The Body-Based Obsessions Workbook

Jon Hershfield; Molly B. Schiffer

NEW HARBINGER PUBLICATIONS
2025
pokkari
Evidence-based cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and self-compassion skills to help you break free from obsessions about your body and mind. If you have anxiety or obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), you may also struggle with body-based obsessions--constant fears and worries about your physical and mental health. You may worry that your heart will stop beating, or that you'll stop breathing. You might obsess over your physical appearance, feel like there's something physically wrong with your brain, or fear that you are "going crazy." Over time, these obsessions can become debilitating, and dramatically impair your quality of life. So, how can you break free from anxiety and obsessions about your body and brain? Drawing on a combination of evidence-based CBT, exposure and response prevention therapy (ERP), mindfulness, and compassion-focused therapy, The Body-Based Obsessions Workbook offers powerful skills to help you manage intrusive thoughts and obsessions, and take back your life. You'll learn the difference between body-based obsessions and other disorders such as body dysmorphic disorder or health anxiety, and find practical tools to manage your worst symptoms--such as rumination, constant checking or monitoring of your breathing or heart rate, or fears about your mental health. If you struggle with intense, intrusive thoughts about your body and brain, you're not alone--and there is help. This workbook will teach you proven-effective skills to overcome your obsessions, so you can experience lasting peace and comfort in your own body.

2011
nidottu
Impulse control disorders (ICDs) include pathological gambling, kleptomania, trichotillomania, intermittent explosive disorder, and pyromania, and are characterized by difficulties resisting urges to engage in behaviors that are excessive or ultimately harmful to oneself or others. ICDs are relatively common among adolescents and adults, carry significant morbidity and mortality, and can be effectively treated with behavioral and pharmacological therapies. This guide includes all the information and materials necessary to implement a successful cognitive behavioral therapy program for impulse control disorders (CBT-ICD). This evidence-based intervention was developed for the treatment of pathological gambling, kleptomania, compulsive buying, and pyromania. Originators of interventions for impulse control disorders, the authors review the background and diagnostic information for each ICD as well as available treatment outcome studies; the assessment process for each ICD problem and the individual therapy sessions are also reviewed. This format affords you the flexibility to treat one or more ICD problem, and since they co-occur, this approach is essential. This therapist guide and its corresponding workbook form a complete treatment package. It is a resource that no clinician specializing in these disorders can do without.

It will also help you to better understand the true nature of impulse control problems, and will help to prevent future problems. Intended for use in conjunction with supervised therapy, this workbook includes various self-assessmnets and exercises designed to help you realize the truth behind your actions, and to reach the ultimate goal of changing your impulsive behaviors.

Risk Management

Risk Management

Glen B. Alleman; Jon M. Quigley

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD
2024
sidottu
Project success is an elusive goal in every business or technical domain. Project failure usually results from unhandled risks to the technical, cost, and schedule aspects of the project. There are four primary root causes of project failure.Unrealistic performance expectation, with missing Measures of EffectivenessUnrealistic cost and schedule estimates based on inadequate risk adjusted growth modelsInadequate assessment of risk and unmitigated exposure to these risks without proper handling strategiesUnanticipated technical issues with alternative plans and solutions to maintain the effectiveness of the project processes and its deliverablesRisk Management provides a comprehensive overview of the people, principles, processes, and practices as the fundamental base upon which an effective risk management system resides. However, this does not guarantee effective risk management and successful projects and businesses. The first half of the book describes risk management processes, as well as a delineation between risk and hazards and how these are connected. The second half of the book provides industry examples of the approach to risk management in specific context and with specific approaches and artifacts where applicable.The book focuses on risks created by uncertainty, their identification, and the corrective and preventive actions needed to address these risks to increase the probability of project success. The book’s goal is to provide a context-driven framework, developing a foundation for a rational approach to risk management that makes adaptation to circumstances as easy as possible.

