This presentation discusses the impact of domestic violence on children from different ages and stages of development. Witnessing or experiencing domestic violence can negatively impact children's physical, emotional and mental health. Effects may include physical injury, psychological trauma, sleep and eating issues, poor school performance, low self-esteem, and learning that violence is a normal way to resolve conflicts. Cultural factors may also influence domestic violence situations and how children are affected. The presenter aims to help resolve children's distress from witnessing violence by teaching conflict resolution skills and showing that violence is unacceptable.

The document discusses how loss and interpersonal conflict can become dysfunctional in families. It covers developmental tasks like adapting to change and satisfying needs. Families accomplish these through roles, rules, boundaries and hierarchies. Triangles form to reduce anxiety, but can become rigid over time, with family members taking on problematic roles. Unresolved emotional pain from trauma can lead to symptoms like addiction if not treated. Bowen and Minuchin's theories on triangulation, projection, and detouring are referenced to explain how problems are transmitted between family members.
This document provides tips for anger management skills. It begins by outlining objectives of identifying anger triggers, cues, and style as well as dealing with anger effectively. It describes that everyone experiences anger but how you express it is important. Later sections discuss why we get angry, how to understand triggers, and that thoughts influence our reactions. Positive ways to deal with anger include relaxation techniques, addressing underlying problems, and using counseling resources. The document concludes with 8 anger management tips such as taking deep breaths, counting to 10, visualizing relaxing experiences, and recognizing you are in charge of your own feelings.
Addiction develops from behaviors driven by pain, shame, and secrets that provide temporary relief but do not cure the underlying issues. The addictive behaviors are like a tree with roots representing the causes of addiction such as abuse, trauma, genetics, loneliness, fear, shame, guilt and anger. As long as the root causes are not addressed, the addictive symptoms will return and potentially worsen over time. Recovery requires addressing the underlying causes that contribute to feeling stuck and fuel addictive patterns.
Unresolved childhood attachment issues can lead to difficulties forming secure relationships as an adult. Patterns of attachment continue across generations, so adults with insecure attachments may struggle in relationships and in parenting. While attachment disorders in children are often treated successfully, adult attachment disorders are more complex and can be more difficult to treat. More recognition and treatment options are needed to help suffering adults form healthy attachments.

The document discusses grief and the grief process. It defines grief and related terms like bereavement and mourning. It describes the basic tasks of grief as emancipation from the deceased, readjustment to their absence, and forming new relationships. Stages of grief are discussed from various theorists like Lindemann, Bowlby, and Kubler-Ross. Psychological, social, and physical manifestations of grief are outlined. Abnormal or prolonged grief is defined, as is anticipatory grief for terminally ill patients. Recovery involves intellectually and emotionally accepting the loss and assuming a new identity without the deceased.

Stepps Case Conceptualization (10_12_15)Sara Eliason
This document provides a case conceptualization for Joseph Stein, a 65-year-old widowed man referred to counseling by his daughter. It summarizes Joseph's reasons for referral, history of presenting issues, assessment results, and diagnosis. Joseph has been experiencing depressed mood, anhedonia, lack of motivation, and feelings of guilt since the death of his wife three years ago and loss of his business. Based on his symptoms, he meets criteria for a provisional diagnosis of Major Depressive Disorder or Persistent Depressive Disorder. The conceptualization explores predisposing factors such as Joseph's religious and family values that may be maintaining his depressive symptoms.
Teen dating violence is defined as physical, sexual, psychological or emotional violence within a dating relationship between a current or former partner. More than 20% of adolescents experience violence from an intimate partner. Young women between 16-24 experience the highest rates. Unhealthy relationships can have severe short and long term negative consequences on a developing teen, including depression, anxiety, unhealthy behaviors like substance abuse, antisocial behaviors, and thoughts of suicide. Education about healthy relationships and support resources can help prevent dating violence.
The document discusses the relationship between mental illness and violence. It finds that the majority of mentally ill individuals are not violent and that substance abuse is a major determinant of violence. It describes the neurobiology of aggression and the cycle of assault. Understanding these principles can help with managing aggression.
effects of domestic violence on childrenEmine Özkurt
Domestic violence can psychologically harm children in several ways. Children who witness domestic violence may experience increased anxiety, confusion, and feelings of fear or guilt. They may also exhibit regressive behaviors, clinginess, aggression, or have trouble sleeping. In the long term, children exposed to domestic violence are more likely to have problems with depression, trauma, and an increased tolerance for violence. It is important that these children receive help and understand the violence is not their fault.
We've all heard about dysfunctional families but it is hard to recognise one from the inside. This presentation looks at ten patterns you often see in a dysfuctional family. We look at some of the reasons families can become dysfunctional and some of the ways that kids learn to cope.
If you grew up in a dysfuctional family it doesn't mean that you have to repeat the same behaviours as you endured. It might take a bit of work but you can learn to be empathetic, supportive and loving towards your family members.
This document discusses shame, its origins, and how it relates to addiction. It defines shame as an intensely painful feeling of being flawed and unworthy of love. Shame is normally developed in early childhood through interactions with caregivers. For addicts, shame can drive substance abuse as a means to escape feelings of shame, though this creates an addictive spiral. Overcoming shame requires developing self-compassion and replacing shame with self-affirmation. Therapies aim to help people directly experience and soothe shame through social connection and self-care.
This document discusses what grief is and the grieving process. It defines grief as the emotional response to loss, noting that the intensity of grief corresponds with the significance of the loss. It then lists common losses that can cause grief, such as death, divorce, job loss, illness, and more. The document explains that the grieving process is unique to each individual and can't be rushed, and discusses the common "five stages of grief" model of denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. However, it notes that not all people go through these stages in order or at all. The document provides tips for coping with grief, such as getting social support, taking care of yourself, and facing your feelings. It

