Parental estrangement refers to when children cut ties with their parents. It has become more common in modern society. Experts have found that many parental estrangements are due to unresolved disagreements rather than violence or neglect. Family therapy can help repair damaged parent-child relationships caused by estrangement. Estrangements often result from conflicts over new romantic relationships after divorce or from a child's accusations about lack of parental support or criticism, leaving heartbroken parents unable to communicate with their children.

Loss is a universal human experience that can occur throughout life. There are several types of loss, including maturational loss resulting from normal life transitions, situational loss from sudden external events, and personal loss requiring adaptation through grieving. Coping with loss involves both problem-focused strategies aimed at modifying the stressor's source, and emotion-focused strategies aimed at managing the emotional impact, such as meditation, biofeedback, relaxation techniques, spiritual practices, humor, and developing new skills. Effectively coping with loss is important for reducing anxiety, depression, and health problems.

The document discusses how depression rates have been increasing in modern societies as they become more westernized. Some experts believe this is due to a shift from community-focused to individual-focused cultures, where people no longer have the same emotional support from others that traditional communities provided. Without this support system, individuals may be more vulnerable to depression, especially during difficult times.
Fear of Frailty
Frailty—a syndrome of weakness, fatigue, and declining physical activity—is one of the major contributors to seniors’ loss of independence. There are different causes of frailty for different people.

Life beyond infertility: how to reconstruct their lives
This document discusses reconstructing the lives of biologically childless couples. It begins by stating that infertility affects over 70 million people worldwide, mostly in developing countries. The emotional consequences of infertility can be devastating, with depression being common. Quality of life is greatly impacted through stigma in the community and family. Counseling aims to help couples cope with their situation and consider alternative parenting options to reconstruct their lives beyond the desire for a child. While infertility treatment carries some health risks, there is no strong evidence that fertility drugs increase cancer risks, though infertility itself may modestly increase ovarian cancer risk. Overall the document focuses on understanding and supporting childless couples.

Heidi Kling
"I am a licensed clinical psychologist with 25 years of experience helping people to work through painful life events such loss or trauma, conflicts in relationships, or trouble with addiction. In addition to working closely with clients to help them manage the distress they may be experiencing in their lives in a healthy and adaptive manner, I also encourage self-reflection so that problems are less like to recur in the future. At times, this may require confronting past experiences that are surfacing in the present in the form of symptoms such as depression, anxiety, uncontrollable anger, or problems with intimacy. I use a direct and interactive approach to help clients clarify problems, apply strategies to minimize negative behavior patterns, and cope more effectively with painful emotions. I also believe extreme circumstances can lead to growth, clarity and a greater capacity for resilience in general and I can help in this area as well.
Ultimately, I believe the work and experience of psychotherapy can increase motivation and the capacity to change and heal, as well as allow clients to feel freer and more in control of their lives--and be less alone in their efforts to achieve this. Please feel free to reach out to see if we are good fit.

formulating treatment plans, it is vital to consider a number
of issues such as, among other things, the phenomenological
impact of the abuse, the family's level of dysfunction, the
environmental stability, the age of the child, and the child's
relationship to the offender.
The actual act of abuse is usually only one of myriad
experiences the child endures. More often than not, the recog
nition and reporting of the abuse to the authorities sets into
motion a number of legal and protective interventions that are
perplexing and anxiety-provoking to the child. Consequently,
the treatment of abused children is multidimensional and will
likely include an array of services including individual,
parent-child, group, and family therapy-all delivered within
the context of social service and legal systems that operate
within their own regulations and limitations.

