Treatments and Supports - Volume II

Edited by: Johnny L. Matson, Ph.D.; Rinita B. Laud,
M.A.; Michael L. Matson
Description:
This book represents the second of two volumes that is designed to
update readers on some of the more recent developments in the field
of dual diagnosis, as applied to those with intellectual
disabilities. While the last few decades have boasted newer and
better advances in the field, particularly in terms of assessment
devices and treatment approaches, there still remains a lot to be
done. The first of this series of volumes covers and array of topic
areas that include assessment techniques and procedures, as well as
the current status and issues that affect the field as a whole. The
present volume also explores various treatment techniques, but also
includes important information regarding the teaching of necessary
skills to aide in the transition of individuals with intellectual
disabilities into the community. |

Human Needs and Intellectual Disabilities: Applications for Person
Centered Planning, Dual Diagnosis, and Crisis Intervention
Steven Reiss, Ph.D.
Human Needs and Intellectual Disabilities identifies the 12 human
needs most relevant to the lives of people with intellectual
disabilities, autism and related developmental disabilities. It
includes detailed, practical suggestions for caregivers or parents
interested in the happiness, quality of life, and self-determintion
of their loved ones or consumers. The book includes detailed,
practical suggestions for reducing episodes of challenging behavior
and psychiatric symptoms in people with a dual diagnosis
(intellectual disabilities and mental illness). It shows how to
substitute the language of individuality (e.g., "friendly
person") for the language of disability (e.g., "person with
disability"). It also reduces the tendency of planners to
confuse their own value system for that of the consumer. The
book includes scholarly reviews of dual diagnosis literature on
mental illness, prevalence, and assessment.

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
