The Stop Program for Women: Handouts and Homework
This program addresses the rapidly increasing awareness of female domestic violence and need for quality treatment services. Developed and field-tested for over twenty-five years among military and civilian populations, this program integrates contemporary interventions and client-centered guidelines to treat domestic violence offenders-who happen to be female. Based on the acclaimed domestic violence treatment program STOP Domestic Violence, which focused on male domestic violence offenders, this book recognizes what is now being widely accepted, abuse is abuse regardless of gender, and must be treated. These worksheets and exercises, fully integrated with the main book, keep group members actively engaged in overcoming their abusive behaviors. Packaged as loose-leaf sheets, they can be added, removed, or rearranged to suit the needs of any leader administering the program. Worksheets are arranged by sessions which help abusers understand why what they are doing is abuse, and how to overcome what drives them to do so. The abusers are held accountable for their actions rather than blame the victims or various substances. Each session comes with clearly labeled questions for the abusers to answer in the session and as homework, providing structure for recovery both within the sessions and at home.Read more

Things that annoy me by Ruby Brady: Comic diary of a modern teenager dealing with her annoying parents (Ruby Brady Diaries)
** Suitable for Young Adults, Old Adults & Older Teens -NB: contains some swearing **
Ruby Brady is a typical modern teenager, surgically attached to her mobile phone, who is attempting to navigate her way through a social media-dominated world .. and she has plenty to be annoyed about. … She has a mother going through a spiritual awakening, endlessly searching for inner peace whilst counting down the hours to wine o’clock, and endlessly comparing her life to others on the internet. There is her hipster-hating stepdad, who constantly rants about millennials and vegans whilst harbouring delusions of rock stardom. Ruby’s journal follows her day-to-day life over 18 months starting in 2017, in a political landscape defined by Brexit and Trump. She faces the complexities of home life, friendships and school and attempts to understand her embarrassing parents and explain the modern world to her grandparents. A very lighthearted look at modern life in a time of Facebook, Instagram and Reality TV. It follows three generations of a family, as they all try to understand each other’s language use, interests and differences, all seen through the eyes of a teenage girl.Read more

Understanding Religion and Spirituality in Clinical Practice (The Society of Analytical Psychology Monograph Series)
Understanding Religion and Spirituality in Clinical Practice is a volume in the clinical practice monograph series from the Society of Analytical Psychology. This series is intended primarily for trainees on psychotherapy and psychodynamic counselling courses, and for those who are newly qualified. Here, the author considers the difficulties clinicians may encounter when patients talk about God or about their spiritual life, and how necessary it is for therapists to examine their own image of God and their own understanding of spirituality, so that they can distinguish these from those of their patients. She emphasizes how varied are people’s images and understanding of what “God” stands for, and how in healthy development these will change over time. The book demonstrates, through numerous clinical vignettes, how clinicians can understand a patient’s talking about religion or about God – hearing the voice of God, having a vision of God, or being convinced that God wants them to act in a particular way; or, equally, seeing the Devil.Read more

When Religion Hurts You: Healing from Religious Trauma and the Impact of High-Control Religion
Spiritual abuse is something that happens far more often than most people realize. In When Religion Hurts You, Dr. Laura Anderson takes an honest look at a side of religion that few like to talk about. Drawing from her own life and therapy practice, she helps readers understand what religious trauma is and isn’t, and how high-control churches can be harmful and abusive, often resulting in trauma. She shows how elements of fundamentalist church life―such as fear of hell, purity culture, corporal punishment, and authoritarian leaders―can cause psychological, relational, physical, and spiritual damage. As she explores the growing phenomenon of religious trauma, Dr. Anderson helps readers embark on a journey of living as healing individuals and finding a new foundation to stand on. Recognizing that healing is a lifelong rather than a linear process, she offers markers of healing for those coming out of painful religious experiences and hope for finding wholeness after religious trauma.Read more

When the Parents Change, Everything Changes: Seismic Shifts in Children’s Behaviour
‘Brilliant’ Kate Silverton, author of There’s No Such Thing As Naughty
‘An absolute game-changer’ Sarah Turner, aka The Unmumsy Mum
‘Fantastic’ Jake Humphrey, author of High Performance_
Your behaviour is the only behaviour over which you have absolute control. To change your children’s behaviour, you first need to change your own.
The culture of any home is determined by the parents. If you can remain unflappably calm in the face of every supermarket tantrum and sarcastic eye-roll, order will soon follow.
Here, Paul Dix – Britain’s leading children’s behaviour expert – reveals how to build a culture of calm consistency into your home, starting today. He explains how you really can maintain a sense of Zen-like serenity in the face of even the most chaotic behaviour, from school-gate screaming matches to mealtime childmageddon. And he offers a set of simple strategies for coolly getting the behaviour you want – without a barked instruction, deranged punishment or cold, hard cash-bribe in sight.
His tried-and-tested method will change what your child does by first changing what you do. You will never need to raise your voice again.
