| self care group therapy: Startup Your Life Anna Akbari, 2016-12-27 A young entrepreneur and sociologist shows readers how to reach personal fulfillment using the same strategies that power Silicon Valley's greatest startups. As an entrepreneur, Anna Akbari learned that one of the best things about startups is their ability to “pivot” quickly—basically a euphemism for failing and starting over. And she quickly found that personal success is no different. It’s not just about developing and following the right process but also having a good idea. And that demands rigor and daily maintenance—far beyond a few positive affirmations. Like any Silicon Valley startup, the business of life is not as glamorous as its Instagram account would make it seem. What do you do when planning is not an option? When control is out of your reach? You isolate the small stuff, experiment constantly, and use the results to lay a more sustainable foundation for the future. You validate your idealized vision by testing it out in bite-sized increments. You see what sticks, integrate, and move forward. And inevitably, you experience a series of failures along the way, but those failures are key to your next success. Living a start up life is about maximizing flexibility and measuring on-going results, not avoiding failure or reaching one particular end goal. It's about embracing defeat, analyzing it, and failing up. In Startup Your Life, Akbari shows that after all, it's often the stumbles that pave the way for real happiness. |

| self care group therapy: Anger Management Marc Noblitt Ph.D., Jeffrey Charles Bruteyn Ph.D., 2019-01-24 Are you tired of anger management programs that are long on theory and short on practical steps to actually manage your anger? Then this is the book you need. Drawing on newly pioneered techniques in the burgeoning field of positive psychology, the authors share a comprehensive twelve-week anger management program. They share meaningful insights, including why it’s beneficial to transfer your desire to do something to an outside source (such as the judicial system), why choosing not to harm others makes it less likely they’ll harm you, and how cultivating a spirit of optimism can eliminate angry outbursts. They also examine myths surrounding anger, such as the idea that it is not inherited, that anger always leads to aggression, the idea that people must be aggressive to get what they want, that venting anger is always desirable, and more. The program incorporates the use of multiple anger styles, diet, yoga, and music therapy, making it easy to follow and customizable based on an individual’s needs. Whether you are running a group therapy session or working to resolve your own anger, this revolutionary program will help you achieve positive and lasting results. |

| self care group therapy: Addiction and the Vulnerable Self Edward J. Khantzian, Kurt S. Halliday, William E. McAuliffe, 1990-08-03 The Harvard Cocaine Recovery Project, a National Institute on Drug Abuse-funded randomized clinical trial, was initiated in 1986 to compare different approaches for treating cocaine abusers. Modified Dynamic Group Therapy (MDGT), one of the models used in the study, is a short-term supportive-expressive psychodynamic group approach specifically adapted for cocaine addicts. While many previous studies of substance abuse treatment were compromised by extraordinarily high dropout rates, this approach retained nearly 70% of group members for the entire length of treatment. This book describes MDGT and provides a practical guide to implementation. Based on an understanding of the psychological vulnerabilities of addicts, the MDGT model addresses the modifications in psychodynamic technique that are necessary for addicts' needs. It focuses on four main areas of difficulty involving self-regulation; affect, self-esteem, relationship, and self-care problems. Both supportive and expressive, the approach helps group members identify, process, and modify the characterological traits that mask addict's vulnerabilities. With this approach, a well-led group can heighten self-esteem, improve self-care, combat feelings of isolation and shame, and strengthen the individual's capacity for positive change. Concomitant involvement with an individual therapist/counselor is encouraged as a means to support and facilitate the group therapy, especially early in group treatment, and to maintain a flexible individual and group treatment context for self-exploration and understanding. Bringing the model to life are detailed vignettes and transcripts of groups in different phases of recovery. These cases demonstrate techniques, illustrate technical issues, and illuminate major themes that unfold during treatment. |
| self care group therapy: Solution Focused Group Therapy Linda Metcalf, 1998 In our managed care era, group therapy, long the domain of traditional psychodynamically oriented therapists, has emerged as the best option for millions of Americans. However, the process can be frustratingly slow, and studies show that patients actually feel worse after months of group treatment than when they began. Can and should the group speed a person's progress? Now, in this must have book, marriage and family therapist Linda Metcalf persuasively argues that the collaborative nature of group therapy actually lends itself to time-limited treatment. She combines the best elements of group work and the popular solution focused brief therapy approach to create new opportunities for practitioners and patients alike.Among the topics covered in this valuable guide are: how to learn the model how to design a group and recruit members how to identify exceptions to a group member's self-destructive behaviors and thoughts how to help members focus on their successes rather than their failures how to keep the group solution focused when therapists or members fall back into old patterns This unique resource also includes case examples and session transcripts to follow, together with reproducible forms that can be used as they are or tailored to a therapist's needs.Solution Focused Group Therapyis an up-to-the-minute, highly accessible resource for therapists of any orientation. Managed care companies in particular will welcome this model, which deals so effectively and economically with today's biggest problems, including eating disorders, chemical dependencies, grief, depression, anxiety, and sexual abuse. |

| self care group therapy: Leading Peer Support and Self-Help Groups: A Pocket Resource for Peer Specialists and Support Group Facilitators Charles Drebing, 2016 There were more visits to peer support/self-help groups last year, than there were visits to the offices of mental health professionals.

