Summary

Highly sensitive, spirited, empathic, shy, strong-willed … these are common descriptions of children who simply feel the world on a deeper level.
As a parent it can be difficult to know how to respond to these deep emotions. You may feel that traditional parenting approaches don't work but you're worried that your child won't learn how to survive in the 'real world'.
Now leading psychologist Dr Aoife Durcan offers expert advice on how to:

- Support your child in navigating big emotions, including meltdowns, with compassion and understanding.
- Feel confident managing challenges like separation anxiety, school pressures and social interactions.
- Help your child be less hard on themselves when things don't go well.These practical, research-backed tools will empower you to feel comfortable about your parenting style and, most importantly, help your child to thrive in a world that can sometimes feel like too much.

    Too often, therapists and other helping professionals feel paralyzed by the fear that they don't know enough about other cultural groups to counsel clients different than themselves. Lambers Fisher sets out to mitigate these fears by providing a framework for professionals to better understand the experiences of cultural groups with whom they are not familiar. 
     
     
     
    With his encouraging and non-shaming approach, Lambers will challenge you to learn more about other cultures, accept what you do not yet know in the process, and utilize strategies that can help you become an increasingly culturally competent professional. Beyond ethnicity, you will explore issues of age, gender, sexuality, religion, acculturation, and social justice, as well as identify opportunities to strengthen your own cultural self-awareness. 
     
     
     
    Applicable for a wide range of professionals—including counselors, religious leaders, occupational therapists, educators, coaches, physical therapists, and nurses—the practical and impactful strategies in this book will allow you to: journal about your cultural competency journey; reduce cultural offenses and repair damaged relationships; avoid ethical dilemmas; build rapport with diverse clients; understand various experiences of diverse people through case examples; and help clients of any culture make meaningful life changes.

    “What is comfort but a filament between past and present with some sort of future implied? In other words, safety. In other words, care. I know it is possible to find these things without her—I know they are there. But it can be so hard to ask. So much is unknown.”  Rebecca Spiegel is working as a teacher in New Orleans when she learns of her sister’s suicide. Only after the funeral does shock give way to grief—and to many questions. How could Emily do this to herself? How could she have abandoned all those who loved her? And what could have been done differently to prevent this devastating loss?  In the days and weeks that follow, Spiegel embarks on a search for answers. She unpacks family history, documents the last traces of her sister’s life, and questions what more she could have done to prevent her death. What she finds instead is that there is no narrative on the other side of grief like this. There is no answer, no easy resolution—only those that leave and those that keep living. Unflinchingly honest, visceral, and raw, this courageous elegy lays bare the hard realities of surviving the loss of a loved one.
