Out of the Blue

A New Bedford Adventure

By: Grilo Lisa Grilo,Lisa Grilo

New Bedford, 1850. Young, strong-willed Eliza Mae Holmes risks her life helping slaves escape through the Underground Railroad. And even though danger prowls the city, Eliza refuses to stay home on this night and meets the man who will change her life forever. Eliza is saved from an unspeakable fate at the hands of a sadistic criminal by the benevolent and charismatic Charles DaFornas. Though she is instantly enthralled by the handsome Portuguese wine merchant, Eliza won't succumb to his charm. Love is for the faint of heart, after all, even though the very sight of Charles makes her heart sing. When Eliza's father arranges for Charles to take Eliza and her mother to England to meet her betrothed, Eliza resolves to stand strong against her growing feelings during the long sea voyage. But being so close to Charles, learning about his culture and his island home of Madeira, only draws her that much closer to him. For his part, Charles is struck by Eliza's strength, vitality, and incredible beauty. It is not long before the two succumb to their feelings and tumble headlong into love. But Eliza's betrothal still stands and with pressure from her mother to see the marriage through, she must make a devastating choice. Will Eliza find her inner strength and live according to her own truth, or will she lose the one man who has finally captured her heart?

The Limits of Consent

The Limits of Consent

Sexual Assault and Affirmative Consent

By: Lisa Featherstone,Cassandra Byrnes,Jenny Maturi,Kiara Minto,Renée Mickelburgh,Paige Donaghy

This open access book examines the ways that consent operates in contemporary culture, suggesting it is a useful starting point to respectful relationships. This work, however, seeks to delve deeper, into the more complicated aspects of sexual consent. It examines the ways meaningful consent is difficult, if not impossible, in relationships that involve intimate partner violence or family violence. It considers the way vulnerable communities need access to information on consent. It highlights the difficulties of consent and reproductive rights, including the use (and abuse) of contraception and abortion. Finally, it considers the ways that young women are reshaping narratives of sexual assault and consent, as active agents both online and offline. Though this work considers victimisation, it also pays careful attention to the ways vulnerable groups take up their rights and understand and practice consent in meaningful ways.

Drawing from Within

Using Art to Treat Eating Disorders

By: Lisa Hinz

Drawing from Within is an introductory guide for those wanting to explore the use of art with clients with eating disorders. Art therapy is a particularly effective therapeutic intervention for this group, as it allows them to express uncomfortable thoughts and feelings through artistic media rather than having to explain them verbally. Lisa D. Hinz outlines the areas around which the therapist can design effective treatment programmes, covering family influences, body image, self-acceptance, problem solving and spirituality. Each area is discussed in a separate chapter and is accompanied by suggestions for exercises, with advice on materials to use and how to implement them. Case examples show how a therapy programme can be tailored to the individual client and photographs of client artwork illustrate the text throughout. Practical and accessible to practitioners at all levels of experience, this book gives new hope to therapists and other mental health professionals who want to explore the potential of using art with clients with eating disorders.

Trauma Counseling, Second Edition

Theories and Interventions for Managing Trauma, Stress, Crisis, and Disaster

By: Lisa López Levers, PhD, LPCC-S, LPC, CRC, NCC

The only comprehensive text to focus on trauma, stress, crisis, and disaster counseling from a clinical practice perspective This overarching text, intended both for mental health practitioners-in-training and for practicing clinicians, focuses on the impact of stress, crisis, trauma, and disaster on diverse populations across the lifespan as well as on effective treatment strategies. The second edition is newly grounded in a "trauma scaffold," providing foundational information that therapists can build upon, step-by-step, to treat individuals affected by more complex trauma events. This resource newly addresses the mental health implications of COVID-19, which has had an enormous impact on multitudes of people since the beginning of the pandemic, its repercussions likely to continue for some time into the future. The text also is updated to provide the most recent diagnostic information regarding trauma in the DSM-5. Two new chapters address the confluence of crises related to anthropogenic climate change and the effects of mass violence. This unrivalled resource emphasizes stress management and crisis intervention skills as important building blocks for working with more complex issues of trauma and disaster. It underscores the idea that trauma must be approached from multiple perspectives and in multiple dimensions encompassing individual, community, societal, and systemic implications along with multicultural and diversity frames of reference. The text integrates the latest findings from neuropsychology and psychopharmacology with an emphasis on Polyvagal Theory. Additionally, the text highlights the importance of clinical supervision in trauma care and examines ethical dimensions and the need for self-care among trauma counselors. Purchase includes digital access for use on most mobile devices or computers. New to the Second Edition: Reconceptualizes the text with the concept of a "Trauma Scaffold" as a foundation upon which to understand and develop treatment for increasingly complex trauma events Addresses the COVID-19 pandemic and its profound effect on the mental health of vast numbers of people Includes two new chapters on the confluence of crises related to anthropogenic climate change and the effects of mass violence Includes PowerPoint slides to accompany an updated Instructor's Manual Key Features: Delivers both introductory and advanced clinical information addressing complex trauma Addresses trauma from a bioecological framework with emphasis on trauma-informed practices, multicultural pluralism, diversity, and social justice Considers neurobiological responses to trauma with new research and the contributions of Polyvagal Theory Examines individual, familial, community, society, and systemic understandings of stress, crisis, trauma, and disaster Includes a wealth of resources for further study, text boxes, and case studies to reinforce learning