| self care group therapy: Group Christie Tate, 2020-10-27 A REESE’S BOOK CLUB PICK * NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER The refreshingly original and “startlingly hopeful” (Lisa Taddeo) debut memoir of an over-achieving young lawyer who reluctantly agrees to group therapy and gets psychologically and emotionally naked in a room of six complete strangers—and finds human connection, and herself. Christie Tate had just been named the top student in her law school class and finally had her eating disorder under control. Why then was she driving through Chicago fantasizing about her own death? Why was she envisioning putting an end to the isolation and sadness that still plagued her despite her achievements? Enter Dr. Rosen, a therapist who calmly assures her that if she joins one of his psychotherapy groups, he can transform her life. All she has to do is show up and be honest. About everything—her eating habits, childhood, sexual history, etc. Christie is skeptical, insisting that that she is defective, beyond cure. But Dr. Rosen issues a nine-word prescription that will change everything: “You don’t need a cure. You need a witness.” So begins her entry into the strange, terrifying, and ultimately life-changing world of group therapy. Christie is initially put off by Dr. Rosen’s outlandish directives, but as her defenses break down and she comes to trust Dr. Rosen and to depend on the sessions and the prescribed nightly phone calls with various group members, she begins to understand what it means to connect. “Often hilarious, and ultimately very touching” (People), Group is “a wild ride” (The Boston Globe), and with Christie as our guide, we are given a front row seat to the daring, exhilarating, painful, and hilarious journey that is group therapy—an under-explored process that breaks you down, and then reassembles you so that all the pieces finally fit. |

| self care group therapy: Group CBT for Psychosis Tania Lecomte, Claude Leclerc, Til Wykes, 2016 Psychosis implies an alteration of one's reality, with specific beliefs and sensory experiences that affect one's judgment and capacity to function socially. Previously, medication alone was believed to attenuate or eliminate psychotic symptoms; however, more than two decades of empirical evidence now support the use of cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) for psychosis, including group CBT for psychosis. Group CBT for Psychosis offers the first published group therapy module of its kind and is suitable for a broad range of mental health professionals. Group therapy for people with psychosis is often recommended given its cost-efficiency and indirect benefits such as improved social skills and social support, yet delivery of this group intervention necessitates specialized skills and knowledge not typically included as part of most clinical training programs. This book offers thorough descriptions of relevant techniques, clinical vignettes, and worksheets for use in group sessions. Individual chapters focus on the basics of CBT for psychosis, essential elements of group therapy, explaining the CBT model in a group context, techniques for various symptoms, measuring change, common obstacles to group CBT for psychosis, and much more. Group CBT for Psychosis will be a valuable resource for psychiatrists, psychologists, psychiatric nurses, occupational therapists, social workers, and graduate students in these fields. Professors and supervisors teaching clinical skills, such as how to run groups or how to conduct CBT in groups with people with psychotic disorders, will also find this book very useful. |
| self care group therapy: Simple Self-Care for Therapists: Restorative Practices to Weave Through Your Workday Ashley Davis Bush, 2015-06-15 “Bite-sized” self-care strategies that any therapist can easily practice. For mental health professionals who must regularly guard against compassion fatigue and secondary traumatization, intentional self-care isn’t just essential; it’s a survival tool. If therapists don’t take proper care of themselves, they can’t do their work effectively. Taking up an exercise program, going on a vacation, turning to supportive social networks, while helpful remedies to the stresses of the job, are not always feasible and the results are often only short term. Synthesizing the latest thinking in mindfulness, neuroscience, energy medicine, and spiritual disciplines, Simple Self-Care for Therapists offers immediate relief in doable, bite-sized nuggets—easy exercises that can be seamlessly integrated into your current workday routine with little fuss. Over 60 restorative practices are presented—tools for (1) grounding, (2) energizing, and (3) relaxing—organized as antidotes to the most common pathologies that therapists suffer: vicarious trauma, compassion fatigue, and burnout. Bush, a therapist with over 25 years of experience, walks readers through the descriptions and simple implementation of each practice, with illuminating stories from her own professional experiences. Whether you’re in a staff meeting, conducting a therapy session, writing a progress report, or attending a workshop, these convenient exercises can be dipped into as needed. A go-to resource of self-care tools, every therapist, no matter their background or approach, now has the ability to prevent stress, avoid internalization, revive their spirit, and restore a sense of well-being. |

| self care group therapy: Living Through Loss Nancy R. Hooyman, Betty J.

