No Fighting, No Biting, No Screaming
Fighting, biting, screaming and other behaviours that challenge the people dealing with them are often triggered by unsuitable surroundings or unrealistic demands. In this fresh and effective approach, Bo Hejlskov Elvén shows how identifying and adapting these problem areas can dramatically improve behaviour in people with autism and other developmental disabilities. This practical book explains how to reassess difficult situations and offers easy and effective strategies for eliciting positive responses without resorting to restraint and punishment. Based on the successful low-arousal approach, it is a proven method of stepping away from distress and towards calm, improving the quality of life of everyone involved. Helpful examples covering a wide range of developmental disabilities from autism to Down's Syndrome illustrate the positive changes that can be achieved. This empowering book will be invaluable to anyone attempting to deal with unproductive behaviour in individuals with developmental disabilities, whether at home or in a professional environment.
Strategies for Work with Involuntary Clients
Often in their careers, social workers will encounter clients who are either legally required to attend treatment services or are otherwise coerced or pressured into those services. Practitioners in settings from prisons to emergency rooms to nursing homes to child protection agencies will find themselves with involuntary clients. In an update to this classic text, social workers Ronald H. Rooney and Rebecca G. Mirick explore the best ways to work with unwilling clients. While work with involuntary clients is common, it can be challenging, frustrating, and unproductive unless practitioners are well trained for it. This book provides a theoretical framework for understanding the legal, ethical, and practical concerns when working with involuntary clients, offering theory, treatment models, and specific practice strategies influenced by the best available knowledge. Animated by case studies across diverse settings, these resources can be used by practitioners to facilitate collaborative, effective working relationships with involuntary clients.
Motivational Work
In part four of Motivational Work the theory is deepened. It allows the author to describe the functions of the contact rebus in greater detail. The theory can be likened to a very large-scale map: it depicts the same reality as a map with a smaller representative fraction, but shows features that would otherwise be too small to see. This wealth of detail can help the motivational worker develop an even greater understanding of the mechanics of the counsellor-client encounter and give him invaluable guidance in his work.
Strategies for Work With Involuntary Clients
Involuntary clients are required to see a professional, such as juveniles on probation, or are pressured to seek help, such as alcoholics threatened with the desertion of a spouse. For close to two decades, Strategies for Work with Involuntary Clients has led in its honest analysis of the involuntary transaction, suggesting the kind of effective legal and ethical intervention that can lead to more cooperative encounters, successful contracts, and less burnout on both sides of the treatment relationship. For this second edition, Ronald H. Rooney has invited experts to address recent theories and provide new information on the best practices for specific populations and settings. He also adds practical examples and questions to each chapter to better facilitate the involvement of students and readers, plus a section on motivational interviewing.

Sagsbehandler på rette kurs
Når sagsbehandleren arbejder empowerment-orienteret med sig selv, kan han eller hun benytte sin egen styrke og indsigt til at træffe fagligt og menneskeligt kvalificerede beslutninger, også når de daglige dilemmaer er vanskelige at navigere i. Sagsbehandler på rette kurs viser, hvordan sagsbehandleren kan opbygge sin egen empowerment. Bogen præsenterer metoder og teknikker, som er lette at anvende i hverdagen, og alle kapitler indeholder øvelser, der lægger op til refleksion over egen praksis. Katja Balslev Nielsen, der har mange års erfaring som myndighedssagsbehandler, har skrevet med udgangspunkt i sagsbehandlerens vilkår, men den kan benyttes af alle inden for professionsområdet.
