Counselling Older People with Alcohol Problems

This book explores the influences, patterns and triggers that affect the development and progression of alcohol dependency in this age group, and provides a detailed description of a theoretical model and therapeutic process that has proved successful in practice. Informative case studies demonstrate the approach in action and guidance is also given for working with clients with dementia or mental health problems. This book will prove an invaluable resource for counsellors and other healthcare professionals who encounter alcohol problems in their clinical practice, including clinical psychologists, social workers, occupational therapists and community psychiatric nurses.

It's Always Been Ours: Rewriting the Story of Black Women's Bodies
by Jessica WilsonWE WILL REWRITE THE NARARTIVE OF BLACKNESS THAT CENTERS AND CELEBRATES OUR JOY. In It&’s Always Been Ours eating disorder specialist and storyteller Jessica Wilson challenges us to rethink what having a "good" body means in contemporary society. By centering the bodies of Black women in her cultural discussions of body image, food, health, and wellness, Wilson argues that we can interrogate white supremacy&’s hold on us and reimagine the ways we think about, discuss, and tend to our bodies. A narrative that spans the year of racial reckoning (that wasn't), It&’s Always Been Ours is an incisive blend of historical documents, contemporary writing, and narratives of clients, friends, and celebrities that examines the politics of body liberation. Wilson argues that our culture&’s fixation on thin, white women reinscribes racist ideas about Black women's bodies and ways of being in the world as "too much." For Wilson, this white supremacist, capitalist undergirding in wellness movements perpetuates a culture of respectability and restriction that force Black women to perform unhealthy forms of resilience and strength at the expense of their physical and psychological needs. With just the right mix of wit, levity, and wisdom, Wilson shows us how a radical reimagining of body narratives is a prerequisite to well-being. It&’s Always Been Ours is a love letter that celebrates Black women&’s bodies and shows us a radical and essential path forward to rediscovering their vulnerability and joy.

Lenguaje Corporal: Aprenda El Arte De La Comunicación No Verbal
by Victoria WilsonEl lenguaje corporal no siempre es tan obvio y claro como parece, así lo revela la portada de este libro: la mayor parte de nuestro lenguaje corporal es sutil y se expresa con expresiones apenas perceptibles. Si aprendemos a descifrar las señales no verbales que otras personas nos envían, entenderemos mejor los mensajes y las situaciones en que nos encontramos, lo que nos permitirá reaccionar y abordar estas situaciones y personas de la manera más apropiada. Si más personas son capaces de percibir y comprender mejor cómo se sienten los demás con respecto a ellos y el significado real de lo que intentan transmitir, mejor podrán ajustar su comportamiento y sus reacciones, por lo que aumentarán sus posibilidades de incrementar las conexiones sociales con su entorno.
