        Schema Therapy

        by Jacob, Gitta; Arntz, Arnoud

        Schema therapy is an important further development of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for patients with personality disorders and other chronic mental health problems. In studies, work with the schema mode approach in particular has been shown to be highly effective. In the updated edition of this book, which in particular also reports current findings on the evidence, treatment with the mode model is presented in a practical manner. Numerous case examples illustrate the therapeutic approach. After an introduction to the core concepts of schema therapy, diagnostic and case conceptualization are addressed. Subsequently, the therapeutic procedure for each mode type is explained. Important emphasis is placed on the therapeutic relationship, which is conceptualized as a limited reparenting, and emotion-focusing techniques, such as chair dialogues and imaginative techniques. In these two respects, schema therapy differs particularly from classical CBT. Typical pitfalls and problems in schema therapy as well as possible variations of the approach are also described. Thus, the book offers a compact presentation of work with the schema approach to personality disorders.

        Behavioral Activation

        by Jürgen Hoyer, Lena V. Krämer

        Behavioral activation are classical behavioral therapy methods that aim at increasing the occurrence of behaviors that have a reinforcing effect in everyday life. They oftenprovide the starting point for further steps in therapy and for successful treatment. The goal is to enable patients to motivate themselves performing everyday actions independent of current moods and thus to learn a form of emotion regulation. In the field of depression treatment, behavioral activation is one of the standards of psychotherapy. Mood-lifting and stabilizing effects of reinforcing activities can counter typical depressive symptoms, such as withdrawal, passivity, and decreased drive. The book describes the method of behavioral activation, informs about its mode of action, and explains its concrete implementation in clinical practice. For:• medical and psychological psychotherapists• specialists in psychiatry and psychotherapy• specialists in psychosomatic medicineand psychotherapy• clinical psychologists• training candidates (psychologists, physicians)in psychotherapy• lecturers of training courses and institutesfor psychotherapy

        Heidnische Mysterien in der Renaissance

        by Edgar Wind, Christa Münstermann, Gisela Heinrichs, Bernhard Buschendorf, Bernhard Buschendorf, Bernhard Buschendorf

        Die Heidnischen Mysterien handeln vom »Bilddenken« des Neuplatonismus und von seinem glanzvollen Ausdruck in der Renaissancekunst. Heidnische Mythologie, christliche Bildersprache, religiöse Spekulation und philosophische Reflexion verschmelzen zu jener »poetischen Theologie«, deren verschiedene Ausprägungen bei Philosophen, Dichtern und bildenden Künstlern der Renaissance (unter besonderer Berücksichtigung des florentinischen Künstler- und Gelehrtenkreises um Lorenzo di Medici) aufgezeigt werden. Aus den Mosaiksteinen dieses Denkens rekonstruiert Wind allmählich das System eines »orphischen Pantheon« und lässt dabei seine ideengeschichtliche Explikation immer wieder in faszinierende Interpretationen bildkünstlerischer Werke der Renaissance münden.

        Chinese religion in contemporary Singapore, Malaysia and Taiwan

        The cult of the Two Grand Elders

        by Fabian Graham

        In Singapore and Malaysia, the inversion of Chinese Underworld traditions has meant that Underworld demons are now amongst the most commonly venerated deities in statue form, channelled through their spirit mediums, tang-ki. The Chinese Underworld and its sub-hells are populated by a bureaucracy drawn from the Buddhist, Taoist and vernacular pantheons. Under the watchful eye of Hell's 'enforcers', the lower echelons of demon soldiers impose post-mortal punishments on the souls of the recently deceased for moral transgressions committed during their prior incarnations. Chinese religion in contemporary Singapore, Malaysia and Taiwan offers an ethnography of contemporary Chinese Underworld traditions, where night-time cemetery rituals assist the souls of the dead, exorcised spirits are imprisoned in Guinness bottles, and malicious foetus ghosts are enlisted to strengthen a temple's spirit army. Understanding the religious divergences between Singapore and Malaysia (and their counterparts in Taiwan) through an analysis of socio-political and historical events, Fabian Graham challenges common assumptions about the nature and scope of Chinese vernacular religious beliefs and practices. Graham's innovative approach to alterity allows the reader to listen to first-person dialogues between the author and channelled Underworld deities. Through its alternative methodological and narrative stance, the book intervenes in debates on the interrelation between sociocultural and spiritual worlds, and promotes the destigmatisation of spirit possession and discarnate phenomena in the future study of mystical and religious traditions.

        Making Resources Count

        Practical Application of Resource Activation

        by Utta Deppe-Schmitz, Miriam Deubner-Böhme

        This title shows how resource activation can take place in behavioral therapy to enhance the patient’s well-being and improve problem solving processes. In resource oriented therapy, patients learn to regain sight of their resources since, unfortunately, many patients have lost sight of their resources so these cannot aid in the patient’s recovery and remains unused potential. Resource activation, therefore, has a positive impact on therapy. This practical handbook offers different interventions for resources activation for each phase of therapy and uses practical examples to outline the procedure. It introduces interventions for resource oriented therapy planning, activation of already existing resources, resource activation at the end of therapy as well as resource oriented therapy sessions. The CD contains worksheets and other materials that can be used to aid the described interventions. Target Group: psychotherapists, specialists in psychiatry and psychotherapie, specialists in psychosomatic medicine, clinical psychologists, psychological counselors, students and teachers of psychology.