Nearly half of the world's population is affected by mental illness which impacts self-esteem, relationships and ability to function. Good mental health allows one to realize their abilities and cope with stress, while poor mental health prevents a normal life. Mental health involves well-being and functioning well, while mental illness affects thinking, feelings and behavior. Risk factors for mental disorders include genetics, age, toxins, infections, and family/social problems. Both physical and mental health problems interact and influence each other. Prevention strategies target promotion, early intervention, treatment and social support/rehabilitation.
This document discusses addressing co-dependency and abandonment fears. It defines co-dependency as basing one's self-worth on rescuing others, and explores how co-dependent behaviors stem from low self-esteem and fears of abandonment. The document reviews attachment theory, outlines core abandonment beliefs like mistrust and defectiveness, and provides questions therapists can ask clients to help them recognize abandonment triggers and choose more constructive responses. The goal is to help clients develop self-worth and form healthy relationships.
A model explaining "self-ness" does not need to be perfect, rather, only good enough, for us to see ways to cultivate, engage, and change it that will likely make a needed difference.

The “summer slide” may sound like fun, but it’s definitely something you’ll want to keep your kids far away from this summer! It’s a phenomenon teachers know all too well – the loss of knowledge and ability that typically occurs when formal education stops during the summer months.
During the summer, kids (yes, even GT and TAG kids) can lose an average of 2.6 months of grade level equivalency in math computation skills and 25% of their reading skills. Mental training can improve the brain, just as physical exercise can improve the body. So, here are some tips to keep your kids from “losing it” over summer break.
In this webinar, you'll learn:
What parents can do to prevent the "Summer Slide"
What skills children need to exercise over the summer to prevent the "Summer Slide"
How and why to incorporate physical activity into mental exercises
Prepare for the start of a great school year over summer break
How to determine gaps and areas to focus on over the summer

Intervening on behalf of children subject to domestic violence with due consi...Gary Direnfeld
Given domestic violence and children, there is a hierarchy of interventions to be deployed in the interest of mitigating impacts and facilitating reasonable psycho-social development. Further and given a multi-cultural context, there are strategies to be deployed to enable culturally sensitive interventions with the aspiration of improving outcomes for the entire family – including the perpetrator.
Children who witness domestic violence suffer physically and emotionally. They are more likely to experience behavioral, social, and psychological problems including depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and difficulty forming relationships. The trauma can negatively impact their development into adulthood. Exposure to violence in the home creates an environment of constant fear for children and affects their ability to feel safe and secure.

In earlier times, family violence was largely invisible. In recent In earlier times, family violence was largely invisible. In recent
decades there has been more recognition of the problems and study
of the causes and consequences. Nevertheless, family violence
remains hidden much of the time. The fact that it is hidden reflects the
fact that vulnerable populations do not have the ability to expose the
perpetrator or access effective help from the larger society.

As a form of direct violence, family violence involves deliberate injury to the

integrity of human life. This injury can be physical and/or psychological.
•Family violence can include restrictions on the activities, and even the
thoughts, of the victims, and actual physical constraints.
•Brutality includes battering and other forms of maltreatment, torture, rape,
etc.
•Homicide involve the illegal taking of a life.
•American society and other industrialized societies are patriarchal. In fact
patriarchy has been the norm for most societies. In earlier societies, the
patriarchal head of the household had tremendous power over the other
members of the family. For example, in British Common Law and in the
American colonies there was a “rule of thumb” which stated that a man could
not beat his wife with a stick whose circumference was larger than that of his
thumb. In fact, homicide was often an option and/or a reality. The
persistence of such practices as “honor killings” and female genital
mutilation reflect the persistence of this level of patriarchy in some societies
and families.
•Power implies inequality. To the extent that power and control form a part
of the self-concept of the head of the household or the breadwinner, we see
a tendency for that power to be abused, especially when the abuser feels
inadequate or when their power is threatened.
•Unequal power relationships reflect the norms and values of a society.
Ideas about the appropriate roles to play and the behaviors associated with
these roles result in the creation and perpetuation of relative powerlessness
in certain categories of the population. In addition, the victimization of such
categories tends to be invisible because they have little or not recourse
against the abusive behavior of the dominant member(s) of the family.
