Whilst much has been written about the identification of resilience in children and their families, comparatively little has been written about what practitioners can do to support those children and families who need the most pressing help. Resilient Therapy explores a new therapeutic methodology designed to help children and young people find ways to keep positive when living amidst persistent disadvantage. Using detailed case material from a range of contexts, the authors illustrate how resilient mechanisms work in complex situations, and how resilient therapy works in real-life situations. In addition to work with families, helping welfare organisations achieve greater resilience is also tackled. This book will be essential reading for practitioners working with children, adolescents and their families who wish to help their clients cope with adversity and promote resilience.
Miniaturist, self builder and serial creative Angie, never did things quite the way anyone thought she should. This is the story of how challenging and also how rewarding life can be if you take an unconventional path and stick with it in spite of all indications that disaster is looming. Angie and her 'Computer Geek' husband Frank's exploits in England and Andalucía are unusual, maddening, cringe-worthy and sometimes very funny indeed. There are moments of triumph and moments of despair. And almost always a blind faith and a can do attitude. Woven through the whole story is her absolute passion for thinking up new creative ideas, sharing them and inspiring other people. This rags to rags autobiography is both a cautionary and joyful tale for anyone thinking of living a non-traditional creative life, or anyone contemplating making the big leap to another country in the belief that it will all work out.
