However, many people still do not receive effective and timely treatment due to the low availability, accessibility, and acceptability of traditional counseling. In this study, we developed a scalable, effective, and accessible app to address the problems that arise in traditional face-to-face counseling and to treat common psychological problems such as mild depression that people experi- ence in their daily lives.

    Crisis Intervention in Child Abuse and Neglect U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families Administration on Children, Youth and Families National Center on Child Abuse and Neglect This manual was developed and produced by Circle Solutions, Inc., McLean, VA, under subcontract No. S-105-89-1730 with Westover Consultants, Inc. iii CRISIS INTERVENTION TREATMENT APPROACHES AND TECHNIQUES INTRODUCTION The following sections on eclectic knowledge, staying focused, treatment approaches, and techniques explain how to work with families beyond the initial assessment phase. A team approach to crisis intervention is desirable because each team member can develop some expertise in one or more of the following theories and in the best techniques to be used with differing client populations and crisis situations. ECLECTIC KNOWLEDGE BASE No one crisis intervention method will work with all clients, or even all the time with any one client. There are many different family structures, compositions, and culturally related belief systems. The eclectic crisis worker tries to understand and respect these diversities in families. In this chapter, various interconnecting theories are mentioned as they relate to an eclectic practice base. Practitioners must be flexible and willing to use any theoretical approach or technique that will work to benefit and stabilize a family in crisis. Articles and books have been written about the efficacy of eclectic practice in working with families.50 Such a viewpoint is expressed by the following quote from Crisis Intervention Book 2: The Practitioner’s Sourcebook for Brief Therapy: “The crisis counselor’s basic task is to help clients change those affective (feeling), cognitive (thinking), and behavioral (doing) patterns that hinder effective value clarification and rule making and to encourage constructive communication and appropriate role behavior.

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, IRVINE Generating Catharsis through Dance THESIS submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF FINE ARTS in Dance by Leslie Bitong Thesis Committee: Dr. Lisa Naugle, Chair Professor Loretta Livingston Professor Mary Corey 2017 © 2017 Leslie Bitong DEDICATION To my parents and friends my teachers who have taught me well those who have contributed to my life experiences, shaping my artistry “No art suffers more misunderstanding, sentimental judgment, and mystical interpretation than the art of dancing. Its critical literature, or worse yet its uncritical literature, pseudo-ethnological and pseudo aesthetic, makes weary reading. Yet this very confusion as to what dancing is- what it expresses, what it creates, and how it is related to the other arts, to the artist, and to the actual world- has a philosophical significance of its own.” Feeling and Form - Susanne Langer 1953 ii TABLE OF CONTENTS Page ACKNOWLEDGMENTS iv ABSTRACT OF THESIS v INTRODUCTION 1 A Brief Summary of the Choreography 3 CHAPTER 1: Review of Literature 5 CHAPTER 2: Methods 19 Beginning the Choreographic Process 19 Fear 22 Infatuation, Overdependence, and then Obsession 24 Loss 30 Catharsis 34 CHAPTER 3: Findings 39 CHAPTER 4: Concluding Thoughts 46 BIBLIOGRAPHY 50 iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS First and foremost, I would like to thank the Chair of my Thesis Committee, Dr. Lisa Naugle, who has taught me to be resourceful, be tenacious, and take risks. Dr. Naugle has encouraged and inspired me to create daring choreography, and has given me confidence to express myself in scholarly writing. She sets a stellar example for female dance professionals in academia with her adventurous spirit, open-mindedness, wild creativity, and ability to lead.

This was meant facetiously, but it can be used to point out some things about logotherapy. Whereas psychoanalysis stresses introspection and retrospection, logotherapy stresses the future and what is yet to be accomplished. It is a psychotherapy which strives to bring a person to an awareness of his position ia the world, help him find the specific meaning of his existence, and show hia the necessity of accepting the responsibility for living in the light of this meaning.

    Research support for psychodynamic constructs 6 Kenneth N. Levy1, John R. Keefe2 and Johannes C. Ehrenthal3 1Department of Psychology, Weill Cornell Medical College, Pennsylvania State University, University Park, PA, United States, 2Weill Cornell Medical College, University of Pennsylvania, University Park, PA, United States, 3Heidelberg University, Heidelberg, Germany Beginning with Freud, psychoanalytic theory has provided a number of clinically rich and useful concepts that illuminate our understanding of normative processes of the self and interpersonal relationships and of the development and treatment of psychopathology. Central to psychodynamics has been a focus on unconscious pro- cesses, subjective experience, and defensive processes, among others constructs. Contrary to common misconceptions, there is a great deal of empirical support for psychodynamic concepts, which we will survey in this chapter. Basic tenets and concepts There are a number of basic tenets and concepts that are central to psychodynamic theory. These include the idea that some mental processes, such as motives, desires, and memories, are not available to awareness or conscious introspection. This idea is often referred to as unconscious mental functioning or unconscious processing. Unconscious mental processes have evolved from a conceptual proposition based on clinical observations to a field of study in psychodynamic research (Westen, 1998) and have been integrated in research within social psychology (Dijksterhuis & Strick, 2016) and neurosciences (Soon, Brass, Heinze, & Haynes, 2008). While attention to unconscious mental life remains central to psychoanalytic or psychody- namic psychotherapy, much of our experience is available and accessible for intro- spection, reflection, and conscious decision making. As Wachtel (2005) has noted, consciousness is better conceptualized as a matter of degree of accessibility and articulation than as a discrete division between conscious and unconscious.

  • The History and Traditions of Clinical Supervision
    1 THE HISTORY AND TRADITIONS OF CLINICAL SUPERVISION The traditional literature of counselling supervision seems to lack uncertainty and timidity.
