Book Description
There are two intertwined narratives in this book. The first story is that of Amelia, an educated Latin American woman who fell in love with a vacationing American schoolteacher and eventually followed him to the United States. It is not quite a love story. Rather, it is the story of what happens in a loving relationship after the Disney movie ends, after the prince carries away the princess on his white horse to live happily ever after. It is the story of Amelia¿s life before and after the great romantic connection faded and after the prince¿s great white horse had been put to pasture. It describes the healing of both the childhood wounds and post-marital wounds that had to heal in order for Amelia¿s marriage to work. Amelia¿s story reveals itself¿sometimes in current events, sometimes in childhood experiences¿over the course of 77 one-hour sessions and one three-hour session during 22 months of psychotherapy.The second narrative describes how Parts and Memory Therapy works¿as it heals Amelia and reveals the fascinating details of her inner world. This world, like the inner worlds of other normal people, contains many selves: angry, sad, lonely, loving and nurturing, young, old, caring and uncaring. As Amelia visualizes her many Parts, or subpersonalities, some appear exactly as she remembers herself at different ages of her life. Others have no resemblance to her at all¿in fact they seem to be products of a vivid and sometimes strange imagination. The story of discovery of¿and work with¿personified Parts of the self forms the core of the book. (The Disney/Pixar movie Inside Out has already introduced the larger public to the idea that we all have internal thinking and feeling Parts of ourselves that sometimes act on their own.)Parts and Memory Therapy is currently the only psychotherapy that focuses on the traumatized Parts of the self as targets for healing while also grounding the healing interventions in the neuroscience of memory reconsolidation.

Parts and Memory Therapy

Languages : en
Pages : 188
Book Description
Parts and Memory Therapy (P&MT) is the new name for Parts Psychology, changed in order to emphasize the importance of memory as wells as Parts of the self. Other names for Parts include ego states, voices, subpersonalities, self-states, sides, and more. The book presents both the complete framework for the P&MT model and detailed descriptions and examples of how to use it. Most simply put , the foundational protocol for working with psychotherapy clients involves (1) a concrete description of the problem; (2) accessing the Part of self that carries the memories of the problem; (3) eliciting the emotion memories that sustain the problem; and (4) neutralizing the emotion memories through the neuroscience technique of memory reconsolidation. Through detailed descriptions of the normally nonconscious dynamics of how emotion memories maintain psychological problems, and through equally detained descriptions of tools and techniques for neutralizing those emotion memories, readers will discover an entirely new perspective on consciousness and how to integrate it into their own professional and private lives.

Amelia's Way
Author:
Publisher: Andre Heyns
ISBN: 0620578866
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
Some might say we are what we inherit. Others may suggest that one ought to ponder over where we come from, claiming that it serves as a moral compass and guides us on our journey through life. Our lives would scarcely be interesting if we were able to predict the details of our destination. Instead one should savour the experiences and embrace the journey. Amelia Binneman was a farmer's daughter, a Boer woman whose light shone brightly. From the outset she had a clear perception of the life she wanted, a life etched in her dreams and expectations. One night of passion during her final year at school changed everything. All the dreams she had and the pledges she ever made, were in jeopardy. It prompted her into leaving the Cape Colony and joining her parents on a journey to Springfontein, a remote village in the Republic of the Orange Free State, where they began farming. The story is told against the background of the Anglo Boer War in 1899 and describes Amelia's journey of survival, taken by women and children. It tells of the gold rush on the Witwatersrand and how the leaders chose war while grasping at greed, allowing the option of peace to pass them by. It explores the lives of ordinary people who were caught up in the turmoil of this war, some of whom were incarcerated in refugee camps. It tells of an intrepid group of people, who abandoned their farm to escape the dominance of the British, and who were given refuge by a Koranna tribe in a settlement near the Basotholand border. It is here that Amelia meets the benevolent Chief Thaba and the intimidating Pulani, a sangoma with whom she forges a relationship and discovers a remarkable cure for one of the many ailments that ravaged the lives of children during the war. After learning that her mother Helena and companion Mieta were captured and relocated to a new camp at Norvals Pont, Amelia and her son Daniel attempt a daring mission to rescue them. The story describes the events that led Amelia's father Christoffel Binneman, to assist Generals De la Rey, De Wet and others, before they assembled at Melrose House in Pretoria on the 31st May 1902, to sign the Peace Treaty of Vereeniging. It describes the futility of this war.