| self care group therapy: PSYCHOLOGICAL SUPPORT BY COGNITIVE BEHAVIORAL THERAPY FOR SPONDYLOEPIPHYSEAL DYSPLASIA Edenilson Brandl, Spondyloepiphyseal Dysplasia is a complex and life-altering condition, presenting not only significant physical challenges but also emotional and psychological hurdles that can deeply affect one's quality of life. As a genetic disorder primarily impacting bone growth and development, it often leads to chronic pain, physical limitations, and a range of associated health issues. However, the psychological toll of coping with a lifelong condition like Spondyloepiphyseal Dysplasia is often overlooked. This book aims to bridge that gap by providing a comprehensive guide to psychological support, focusing on the integration of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques to help individuals navigate the mental and emotional aspects of living with this condition. The journey of living with a genetic disorder can feel isolating and overwhelming. Patients are not only dealing with physical symptoms but also grappling with the psychological impact of their condition, from feelings of helplessness and frustration to anxiety and depression. The pressure to stay positive in the face of constant pain and uncertainty can become an additional burden, as can the fear of discrimination or the worry about passing the condition on to future generations. With so many emotional and cognitive challenges intertwined with the physical symptoms, there is a clear need for a structured, evidence-based approach to mental health support. In this book, we explore how Cognitive Behavioral Therapy—a proven, practical approach to mental health care—can be used to manage the psychological impact of Spondyloepiphyseal Dysplasia. CBT offers powerful tools for addressing distorted thoughts, managing stress, and cultivating resilience in the face of adversity. It helps individuals identify and change negative thought patterns, develop coping skills, and ultimately regain a sense of control over their lives. The first sections of this book provide a solid foundation in the biological and genetic aspects of Spondyloepiphyseal Dysplasia, as well as an introduction to the principles of CBT. From there, we delve into the practical application of CBT techniques, offering specific tools and strategies that patients, caregivers, and therapists can use to alleviate emotional distress and improve overall well-being. The chapters on pain management, which include detailed discussions of various pain sources related to the condition, aim to provide not only physical but also emotional relief through the use of CBT tools. Whether you are a patient, a family member, a healthcare provider, or a therapist, this book is designed to be a comprehensive resource. It guides you through the interconnected world of physical health, genetics, and psychological well-being, providing strategies that are both practical and compassionate. Spondyloepiphyseal Dysplasia presents unique challenges, but with the right tools and support, it is possible to lead a fulfilling and emotionally balanced life. It is my hope that this book serves as a beacon of understanding and empowerment, offering valuable insight into the ways we can address both the body and the mind on the path to healing and acceptance. |
| self care group therapy: PSYCHOLOGICAL SUPPORT BY COGNITIVE BEHAVIORAL THERAPY FOR HUNTINGTON'S DISEASE Edenilson Brandl, Huntington's disease (HD) is a complex neurodegenerative disorder that not only affects the body but profoundly impacts the mental and emotional well-being of individuals and their families. The progression of HD brings about unique challenges, from genetic inheritance concerns to psychological trauma, all of which necessitate comprehensive, personalized support. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) has proven to be an essential tool in helping individuals cope with the mental and emotional strain that accompanies a diagnosis of Huntington's disease, making this book a vital resource for those affected. The purpose of this book is to bridge the gap between the biological understanding of Huntington's disease and the psychological tools available to manage its emotional toll. Drawing from both the latest scientific research in genetics and the practical application of CBT, this work aims to offer a holistic approach to improving the mental health and quality of life for individuals and families dealing with Huntington's disease. Through detailed explanations of the disease itself and practical guidance on CBT techniques, this book provides a roadmap for managing the emotional, cognitive, and physical aspects of the condition. This work is designed to support not only patients but also their caregivers, healthcare professionals, and therapists. It serves as a comprehensive guide, addressing everything from the fundamental biology of HD to practical, evidence-based strategies for pain management, emotional regulation, and cognitive restructuring. Special attention is given to the unique psychological challenges presented by Huntington's disease, such as feelings of loss, societal misconceptions, and the pressures of genetic inheritance. By combining scientific insights with therapeutic practices, this book aims to offer both hope and practical solutions. My intention is to empower those on this journey with the tools they need to manage the psychological complexities of Huntington's disease, creating space for resilience, understanding, and ultimately, healing. |
| self care group therapy: Positive CBT Fredrike Bannink, Nicole Geschwind, 2021-11-30 Positive CBT integrates positive psychology and solution-focused brief therapy within a cognitive-behavioral framework. It focuses on building what's right, not on reducing what is wrong. Learn about the evidence-base for positive CBT Teach clients what works for them with the treatment protocols Download client workbooks More about the book Positive CBT integrates positive psychology and solution-focused brief therapy within a cognitive-behavioral framework. It focuses not on reducing what is wrong, but on building what is right. This fourth wave of CBT, developed by Fredrike Bannink, is now being applied worldwide for various psychological disorders. After an introductory chapter exploring the three approaches incorporated in positive CBT, the research into the individual treatment protocol for use with clients with depression by Nicole Geschwind and her colleagues at Maastricht University is presented. The two 8-session treatment protocols provide practitioners with a step-by-step guide on how to apply positive CBT with individual clients and groups. This approach goes beyond simply symptom reduction and instead focuses on the client's desired future, on finding exceptions to problems and identifying competencies. Topics such as self-compassion, optimism, gratitude, and behavior maintenance are explored. In addition to the protocols, two workbooks for clients are available online for download by practitioners.

Parks, 2013 Positive psychology is a rapidly expanding area of study that is of great interest to students at the graduate, undergraduate, and high school levels.