Universitetsforlaget
2016
nidottu
Denne boken bygger på internasjonal forskning, men tar utgangspunkt i norske forhold. Den tar for seg de spesielle utfordringene markedsførere står ovenfor når det er andre organisasjoner som er kjøpere av produkter og tjenester. Sammenlignet med tradisjonell markedsføring stiller B2B-markedsføring blant annet spesielle krav til markedsstrategi og hvordan man håndterer de organisatoriske prosessene som foregår hos og mellom kunden og leverandøren. Denne 4. utgaven er fullstendig revidert og oppdatert. I tillegg inneholder den to nye kapitler som handler om verdiskaping, verdikapring og problemløsing i B2B-relasjoner. Boken er skrevet for studenter som tar kurs som innenfor salg, markedsføring og relasjoner mellom bedrifter. Den er også meget godt egnet for ledere, markedsførere og selgere som har bedrifter og offentlig virksomheter som sine kunder eller leverandører. Boken er bygget opp slik at den både er egnet som introduksjonsbok, samtidig som den går i dybden i de mest sentrale temaene og dermed også er velegnet for viderekommende. Denne boken har også ressurser for forelesere. Ta kontakt med kundeservice på e-post dersom du ønsker tilgang til disse.

Physician Communication with Patients

Physician Communication with Patients

Jon Christianson; Louise H. Warrick; Michael Finch; Wayne B. Jonas

The University of Michigan Press
2012
sidottu
We all have a good idea of how we want things to go when we visit a physician. We expect to be able to explain why we are there, and we hope the physician will listen and possibly ask questions that help us clarify our thoughts. Most of us hope that the physician will provide some expression of empathy, offer a clear, nontechnical assessment of our problem, and describe "next steps" in a way that is easy to understand. Ideally, we would like to be asked about our ability to follow treatment recommendations. Some experts say that these expectations are not only reasonable but even necessary if patients are to get the care they need. Yet there is a growing body of research that suggests the reality of physician communication with patients often falls short of this ideal in many respects. A careful analysis of the findings of this research can provide guidance to physician educators, health care administrators, and health policy makers interested in understanding the role that improved physician communication can play in improving quality of care and patient outcomes. Physician Communication with Patients summarizes findings from the academic literature pertaining to various aspects of this question, discussing those findings in the context of current pressures for change in the organization and delivery of medical services.

A Research Agenda for Governance

A Research Agenda for Governance

B. Guy Peters; Jon Pierre; Eva Sørensen; Jacob Torfing

EDWARD ELGAR PUBLISHING LTD
2023
nidottu
Elgar Research Agendas outline the future of research in a given area. Leading scholars are given the space to explore their subject in provocative ways, and map out the potential directions of travel. They are relevant but also visionary.This incisive Research Agenda for Governance draws together unique contributions from leading scholars to examine the two distinct models of governance: the traditional model, based on the state and exercise of control through law and bureaucracy, and an alternative model centred on the collaboration of public and private sector actors.Introducing the essential principles and rationale of these alternative models of governance, both of which can be seen operating at all levels of government in democratic as well as non-democratic regimes, the chapters evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of the two systems. Drawing conclusions from critical areas of inquiry, including multi-level governance, the nature of governance in democratic and authoritarian regimes, and digital innovations in governance, the book offers a richly detailed insight into the respective workings of the models of governing by control and by collaboration.This Research Agenda will be an invaluable resource for academics and graduate students of public policy, regulation and governance, and public administration management. Its measured consideration of the possibilities for enhancing public innovation via alternative models of governance will also be of significant interest to employees within the public sector.

Comparative Governance

Comparative Governance

B. Guy Peters; Jon Pierre

Cambridge University Press
2016
sidottu
Decision-making is at the heart of governing and governance, and is a more challenging task compared to just a few decades ago as a result of increasing social complexity and globalization. In this book, B. Guy Peters and Jon Pierre propose a new framework for the comparative analysis of governance, arguing that government remains a central actor in governance. By articulating the functionalist dimension of governance they show how goal setting, resource mobilization, decision-making, implementation and feedback can be performed by a combination of different types of actors. Even so, effective governance requires a leading role for government. The framework is also applied to a taxonomy of governance arrangements and national styles of governing. Comparative Governance advances our knowledge about governance failure and how forms of governance may change. It also significantly strengthens the theory of governance, showing how governance can be studied conceptually as well as empirically.
