Produktbeschreibung

It started with smoke.

It only took a moment for the Driscoll family's quiet life to catch fire. Disappearances into churches, murmurs of mental illness, and secrets long buried threaten to destroy their once-happy home. Feathers from the Fire is the soul-stirring tale of one family's daring attempt to transcend the trappings of fear, stigma, and generational pain by following the signs, leaning on allies, digging for the truth, and holding onto the hope that there is more than meets the eye.

Dr. Karlyn Pleasants has alchemized the wisdom of her twenty-five years of developing therapeutic community programs for individuals with complex mental illnesses and her love of legend and synchronicity into an unforgettable journey that demonstrates the power of curiosity, truth-telling, and love.

What is possible when we look for the stories behind the story?

Autorenporträt

As a clinical psychologist, international speaker and trainer, and leading clinical advisor, Dr. Karlyn Pleasants is whole-heartedly committed to shifting paradigms and rewriting cultural narratives about mental health, healing, and the infinite possibilities available when we believe there is always more to the story. Dr. Karlyn Pleasants is considered one the nation's authorities on working with complex mental illnesses at the individual, sibling, and whole-family levels, speaking on topics related to mental illness in families, the arc and structure of lasting change, and the importance of healing at greater systemic levels. With a clinical lens grounded in attachment theory, she prefers to walk in the world of intergenerational transmission of stories-the tales, experiences, beliefs, and traditions passed along through systems. Leaning on narrative techniques to help others put voice to that which needs to be spoken and heard, she supports the revising of family roles and personal scripts to create a new life-storyline. She holds certifications in clinical trauma treatment as well as in Jungian psychotherapy where active imagination, individuation, and harmonious integration reign supreme. Today, Dr. Pleasants serves as the Chief Clinical Advisor at the Anew Treatment Center in Scottsdale, Arizona, with the aim of carrying on the fidelity of this deeply transformative model of individual and systemic change that promotes personal agency and interpersonal healing through belonging to a community that believes in individuals' ability to thrive and live a purposeful life.
