Selected as an Outstanding Academic Title by Choice Magazine, January 2010 From the depressed and lonely college student to the business executive at midlife experiencing decreasing levels of career satisfaction to the couple where one partner has been unfaithful in the relationship, counselling is the intervention that numerous individuals turn to each year as the challenges and stress of daily living exceed their normal coping abilities. Counselling is practised by counsellors, social workers, psychiatric nurses, psychologists, and psychiatrists. Counseling is to be differentiated from psychotherapy in that the latter deals more with mental illnesses and psychological disorders while the former is more concerned with normative stresses, adjustment difficulties, and life transitions (e.g., adjusting to unemployment or going through a divorce).

Meanie Mouse Versus the Orlando Operators

The Adventure Begins

By: Frederick Malphurs

An in-vitro fertilization accident results in the birth of a very special, unique person, our heroine, Melanie Moody. She transforms herself into a beautiful, brilliant, hard working and slightly demented justice-for-all superhero. As she strives to create a better world, she helps those she finds in need and vows to protect the underdog. The setting for this story is Orlando in Central Florida. The world capital of family entertainment, fun, magic, imagination and thrills, Orlando is enjoyed by millions of people who visit every year. But, just out of their sight, hidden behind the subtropical beauty lies another playground where real people work, live, and die. When the cold, dead body of a beautiful Russian migr is found naked in Orlando's finest hospital, the pressures of that alternate reality begin to burst into the carefully fabricated fantasy world that the powers that be and the tourists love. Pro football attracts the attention of our heroine. From the naked dead woman to the professional football field, Melanie leaves no stone unturned as she begins to unravel the clues that point her to the killer. She emerges from the shadows to become Orlando's heroine, Meanie Mouse.

Evidence of Things Not Seen

Fantastical Blackness in Genre Fictions

By: Rhonda D. Frederick

Evidence of Things Not Seen: Fantastical Blackness in Genre Fictions is an interdisciplinary study of blackness in genre literature of the Americas. The “fantastical” in fantastical blackness is conceived by an unrestrained imagination because it lives, despite every attempt at annihilation. This blackness amazes because it refuses the limits of anti-blackness. As put to work in this project, fantastical blackness is an ethical praxis that centers black self-knowledge as a point of departure rather than as a reaction to threatening or diminishing dominant narratives. Mystery, romance, fantasy, mixed-genre, and science fictions’ unrestrained imaginings profoundly communicate this quality of blackness, specifically here through the work of Barbara Neely, Colson Whitehead, Nalo Hopkinson, and Colin Channer. When black writers center this expressive quality, they make fantastical blackness available to a broad audience that then uses its imaginable vocabularies to reshape extra-literary realities. Ultimately, popular genres’ imaginable possibilities offer strategies through which the made up can be made real.

The Day He Left

By: Frederick Weisel

After he was gone, the only things left behind were secrets Annie has fallen out of the habit of listening to her husband. She and Paul have been married for a long time; it's easy to nod as he drones on, responding to his voice while completely ignoring every word he says. That becomes a problem, of course, when Paul disappears and the police have questions. Was Paul having issues at work? Is there any reason to think he might harm himself? Annie doesn't know. But someone does. An unsettling photo found amongst Paul's things turns the investigation toward his job as a middle school teacher and a troubled girl who is hiding secrets of her own. But what exactly happened to Paul on the day he left for work and never made it to the classroom? Is his disappearance related to a local heroin trafficking operation? As Eddie Mahler and the members of the Santa Rosa Violent Crime Investigations Team rush to find the teacher, they discover the members of his family have hidden lives of their own, and that Paul may not have been running away but toward something that could ruin his career and marriage—and even cost his life.
