again? Imagine a life free from emotional eating. As recently as 10 years ago, I might have told you that it wouldn't be possible for me to get off the hamster wheel of weight loss and weight gain and live a life with a normal relationship with food. Despite a lifetime of frustration and hopelessness, I continued to pursue solutions, often getting stuck on the next quick-fix diet or exercise program. These solutions only gave me temporary relief, and despite intense willpower, the weight would somehow come back. My breakthrough came when I realized that healing had nothing to do with finding the right diet and everything to do with a journey of self-understanding and self-love, a journey that I cannot wait to share with you. What about you? Are you ready to start this journey? How might your life be different if you chose to read this book instead of the next hot diet book hitting the shelves? What might you let go of if you were not continuously focused on weight loss or the shameful feelings associated with weight gain? The Weight Within is your guide to healing the deep-rooted pain that emotional eating causes, both inside and out. At the end of this transformation, you will be ready to become the best version of yourself and stay that way - for good.

This unique resource helps therapists build their skills in schema therapy (ST) by applying ST techniques to themselves and reflecting on the experience. Designed for use by individuals or groups, the book harnesses the power of self-practice/self-reflection (SP/SR), an evidence-based training strategy. Twenty modules take therapists step by step through using ST to address a professional or personal problem--from establishing safety and creating a self-conceptualization to implementing mode change work, including cognitive, experiential, and behavioral pattern-breaking interventions. In a convenient large-size format, the book is illustrated with vivid therapist examples and features numerous reproducible worksheets and forms for doing the SP/SR exercises. Purchasers get access to a Web page where they can download and print the reproducible materials.ÿ ÿ