38 THE HEALING POWER OF PLAY
The therapy of abused children includes the monitoring
of risk factors, coordination with a variety of agencies, ad
herence to requests for periodic reports, and a focus on
processing of the child and family's trauma, as well as inter
vention in intricate family dynamics, observation of parent
child interactions, work with foster families or other tem
porary caretakers for the child, advocacy efforts, testifying
in court as needed, and other special activities that are
discussed in the final chapter of this book.
The Phenomenological Experience
First and foremost, it is urgent to view each child's ex
perience as unique. References were made to "mediators of
abuse" earlier in this book, and there might be a temptation
to judge the impact of abuse by certain yardsticks, such as
the duration of the abuse, the severity, how many symptoms
arise, who the perpetrator was, or how the child appears. The
reality is that children react differently, and although the
research can serve as a kind of global map of common reper
cussions, only close examination will reveal the subtle
landmarks.
I once worked with a family of five children, ages two,
four, seven, ten, and fifteen, whose home was burned down
as a result of a freak gas explosion. The parents made swift
and appropriate responses, buying the children duplicates of
their favorite things, talking to them in a group about the
experience, and bringing themselves and the children for
some family counseling sessions. The parents commanded
authority, coped well with their stress, and conveyed positive
feelings to the children, centering on the fact that they had
all survived and that that was the most miraculous and
important thing. The parents also had the financial means
to rent a comfortable home, and their insurance provided
substantial compensation for erecting a new home. The
children were involved i.
The Treatment of Abused Children TREATMENT CON.docx
The document discusses considerations for treating abused children. It notes that treatment is multidimensional and may include individual, parent-child, group, and family therapy within legal and social service systems. The treatment monitors risk factors, coordinates with agencies, focuses on trauma processing for the child and family, and intervenes in family dynamics through observing parent-child interactions and advocating for the child. The treatment is also tailored to each child's unique experiences and perceptions, the family's level of dysfunction, environmental stability factors, the child's age, and relationship to the offender. Therapy may be intermittent and include work with temporary caretakers.

The summary emphasizes that Peratsakis views all problems as relating to social interactions and relationships. He believes the fundamental purpose of human nature is belongingness, and that intimacy, purpose, conflict and cooperation are central to human interaction. Peratsakis also discusses the importance of seeing beyond surface interpretations in psychotherapy.3 0-coping-with-self-harm-guide
This guide provides information for parents of children who self-harm, including:
- Self-harm is a way for young people to manage difficult emotions and can include cutting, overdosing, or other behaviors.
- Parents may feel upset, angry, or helpless when discovering their child's self-harm. It is important to listen without judgment and seek help.
- Signs a child may be self-harming include unexplained cuts or bruises, wearing long sleeves in warm weather, and low mood.
- Triggers for self-harm include depression, family problems, bullying, and peer influences. Parents should focus on understanding the emotions driving self-harm and suggesting alternative coping strategies.
Preschoolers and Cancer Treatment - A Developmental Primer
Eloah Rocha is a youth counselor who has worked with sick children for over a decade. When a young child is diagnosed with cancer, parents should provide age-appropriate information to address their questions and concerns. For children under 3, explanations should reassure them that medical procedures are not scary and their parents won't abandon them. Preschoolers ages 4-6 can understand more about cancer but worry it is their fault; they need reassurance this is not the case. Preschoolers also fear pain and discomfort from treatment but should be told doctors will help make it hurt less.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune Disease
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

The Phenomenon of Parental Estrangement
- 1. The Phenomenon of Parental Estrangement By Charlene Kushler
- 2. Introduction • As a privately practicing therapist, Dr. Charlene Kushler of ACS Assessment and Treatment Center provides care for families as well as individuals of all ages. Dr. Charlene Kushler has helped many people identify and cope with personal challenges such as parental estrangement. Parental estrangement, the phenomenon that occurs when children cut ties with the people who raised them, has become a growing trend in contemporary society. Mass media outlets such as the New York Times and the Today Show have discussed the topic and presented theories on its causes as well as potential ways to heal the rifts. Experts have found that many such rifts occur not as a result of violence or neglect but as a response to a disagreement that has been unresolved.
- 3. Parental Estrangement • Family therapy can often repair that damage to a parent-child relationship. Estrangements are common in response to conflict surrounding a romantic relationship, such as a parent developing a new significant relationship after a divorce. Still others follow a child's accusations about the parent's lack of support or criticism, and most result in heartbroken parents that cannot reach their children to explain or discuss the situation. In these situations, professionals often advise the parents to attempt open-ended contact on a regular basis. If the child allows a conversation to happen, experts suggest that parents remain receptive and not defensive and listen to concerns so that the child feels heard.
