Creative Therapy for Children with Autism, ADD, and Asperger's
Using Artistic Creativity to Reach, Teach, and Touch Our Children

Janet Tubbs

Softbound

$18.95

 

Creative Therapy

 

Anyone who is concerned with the seemingly exponential increase in children manifesting a wide variety of developmental syndromes will rejoice at the appearance of Janet Tubb's truly great book. Janet has worked for over thirty years with children with difficulties ranging from low self-esteem to autism, ADD and more. She has developed her own approach using art, music, and movement - and, when research supports it, nutritional supplements or modifications. Her awareness of children's developmental needs and the effects various artistic therapies can have has its roots in both Waldorf education and conventional therapeutic research and modalities.

Her book is a powerful gift, filled with clear pictures of children with various difficulties, incredibly helpful advice that is amazingly multi-dimensional, and clear instructions for delivering a cornucopia of therapeutic activities and exercises.

Thank you, Janet!

A Phenomena-Based Physics - Sound, Light, Heat - Grade 8

 


This is a handbooks of essential stress management skills for families with ADD children!

Children with ADD can have severe and very challenging behavioral problems. Research has shown that some children are born difficult to parent. These children may be unmanageable, have no friends, be full of rage, or take dangerous or destructive risks. They may carry any number of psychiatric labels: ADD, ADHD, Tourette Syndrome, Obsessive Compulsive, or Depressed - and, their extremely stressful behavior can destroy family unity.

In our society these children are frequently medicated or placed in mental hospitals. But this doesn't have to happen. Author and therapist George Lynn works with "difficult" children in his practice and he has addressed these problems as both parent and counselor. He provides parents with methods which can heal the fractures and pain that occur in these families. He believes these "troubled" children are invariably gifted in unusual ways.

Lynn describes six essential strategies parents can use to deal with their own distress and rage as a result of a child's provocation. He also addresses the problems confronting single parents with ADD children.

Women with Attention Deficit Disorder

 


Sari Solden combines real-life histories and treatment experiences with the latest clinical research to create a new screening checklist specifically for women. She highlights the special challenges women with ADD face, describes what to look for and what to look out for in treatment and counseling, and outlines empowering steps that women living with ADD may use to change their lives.

Solden poignantly depicts the shame many women experience as they find themselves unable to live up to expectations ingrained early in life. Through exercises, self-talk, and client stories, she helps women dismantle their self-images as "slobs" or "space cadets" and enjoy success on their own terms.
