Coping After COVID-19: Cognitive Behavioral Skills for Anxiety, Depression, and Adjusting to Chronic Illness
"COVID-19 has exacted a devastating global toll. Vaccines and antiviral treatments have had a significant effect in mitigating serious illness and death. Despite medical and pharmacological advances in prevention and treatment, new infections continue to occur as of the time of writing. Some individuals who contract COVID-19 experience persistent symptoms of the illness, even after the acute infection. These symptoms tend to be more common in individuals who were hospitalized, but persisting symptoms can also occur in those with a mild initial infection. Anxiety, depression, cognitive symptoms, and fatigue are common sequelae of COVID-19 (Vanderlind et al., 2021)"--
Coping After COVID-19: Cognitive Behavioral Skills for Anxiety, Depression, and Adjusting to Chronic Illness
"COVID-19 has exacted a devastating global toll. Some individuals who contract COVID-19 experience persistent symptoms of the illness, even after the acute infection. This can include breathing difficulties, fatigue, difficulties in thinking, dizziness, nausea, difficulty moving and walking, and other challenges. COVID-19 and these lingering symptoms can lead to feelings of anxiety, low mood, and helplessness, and they can drastically change your day-to-day life. Many people with persisting symptoms of COVID-19 have difficulty adjusting to the physical, mental, and emotional effects. Feeling anxious or depressed after COVID-19 can make it harder to engage in medical care and rehabilitation"--
Paramilitarism and the Assault on Democracy in Haiti
In this path-breaking book, Jeb Sprague investigates the dangerous world of right-wing paramilitarism in Haiti and its role in undermining the democratic aspirations of the Haitian people. Sprague focuses on the period beginning in 1990 with the rise of Haiti’s first democratically elected president, Jean-Bertrand Aristide, and the right-wing movements that succeeded in driving him from power. Over the ensuing two decades, paramilitary violence was largely directed against the poor and supporters of Aristide’s Lavalas movement, taking the lives of thousands of Haitians. Sprague seeks to understand how this occurred, and traces connections between paramilitaries and their elite financial ...
Clinton in Haiti
The book focuses on Aristide's political career, emphasizing his strategizing, compromising and dealing with the Clinton administration. In his presentation of the conflict, Girard carefully balances Aristide's and Clinton's needs, and the demands and moral positions the leaders make against each other - the result is that each leader and his constituency comes to life, and their maneuverings and decisions become engaging and meaningful. While Girard focuses on the conflict itself and the foreign policy dynamics at play between Haiti and the US, he also paints a compelling picture of contemporary Haiti and delineates with great clarity the tensions which led to recent violence and the deposition of Aristide.
Cancer Caregivers
Informal caregivers - family members, friends, and other loved ones - are an essential, uncompensated and significantly burdened extension of the healthcare team. Rapid advances in cancer care, including new drugs and immunotherapies and more sophisticated diagnostic tools, have markedly improved the ability to medically extend lives and enhance survival. As patients are living longer, with today's shorter hospital stays and shift towards increased outpatient care, however, the demands placed on all caregivers and their needs have substantially increased. Cancer Caregivers reveals the field of Psycho-Oncology's exploration of the depth of complexities of caregiving experiences and identifies...

The Big Book of ACT Metaphors
Metaphors and exercises play an incredibly important part in the successful delivery of acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). These powerful tools go far in helping clients connect with their values and give them the motivation needed to make a real, conscious commitment to change.

In this breakthrough book, two ACT researchers provide an essential A-Z resource guide that includes tons of new metaphors and experiential exercises to help promote client acceptance, defusion from troubling thoughts, and values-based action.
