Produktbeschreibung

Praise for Treatment and Management of Maladaptive Schemas:

"This groundbreaking book helps mental health practitioners (as well as anyone else who reads it) identify and change their clients' maladaptive schema into those that are positive, life-affirming, and adaptive. It also presents an original paradigm of consciousness that encompasses all areas of human growth and development, healthy and unhealthy, wise and downright stupid."

Stanley Krippner, Ph.D. Professor of Psychology, Saybrook University

"This book provides...a context and vocabulary to understand and ultimately suggest ways to alleviate the negative consequences of traumatic events on our lives." Brendan D. Leonard, M.B.A. Fellow Former Trustee with Eric Kreuter, Saybrook University

Treatment and Management of Maladaptive Schemas offers innovative means of altering self-destructive beliefs and their resulting behaviors. Likening change in individuals' entrenched ways of organizing the world to paradigm shifts in science, this path-breaking volume models cognitive therapy and counseling that is both schema-focused and strengths-based. This framework spans toxic schemas in relationships, positive and negative uses of spirituality, bedrock client skills including realistic goal-setting and overcoming impasses and fears, and key therapist skills such as assessing problems, bonding effectively with clients, and evaluating progress. And for maximum utility, chapter synopses identify key concepts, case summaries translate technique into practice, and appendices provide helpful tools and creative insights. Included in the coverage:

• Paradigms and maladaptive schemas.
• Schema-focused cognitive therapy.
• How do we define success?
• The source of paradigmatic thinking.
• Catalyzing the hidden inner strength towardexploration.
• Clients who shifted paradigms: case examples.

Offering fresh possibilities for client hope and confidence, Treatment and Management of Maladaptive Schemas opens up new therapeutic avenues for clinicians and professional coaches, as well as students of behavioral psychology and human resource professionals.

Rezensionen

"What I call "dysfunctional personal myths," Dr. Eric A. Kreuter and Kenneth M. Moltner, Esq. refer to as "maladaptive schema." These are the beliefs, memories, and emotions that guide people's attitudes and behaviors, and often get them into no end of trouble. This groundbreaking book helps mental health practitioners (as well as anyone else who reads it) identify and change their clients' maladaptive schema into those that are positive, life-affirming, and adaptive. It also presents an original paradigm of consciousness that encompasses all areas of human growth and development, healthy and unhealthy, wise and downright stupid."

"Sadly, the reality of life is that most of us are exposed to trauma of one form or another in our lives. This book provides access to a fascinating way to think about how such events affect us, and, more importantly, a context and vocabulary to understand and ultimately suggest ways to alleviate the negative consequences of traumatic events on our lives. As Kreuter and Moltner say, "Unwinding the person's issues can be a complex undertaking." Their book provides intriguing insights and tools to help us on this journey. The underlining themes of hope and positive attitude support a framework for shifting one's paradigm and provide the opportunity for real change.

And don't skip the afterward and appendices! They offer intimate insight into the endearing heart and ever-curious mind of author Eric Kreuter and the wonderful family that surrounds him!"
