Using behavioral activation and cognitive interventions to treat depression among Latinos. Treating aggression, substance use, abuse, and dependence among Latino Adults. Treating behavioral problems among Latino adolescents. Treating anxiety among Latino children. Working with Latino couples. Restoring legal competency with Latinos. The Toolkit for Counseling Spanish-Speaking Clients fills a glaring need in behavioral service delivery, offering health psychologists, social workers, clinical psychologists, neuropsychologists, and other helping professionals culturally-relevant support for working with this under served population. The materials included here are an important step toward dismantling barriers to mental health care.

Past in the Making
Author: Michal Kopecek
Publisher:
ISBN: 9639776041
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 277
Book Description
Historical revisionism, far from being restricted to small groups of ‘negationists,’ has galvanized debates in the realm of recent history. The studies in this book range from general accounts of the background of recent historical revisionism to focused analyses of particular debates or social-cultural phenomena in individual Central European countries, from Germany to Ukraine and Estonia. Where is the borderline between legitimate re-examination of historical interpretations and attempts to rewrite history in a politically motivated way that downgrades or denies essential historical facts? How do the traditional ‘national historical narratives’ react to the ‘spill-over’ of international and political controversies into their ‘sphere of influence’? Technological progress, along with the overall social and cultural decentralization shatters the old hierarchies of academic historical knowledge under the banner of culture of memory, and breeds an unequalled democratization in historical representation. This book offers a unique approach based on the provocative and instigating intersection of scholarly research, its political appropriations, and social reflection from a representative sample of Central and East European countries.

Vladislaus Henry
Author: Martin Wihoda
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004303839
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 377
Book Description
This book offer a biography of a key East Central European ruler, Vladislaus Henry, who ruled the Margraviate of Moravia from 1198 to 1222 and, in cooperation with his brother, King Přemysl Otakar I of Bohemia, was involved in the transformation of the Holy Roman Empire into a free union of Princes. The study also describes the successful modernisation of Moravia and Bohemia during the 13th century, and reflects on the beginnings of the politically emancipated community of the Moravians, which was defined by land values. The work thus draws attention to a previously overlooked dimension of the European Middle Ages, including the history of not only states and nations but also of lands.

Category : Fiction

Book Description
"This story starts with a gruesome bang and does not let up until the very end. I love a good creature feature and Bedbugs did not disappoint." - taken from a recent review on Amazon USA How can you kill something so small, so fast, that only appears at night? The old saying - 'NIGHT, NIGHT, SLEEP TIGHT & DON'T LET THE BEDBUGS BITE' - becomes more than just words after a mother speaks it to her child, in this story set in a small town infested with tiny, killer, alien insects. As a child, my mother would say the old bedbugs saying after tucking me into bed at night, but that saying freaked me out that I would sleep under the covers so the bedbugs couldn't bite me...Many years later, I wrote a story based on my fear growing up... When unsolved murders from 1947 are linked with a murdering spree happening in 2020, the people of Lemonsville become worried. It takes the police chief on a journey to find answers, but time is running out as more people are either killed or taken in the night. Now, the townsfolk are blaming each other for the deaths. But it's not until members of a vigilante group are found dead that the chief realizes it's not a human he's looking for. Now, he must unravel the truth before the dark shadow that lurks in the darkness kills again. If you like creature feature-style stories then give my novel a read - Written with that 50's B-movie style vibe, & with characters that will make you laugh, my story will take you into the town of Lemonsville, where your imagination will live with characters that may remind you of people you know. Packed with horrific moments and suspense that will leave you shouting - GET OUT - my bedbugs will have you changing your bedsheets. Just don't say the words - night, night, sleep tight & don't let the bedbugs bite - or my little critters will eat you...
