Produktbeschreibung

Henris Great Adventure was written for use by parents, therapists, teachers, special-education teachers, and all individuals who work or interact with gifted or twice exceptional children. The intent is for the book to be used as a tool to teach interventions to assist such children with emotional regulation. The issues Henri faces in the story (asynchronous development, sensitivity to sensory input, teasing/bulling, difficulties adapting to changes in schedules, and emotional outbursts) are common experiences for gifted children. The interventions discussed in this book are modified and adapted from research on mindfulness cognitive behavioral therapy, adapted dialectical behavioral therapy, relaxation techniques for anxiety, and other behavioral interventions. This book was written as part of a Doctoral project in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree doctor of Psychology. A full copy of the doctoral dissertation can be accessed through Alliant International University, Los Angeles Campus, 1000 Suite 5S Fremont Avenue, Alhambra, California 91803. www.alliant.edu.

Autorenporträt

Elisabeth Linn is currently in the final year of her PsyD (doctor of psychology) program. Her first career was in the performing arts, prior to returning to school in 2008 to accomplish her goal of becoming a psychologist. In 2012, Ms. Linn graduated with honors from California State University-Northridge with a BA in psychology and a minor in art and received her MA in clinical psychology in 2014 from Alliant International University, LA campus. Ms. Linn became interested in giftedness when working in the performing arts and then subsequently when working in art classes during her degree program. Many of the issues that gifted children face are often misunderstood for a variety of reasons, and through research, it became clear that one of the areas that is pertinent for gifted children is emotional regulation. The hope and intent of this project is to be a resource for those who are struggling to find ways to help gifted individuals manage the intense emotions they encounter but often have difficulties knowing how to regulate.
