Borderline Personality Disorder in Adolescents: a Complete Guide to Understanding and Coping When Your Adolescent Has BPD. Blaise Aguirre, $18.95 “Borderline Personality Disorder in Adolescents offers parents, caregivers, and adolescents themselves a complete understanding of this complex and tough-to-treat disorder. Dr. Aguirre describes recent advancements in treatments and brings into focus what we do and don’t know about this condition. Readers will learn the differences between BPD and other adolescent psychiatric diagnoses; treatment options; how to choose the right therapist; how to determine when inpatient treatment is necessary; how to enforce boundaries; how to take care of and protect yourself; and practical techniques for effective communication with those who have BPD.”

Cognitive-Behavioral Therapies for Trauma, 2nd Edition. Edited by Victoria M. Follette & Josef I. Ruzek, $58.95 “Significantly revised and restructured to reflect major developments in the field, the expanded second edition of this important work is essentially a new book. The volume presents cutting-edge cognitive and behavioral applications for treating a variety of trauma-related symptoms, disorders, and special populations. Leading scientist-practitioners summarize the available treatment data and succinctly review the "whys," "whats" and "hows" of their respective approaches. Nearly all extant chapters have been completely rewritten, many with new authors, and new chapters have been added on advances in assessment, acute stress disorder, complicated grief, cognitive processing therapy, working with groups, and early intervention.”

Creating Courage: Search & Rescue. Jim Hall, $75.00 "Creating Courage: Search & Rescue is a therapeutic resource designed to help trauma specialists and others in the healing professions guide children, adolescents and adults through the devastating effects of anxiety and trauma. With over 70 different exercises, scales and therapeutic tools, Creating Courage: Search & Rescue challenges the conventional wisdom of symptom reduction and client stabilization, offering instead the resources to go deep into the inner world of the trauma survivor. Searching through the thought distortions and defense mechanisms, clients will be guided by the various exercises into rediscovering their truth and ultimately rescuing their own power and personal sense of wellness."

Healing from Post-Traumatic Stress: a Workbook for Recovery. Monique Lang, $22.95 Healing from Post-Traumatic Stress is an effective, life-affirming guide to help you get through your traumatic experience. Written by an experienced psychotherapist this informative guide with a user-friendly format invites you to participate in the process of your recovery, using simple anxiety-reducing exercises, revealing questions, yoga and meditation tools, art therapy, writing, and other therapeutic techniques.

Traumatic Experience and the Brain: a Handbook for Understanding and Treating Those Traumatized as Children. Dave Ziegler, $26.95 “Traumatic Experience and the Brain is the result of Dr. Dave Ziegler's three decades of experience with children traumatized by abuse and/or neglect. This book details the effect of such trauma on the developing brain, describing how it actually rewires one's perceptions of self, others, and the world. It is a book of hope for foster, natural, and adoptive parents of such "broken" children and the therapists, teachers and social workers who attempt to help them.”
