        A Childhood with ADHD

        by Daniela Chirici

        “Your child is out of control: they do whatever they want to you!” or “ADHD? There’s no such thing! You’re just not raising your child properly. The problem is you, not the child.” Do these phrases sound familiar to you? Are you questioning whether you are a good mother or father, since your child is not the way society demands and expects?  Daniela Chirici is familiar with both the attacks and with the self-doubt. Her oldest son was diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) at an early age. For ten years, until her son reached the age of 19, she regularly wrote for the Swiss ADHD organization. In her texts, she describes how it is to be out and about with a child affected by ADHD and what it means for the whole family. For:• parents, grandparents, and other relatives of childrenaffected by ADHD• teachers• therapists• anyone who wants to find out more about ADHD

        Attention-Deficit / Hyperactivity Disorder in Adults

        Attention-Deficit / Hyperactivity Disorder in Adults

        by Brian P. Daly, Elizabeth Nichollos, Ronald T. Brown

        Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder that emerges during childhood. However, it is now well recognized that ADHD frequently persists over the lifespan and well into adulthood. Without appropriate symptom management, ADHD can significantly interfere with academic, emotional, social, and work functioning. When properly identified and diagnosed, however, outcomes in adults with ADHD who receive appropriate treatment are encouraging. This volume in the Advances in Psychotherapy series is both a compact “how to” reference, for use by professional clinicians in their daily work, and an ideal educational reference for practice-oriented students. The most important feature of this volume is that it is practical and “reader friendly”. Target Group: clinical psychologists, psychiatrists, psychotherapists, counselors, students.

        Autism Spectrum Disorders in Adults

        A Practical Guide for Adults with ASD

        by Annelies Spek

        Lately, autism spectrum disorders (ASD) in adults have received more and more attention. A decade ago, autism was only recognised and diagnosed in children. Oddly enough, the fact that ASD could also occur in adults has been neglected for a long time. By now it has become clear that the symptoms of ASD change over the lifetime. Though people with ASD definitely have many strengths (eye for detail, perseverance, sincerity, a sense of humour, reliability, and consistency), they also have shortcomings. This book brings the reader up to date about ASD. In Part 1, the causes of ASD are described, both in nature and nurture. This part also includes a discussion about information processing in relation to ASD. Part 2 deals with the behavioural aspects as described in the DSM-5. In Part 3, several important themes are discussed, such as the diagnostic process, sexuality, gender differences, and changes that people with ASD experience throughout their lives.    ‘I wish I had read this book 15 years ago. I finally understand why people respond to me the way they do.’ Joost, diagnosed with ASD.   Target Group: adults with autism, relatives, therapists.

        High-functioning Depression

        The overlooked condition. An educational book

        by Michelle Hildebrandt

        The image many people have of depression is devastating - a chronic condition that leaves not only the sufferer but also their loved ones at a loss. Unfortunately, psychotherapies often focus on deficits rather than individual strengths and resources. Although this makes patients feel understood, there is a risk that they will become stuck in the role of victim. But what about those who seem to be functioning normally, those who masterfully hide their depression behind a smile? High-functioning depression" is often overlooked because people affected by it have good coping strategies to deal with everyday life. In this groundbreaking book, Dr Michelle Hildebrandt, a specialist in psychiatry and psychotherapy, shows how high-functioning depression can be recognised and how resource-oriented therapy can help not only those affected, but also other people with depression and their relatives. This book broadens the picture of depression and creates a space of hope.

        Intoduction to Affect Phobia Therapy

        by Dr. Quin van Dam

        A fear of one’s own emotions can lead people to develop what has been termed emotion- or affect phobia. To deal with this specific kind of phobia, Affect Phobia Therapy (APT) has proven to be useful. In APT, psychodynamic, cognitive behavioral, and experimental techniques are combined to help the patient to learn to accept and manage emotions again. Research shows that especially people suffering from anxiety or depression and people with avoidant or dependent personality disorders benefit from this method. This book offers a practical explanation of this evidence-based therapeutic method. The eight chapters focus on all different aspects of APT and the underlying theoretical concepts are illustrated with example patient-therapist dialogues.   Target Group: psychologists, psychotherapists, students

        Depression Is not SomethingThat Just Happens

        10 self-empowerment conceptsfor burnout, depression and trauma

        by Barbara Günther-Haug

        A crisis does not make a disease. It only becomes dangerous when we get stuck – in the ways of thinking and acting that are rooted in our fears and desires, but not in reality. That way, we wear ourselves out for nothing; exhaustion and frustration increase, and may even end in depression. This book sheds a light on ten main stress situations that may be the reason for depression. It goes far beyond the usual explanations of the symptoms of depression or individual stories, and is a treasure trove for people who want to understand what has caused them to wear themselves out mentally and how they can lift themselves out of this low.

        More Peace, Less Stress

        A Step-by-Step Guide for Adults with ASD

        by Marja Boxhoorn

        When you have autism, you probably have to cope with stress on a daily basis. Often, people with autism do not know how to recognize stress, what causes stress, and what they can do to reduce it. More peace, less stress offers a useful step-by-step plan. In seven steps, the reader learns what causes stress, how to recognise stress signals, and what they can do to feel more at ease. The book includes practical exercises so new knowledge can be applied right away. Being more at ease means to be able to: have better relationships with a partner, family, friends and colleagues, focus attention to get things done more easily, have a grip on life, instead of experiencing chaos, restlessness and insecurity and feel more powerful and have more self-esteem.

        ‘Survival Capitalism’ and the Big Bang

        Culture, contingency and capital in the making of the 1980s financial revolution

        by Emma Barrett

        This book about the Thatcher government and the City of London tells the compelling human story of the people and processes that made Britain's 1980s financial revolution. Fusing insider testimony with new archival discoveries, it examines high stakes and networked solutions, and uncovers new objectives that drove reforms. In so doing it demystifies a major shift in capitalism. This has implications for our understandings of government and capitalism, from the way we think about the origins of subsequent financial crises to today's growing inequalities. Survival Capitalism offers new insights into the last major restructuring of the City, disrupts myths surrounding the logics of the market, and pays attention to people and processes at a time when the City of London again faces major change as Britain seeks to find its place outside the European Union in the wake of Brexit.

        What is “Good” Dementia Care?

        What is “Good” Dementia Care?

        by Christoph Held

        People with dementia experience their condition as a big change in which, for example, new events are not linked to existing experiences and wishes, thoughts, and actions can no longer be connected to each other. This kind of experience of the self, due to the intergative function of the brainbeing temporarily or permanently lost, is called dissociative self-experience. Based on this understanding of dementia, the author develops an approach to effectively understand and support people with dementia in everyday activities. Typical everyday situations and behaviours are presented and reflected on in a practical context.
