NADD # DA10-048B Details   Positive Identity Development Author: Karyn Harvey, PhD Positive Identity Development is an exciting new approach to treatment for individuals with intellectual disabilities.  This book provides a new theoretical perspective on treatment along with a variety of innovative tools.  It rejects reducing adults with intellectual disabilities to a mere compilation of their behaviors and promotes the use of a positive, therapeutic approach to each unique individual. Psychologists, social workers and therapists should be able to use the tools presented in this book to directly enhance the effectiveness of the treatment they provide to adults with intellectual disabilities. This book promotes well-being on every level and explores a broad range of issues relevant to the life and mental health of adults with intellectual disabilities Mbr Price: $34.95 Non-Mbr:  $39.95 NADD #CT09-047B Details Down Syndrome: When to Worry about Mental Health and What to Do About It Robin Friedlander, M.D. & Peter Johnson, Ph.D. NADD # FI09-044B Details Working with People who have Intellectual Disability and Behavioral Problems: A Self-Study Guide for Interdisciplinary Team Members Ann R.
