Treating Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents: A Clinician's Guide
Help your clients heal the emotional wounds created by growing up with emotionally immature parents.
If you treat clients who grew up with an emotionally immature, unavailable, or self-involved parent, you know all too well the lingering feelings of anger, loneliness, betrayal, or abandonment these clients experience in their daily lives. This comprehensive professional guide goes beyond mechanistic prescriptions to show you how to help clients not only recover from their symptoms--such as a lack of confidence--but to also restart their own personal growth and self-actualization process.
In Treating Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents, psychologist and New York Times bestselling author Lindsay C. Gibson draws on more than thirty years of clinical experience as a psychotherapist, and outlines a unique approach to treating an extremely common syndrome that shapes the lives of so many people seeking therapy. In the book, Gibson also shares her perspectives on the goals of therapy, and what therapists need to know in order to provide the most effective interventions. Using these insights, you can help your clients heal from feelings of loneliness and abandonment, improve confidence, decrease reactivity to emotionally immature behavior, find healthy ways to stop self-sacrificing and meet their own emotional needs, and rediscover their true selves.
You'll also find powerful, effective therapeutic strategies to:
- Establish a healing relationship with your clients
- Help your clients feel seen and validated
- Teach clients how to draw boundaries with emotionally immature people
- Help clients think through when to cut ties with their parents or others
- Help clients uncover self-defeating beliefs and engage in self-healing work
By helping clients free themselves from the effects of emotionally immature people--whether their parents or other people in their lives--you'll help them to create healthy, reciprocal, and positive relationships that uplift them and improve their overall quality of life.

Crawl: Stories
A darkly comic, introspective debut collection that looks beneath the surface of trans life in 2010s Seattle

What obligation do you have to intervene in the faltering mental health of the baby trans drug dealer you've met only once while tripping on the acid he sold you?

Max Delsohn's stories--by turns exuberant, heartfelt, tragic, and wry--portray the pleasures and pains of sex and romance, the possibilities and ambivalences of gender expression, and the joys and failures of community in a city and a time that has branded itself a radical queer utopia but proves much more complicated in reality. -

Sold outAndy Warhol: Velvet Rage and Beauty
Andy Warhol's continuous pursuit of ideal beauty--visible in a body of his work that is brought here together for the first time. Andy Warhol is arguably one of the most widely known and discussed artists of the twentieth century. While his depictions of consumer products and celebrities led him to become household famous, there is a red thread throughout his career, starting even in the late forties until his untimely death in 1987. In the eighties Warhol was continuously searching to visualize an ideal of beauty, male beauty, finding form and creating lasting images of what he desired. He visualized and therefore eternalized this continuous pursuit of ideal beauty.
From the early line and blotted line drawings to his screen tests and moving image experiments in the sixties, the torso paintings in the seventies through his collaborations with Jean-Michel Basquiat, there is a continuous search to express an ideal of male beauty. During his lifetime these works were either considered inappropriate, immoral, deviant or even pornographic and therefore illegal. Many of these works never received the public exposure and recognition that they deserve. Neue Nationalgalerie is for the first time putting together a large survey focusing on this thematic and central aspect throughout Warhol's different production phases and stages of career. This publication offers an insight into a Warhol, that during his lifetime never had a real "coming-out".
Warhol died in 1987 at the age of only 58. He left behind an incredibly complex and influential body of work, which during his lifetime never experienced the open acceptance that we now have to look at these specific bodies of work.Sold out -
