Integrated Textbook of Geriatric Mental Health
by Donna Cohen Carl EisdorferAs the population ages, increasing numbers of older people require the attention and services of mental health professionals. Despite their prevalence, however, mental health problems in this population often go undiagnosed and therefore untreated. This textbook offers medical students and professionals the information they need to care for older people with mental disorders.Drs. Donna Cohen and Carl Eisdorfer, two internationally recognized experts in geriatric mental health, provide a comprehensive framework within which students and practitioners alike can address the salient issues of the field. These include the biopsychosocial aging processes, specific pathologies prevalent in later life, social issues common to the elderly, the delivery of care in various settings, and the economic policies affecting services for older people. The authors’ goal is not only to enhance clinical practice but also to urge physicians to develop and coordinate a more holistic care strategy that acknowledges the complex challenges of older patients. To this end, Cohen and Eisdorfer discuss essential principles of optimal care, the latest research findings, evidence- and consensus-based practice standards, resources to help professionals keep abreast of the changing mental health landscape, and ethical dilemmas of clinical practice and research. The signal strength of this book lies in its integrated approach, an approach that emphasizes the philosophy and principles of caring for older people along with clinical practices and issues. From this broader perspective, the authors describe the many factors that influence the lives, health, and well-being of older patients and their caregivers, making this an ideal text for psychiatrists, psychologists, nurses, and social workers.
Integrated Treatment for Co-Occurring Disorders: Personality Disorders and Addiction
by Sharon C. EkleberryIntegrated Treatment for Co-Occurring Disorders addresses a complex client population, which presents service providers with significant professional challenges. Underlying personality disorders compromise treatment effectiveness for medical, other psychiatric, or trauma services, as well as the ability these individuals have in adhering to probation, parole, or court-ordered treatment requirements. A co-occuring substance use disorder amplifies the difficulties experienced by personality-disordered individuals, exacerbates the precarious nature of their relationships, and raises the skill level needed by service providers attempting to help them. There can be significant professional satisfaction in working effectively with the interplay of addiction and disorders of personality. The book brings focus to the specifics of assessment and treatment for this type of co-occurring disorder and suggests that greater adaptability, fewer self-sabotaging behaviors, and an abstinent lifestyle are all possible. Recovery from both disorders is the journey these individuals take toward greater maturation, reliable impulse control, and coping skills that are not dependent upon the evasion of the demands of living or use of substances to manage stress or uncomfortable affect. Recovery is possible, and service providers can assist these clients on their path to wellness.
Integrated Treatment for Co-Occurring Disorders
by Jack KlottThe definitive guide to identify, assess, and create individualized treatment plans for high-risk clients who suffer from challenging co-occurring disorders"Treat the person and not the diagnosis.

