Many clinicians, however, find working with such clients difficult. This is partly because of misconceptions about AD/HD that many professional helpers have. However, the major challenge often is simply the client's participation in therapy itself because, as in their other contexts, they struggle greatly to fully focus on the task at hand. In this article, we offer some helpful mnemonic strategies for use with AD/HD clients both in session activities and as homework assignments designed to generalize in session progress.","PeriodicalId":184669,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Clinical Activities, Assignments & Handouts in Psychotherapy Practice","volume":"174 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-12-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116367622","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This photograph activity can be used in individual or group psychotherapy to promote increased compassion for their struggles as young girls to cope, and to facilitate increased understanding and self-acceptance. The client brings to therapy a photograph of herself taken at an age when the sexual abuse occurred. The therapist helps the client relax and attain a sense of safety before leading the client through and observation and interaction with the girl in the photograph. Suggestions are included for the guided observation and subsequent discussion.","PeriodicalId":184669,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Clinical Activities, Assignments & Handouts in Psychotherapy Practice","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131133281","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Kruczek, Christine Smith","doi":"10.1300/J182V01N03_03","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1300/J182V01N03_03","url":null,"abstract":"Abstract Turkus and Courtois (1996) have recommended a stage oriented approach to treatment of abuse survivors. The first stage of treatment emphasizes development of adaptive skills which the survivor can use to cope with her abuse experience. Their perpetrator's abusive actions devalue and dehumanize the abuse survivor. Focusing on survivors' capacity for adaptive self-care is particularly important the initial stage of treatment as survivors have often internalized this devalued sense of self. These perceptual remnants of abuse are frequently manifest as a diminished capacity for adaptive self-care. This article summarizes four activities designed to facilitate positive mechanisms for self-care. The over-riding goals of the interventions are to: (1) focus on the survivors' strengths, (2) empower survivors to be agents of change (3) normalize survivors post traumatic stress experiences, and (4) develop positive associational cues to counteract existing negative cues. The first activity uses the concept of “medicine bags” from Native American culture to foster development of positive associa-tional cues. The second activity utilizes a safety contract and review of post traumatic stress symptoms to set the stage for treatment. The third activity uses Maslow's hierarchy to help survivors identify and meet their personal needs. The final activity fosters positive self-image through a letter writing activity. These activities are designed to help reorient survivors to their own health and help them develop a present and future orientation which emphasizes adaptive self-care techniques.","PeriodicalId":184669,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Clinical Activities, Assignments & Handouts in Psychotherapy Practice","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114029007","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
