Guided Self-Help
The use of guided self-help for people with intellectual disabilities to treat depression and/or anxiety is in its infancy. The SAINT (Self-Assessment and INTervention) is the first resource to be made commonly available which has been developed specifically for people with intellectual disabilities. Using colour photographs and easy read text, the SAINT offers a structured and accessible way to deliver guided self-help with this population. By using a daily diary, clients can learn to recognise their emotions and develop ways to cope with them. This facilitator manual explores the role of guided self help, its evidence base and its role in treating anxiety and depression. It details the development of the SAINT and the rationale for its use, and offers experiences from individuals who have used it in their own lives. The manual will help a facilitator to prepare for sessions with a client who is using the SAINT.

Learning Disability Today
This fully revised and updated edition of Learning Disability Today provides an accessible and thought-provoking introduction to some of the key issues in the lives of people with learning disabilities and the practice of those who support them. Learning Disability Today was first published in 2007 to meet the need for a handbook which, while well-grounded in latest research and practice, was accessible for staff occupying many roles, such as support workers and managers in learning disability service settings, community learning disability teams and professionals who may find themselves supporting a person with an intellectual disability from time to time, families and voluntary supporters,...
Child to Parent Violence and Abuse
Child to Parent Violence and Abuse (CPVA), where a child or young person uses verbal, physical, psychological or financial means to gain power or control over a parent or carer, is a much misunderstood problem that affects the lives of millions of families around the world. Despite this, and the lasting damage it can cause, CPVA is an underreported issue, and one that presents a serious challenge to practitioners and support services -- not least because it inverts our normal understanding of abuse within the family. In this book Helen Bonnick shares the knowledge that she has built up over many years specialising in CPVA as a social worker, practice educator and researcher. Following an int...
A Mismatch of Salience
A Mismatch of Salience brings together a range of Damian Milton's writings that span more than a decade. The book explores the communication and understanding difficulties that can create barriers between people on the autism spectrum and neurotypical people. It celebrates diversity in communication styles and human experience by re framing the view that autistic people represent a 'disordered other' not as an impairment, but a two-way mismatch of salience. It also looks at how our current knowledge has been created by non-autistic people on the 'outside', looking in. A Mismatch of Salience attempts to redress this balance.
Ten Rules for Ensuring People with Learning Disabilities and Those Who Are on the Autism Spectrum Develop 'challenging Behaviour'
Ten Rules for Ensuring People with Learning Disabilities and Those Who Are On The Autism Spectrum Develop 'Challenging Behaviour'... and maybe what to do about it is a full colour, pocket-sized booklet that aims to spark thought and discussion on how we can better understand those on the autism spectrum and/or with learning difficulties and their needs. Written in the 'voice' of someone with autism, this booklet directly addresses the many practices and assumptions that cause so many problems for children and adults with autism and learning difficulties and their family, friends and carers. The 'ten rules' concept sets out to be deliberately provocative and is the first in a series that will address the topic of autism and how not to do things.
An Introduction to Evidence-based Teaching in the English Language Classroom
What evidence is there for common teaching practices and procedures? And how can teachers explore whether their teaching practices are support by evidence? An Introduction to Evidence-Based Teaching in the English Language Classroom begins by identifying what ' evidence-based teaching' is. It then outlines the key strategies, briefly describing how and why they are supported by evidence. Finally, it moves on to show the practical application of these strategies in ELT with concrete examples and activities. It presents the research in a way which teachers will find accessible, and offers research tasks to try in part 1 plus classroom-based research tasks to try in part 2, so that you can consolidate your reading and relate the evidence discussed to your own classroom practice. It is designed to be a supplement to any initial or in-service teacher education course, plus as a useful resource for teachers at any level who are interested in evidence-based teaching in English Language classes. You should read alongside core teacher training texts, in order to be able to examine common teaching practices.