An Integrated View of Health and Well-being: Bridging Indian and Western Knowledge (Cross-Cultural Advancements in Positive Psychology #5)
by A.N.Narayanan Nambi Antonio MorandiConcepts like Health and Well-being are not exclusive products of the Western culture. Research has widely demonstrated that the representation of the body and of its pathologies, as well as treatment and healing practices vary across cultures in relation to social norms and beliefs.The culture of India is a melting pot of nine main Darshanas, or philosophical systems, that share the common core of a realization of the self in society. India's traditional health system, Ayurveda, is a result of the practical application of the Darshanas to the observation of human nature and behavior. Ayurveda conceptualizes health, disease and well-being as multidimensional aspects of life, and it seeks to preserve a balance in individuals among their biological features, their psychological features and their environmental demands. The Ayurveda approach to health is remarkably similar to the eudaimonic conceptualization of well-being proposed by positive psychology, and the basic tenets of Ayurveda are deeply consistent with the latest developments of modern physics, which stresses the substantial interconnectedness among natural phenomena and their substrates. This text shows how the approach to health developed in Ayurveda can be fruitfully integrated in a general view of health and well-being that encompasses cultural and ideological boundaries. Specifically, it details the conceptualization of health as an optimal and mindful interaction between individuals and their environment.
Integratief opvoeden: Strategieën voor de opvoeding van kinderen met gehechtheidstrauma
by Debra Wesselmann Cathy Schweitzer Stefanie ArmstrongDit boek biedt specifieke opvoedstrategieën voor opvoeders van chronisch getraumatiseerde kinderen. Deze opvoedstrategieën zijn te gebruiken door ouders/pleegouders, familieleden en anderen die een kind verzorgen dat gehechtheidstrauma heeft meegemaakt. Ook kan het boek gebruikt worden door therapeuten om een behandeling te ondersteunen, waarbij EMDR en gezinstherapie wordt geïntegreerd (zoals IGT-K). Kinderen die nare gebeurtenissen hebben meegemaakt binnen hun gehechtheidsrelaties door mishandeling, verwaarlozing, medische ingrepen of uithuisplaatsingen ervaren intense pijn, angst en wantrouwen. Deze diepe gevoelens uiten zich vaak in ‘lastig’ gedrag, agressie en/of extreme geslotenheid, zelfs nadat de thuisomgeving is veranderd door adoptie, pleeggezinplaatsing, een voogdijmaatregel of het oplossen van problemen thuis. Integratief opvoeden geeft informatie over de invloed van gehechtheidstrauma op de hersenontwikkeling. Je krijgt vaardigheden en strategieën aangereikt die het functioneren van je kind kunnen verbeteren. Je zal leren hoe je benodigdheden om de gehechtheid te bevorderen (zoals affectie, emotionele afstemming en spel) kunt inzetten om de kloof tussen jou en je kind te overbruggen. Mindfulness en strategieën om de hersenen van je kind te kalmeren zullen je kind ondersteunen om te reflecteren op zijn eigen gedachten, gevoelens en keuzes. Hierdoor leert hij om op een effectievere manier beslissingen te gaan maken. Het oorspronkelijke boek Integrative Parenting werd geschreven door ervaren therapeuten uit de Verenigde Staten: Debra Wesselmann, Cathy Schweitzer en Stefanie Armstrong. Integratief opvoeden is de Nederlandse editie. De vertaling en bewerking is verzorgd door Nathalie Schlattmann, klinisch psycholoog, EMDR- en TF-CBT supervisor, Mara van der Hoeven, orthopedagoog en onderzoeker, en Irma Hein, kinderpsychiater en onderzoeker. Alle drie zijn zij verbonden aan Levvel, specialisten voor jeugd en gezin, te Amsterdam.

Integrating Emotions and Cognition Throughout the Lifespan
by Gisela Labouvie-ViefThis book synthesizes the literature on emotional development and cognition across the lifespan. The book proposes a core language by which to describe positive and problematic developmental changes by recourse to a parsimonious set of core principles, such as elevations or declines in tension thresholds and their relation to the waxing and waning of the cognitive system over the life course. It integrates, similarly, the lifelong consequences of the positive or damaging aspects of the social milieu in fostering increases in tension thresholds with their advanced capacity for maintaining equilibrium and warding off stress versus a lowering of tension thresholds with disturbances of equilibrium maintenance and heightened susceptibility to stress and deregulation.

Integrating Face and Voice in Person Perception
by Pascal Belin Thomas Ethofer Salvatore CampanellaThis book follows a successful symposium organized in June 2009 at the Human Brain Mapping conference. The topic is at the crossroads of two domains of increasing importance and appeal in the neuroimaging/neuroscience community: multi-modal integration, and social neuroscience. Most of our social interactions involve combining information from both the face and voice of other persons: speech information, but also crucial nonverbal information on the person's identity and affective state. The cerebral bases of the multimodal integration of speech have been intensively investigated; by contrast only few studies have focused on nonverbal aspects of face-voice integration. This work highlights recent advances in investigations of the behavioral and cerebral bases of face-voice multimodal integration in the context of person perception, focusing on the integration of affective and identity information. Several research domains are brought together. Behavioral and neuroimaging work in normal adult humans included are presented alongside evidence from other domains to provide complementary perspectives: studies in human children for a developmental perspective, studies in non-human primates for an evolutionary perspective, and studies in human clinical populations for a clinical perspective.
