Your Neurodiverse Child
Provides invaluable information and practical strategies to empower neurodiverse children to thrive. Globally, the prevalence of children with challenges has increased dramatically. Unfortunately, these children are often labeled as “bad,” “stupid,” or “lazy.” They are frequently left feeling totally helpless and despondent about their problems, blaming themselves for their poor performance. It’s essential for parents, caregivers, and teachers to understand how to support these kids to ensure their success. In Your Neurodiverse Child: How to Help Kids with Learning, Attention, and Neurocognitive Challenges Thrive, Dr. Nechama Sorscher educates the reader on how to identify and ...
Your Neurodiverse Child
This book enables readers to understand, manage, and improve the way their child copes with Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD), Learning Disorders (LD), and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and cultivates positive beliefs around learning differences in order to help neurodiverse children thrive.
Assessment and Intervention with Children, Adolescents, and Adults with Neurocognitive Challenges
Neurodivergent children, adolescents, and adults demonstrate both learning and attention challenges that contribute to academic, social, and workplace failures. The emotional consequences of these disorders can often include lowered self-esteem, pervasive feelings of shame, profound insecurity about academic skills, and a deep sense of vulnerability. This leads many individuals with neurocognitive difficulties to consult with psychotherapists for help in alleviating their psychiatric symptoms. Nechama Sorscher argues that it is therefore essential for clinicians to be mindful of the various types of learning disorders and their impact on the developing psyche while facilitating insight and a...
Holocaust Trauma
Holocaust Trauma offers a comprehensive overview of the long-term psychological effects of Holocaust trauma. It covers not only the direct effects on the actual survivors and the transmission effects upon the offspring, but also the collective effects upon other affected populations, including the Israeli Jewish and the societies in Germany and Austria. It also suggests various possible intervention approaches to deal with such long-term effects of major trauma upon individuals, groups and societies that can be generalized to other similar traumatic events. The material presented is based on the clinical experience gathered from hundreds of clients of the National Israeli Center for Psychoso...
Making Modern Lives
Making Modern Lives looks at how young people shape their lives as they move through their secondary school years and into the world beyond. It explores how they develop dispositions, attitudes, identities, and orientations in modern society. Based on an eight-year study consisting of more than 350 in-depth interviews with young Australians from diverse backgrounds, the book reveals the effects of schooling and of local school cultures on young people's choices, future plans, political values, friendships, and attitudes toward school, work, and sense of self. Making Modern Lives uncovers who young people are today, what type of identities and inequalities are being formed and reformed, and what processes and politics are at work in relation to gender, class, race, and the framing of vocational futures.
Creating a New Kind of University
Creating a New Kind of University builds on the authors' previous book, A Time for Boldness, in its vision for creating “engaged universities”—institutions of higher education that partner with communities to solve universal problems. In order to identify critical elements of engagement and barriers to its progress, the authors begin by examining efforts made by the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee toward propelling institution-wide commitments to engagement in the community. The authors then survey the state of engagement nationally and provide an overview of the scholarship on engagement. The book presents innovative approaches to fostering successful community-university engagement...
Lost in Transmission
This book is about how traumatic psychological injury is passed down to the children and grandchildren of those who originally experienced it and about finding the shared humanity in families, in psychotherapy, in society, and in memories of the past that repairs the damage people do to one another.
Interpersonal Psychotherapy of Depression
Reflecting the new and exciting trends in psychotherapy as well as responsive to the current emphasis on efficient, substantial therapeutic results, this book presents a model of interpersonal, short_term psychotherapy for clinically depressed patients. Gerald L. Klerman, whose research on depression has made him world renowned, and Myrna M. Weissman, who has written, with Eugene Paykel, an important book on women and depression, have worked with their colleagues to present the empirical basis for their new treatment method. This theory builds on the heritage of Harry Stack Sullivan and John Bowlby and their focus on interpersonal issues and attachment on depression. Research shows that four...
LIVING A LIFE THAT MATTERS

In this true story, the reader will see how an ordinary human being—an innocent child—not only survived the Nazi Nightmare, but achieved the American Dream.
