What if it were possible to recreate history, to reach across time toward some defining moment and mend a psyche wounded by empathetic failure or abuse? One July, nine people gathered in a Los Angeles studio to attempt just such a regeneration. Each came bearing the weight of a troubled past, of addiction, violence, neglect. All were transformed by the effects of psychodrama.

Led by Dr. Tian Dayton, one of the foremost practitioners of psychodrama working today, Scott, Onika, Rick and the other participants in THE PROCESS are taken through a powerful form of experimental group therapy in which members help one another to heal old hurts through role play. Through both this role-playing as well as the dynamics of group therapy, the participants form a fuller understanding of the events that have framed their lives. Psychodrama allows for a fuller expression of self on all levels, providing a safe space in which to explore not only our past wounds, but aspects of the self. The group is "society in miniature" (Moreno, 1936) with all of its encumbant trials, fears, joys, hopes and dreams. With candor, compassion and wit, THE PROCESS unveils the restorative power of psychodrama. Helmed in a graphically dynamic style by Academy Award-nominated director Richard Greenberg and generously funded by Gary Seidler, this groundbreaking project reveals with touching detail that, in an atmosphere of mutual support and understanding, even the most searing wounds can be healed and joy and laughter restored.

Substance Use Disorder Treatment for People with Physical and Cognitive Disabilities (Revised)
<b>NOTE: NO FURTHER DISCOUNT FOR THIS PRINT PRODUCT- OVERSTOCK SALE - Significantly reduced list price </b> <p/> This TIP, <i>Substance Use Disorder Treatment for People With Physical and Cognitive Disabilities</i>, is intended to enhance treatment providers' knowledge concerning people who have a physical or cognitive disability in addition to their substance use disorder. Treatment programs for substance use disorders already see many individuals with coexisting disabilities, but many providers fail to accommodate these individuals either because they are unaware of the disability or how accommodations can improve treatment outcomes (even though such accommodations are legally mandated). The first chapter defines and explains the issues involved in treating people with coexisting disabilities. Chapter 2 discusses how to screen for coexisting disabilities and how to adapt substance use disorder screenings for clients who have a disability. Chapter 3 discusses treatment planning and counseling&#x3b; it also describes how treatment can be modified to meet the particular needs of people with coexisting disabilities. Forming linkages with other service providers is the topic of Chapter 4, and Chapter 5 presents material for program administrators. In Appendix B, there is a comprehensive list of resources. Appendix C discusses the proper language to use when referring to people with disabilities. <i>Alcohol and Drug Programs and the Americans With Disabilities Act</i>, a pamphlet from the Pacific Research and Training Alliance, is reproduced in Appendix D.
