Peter Jakob - Böcker

This book presents Nonviolent Resistance (NVR) for trauma‑focused care, adopting a systemic and trauma‑orientated approach to aggressive and self‑destructive behaviours in young people. Based on systemic therapy methods and principles in socio‑political NVR, NVR targets aggressive and self‑destructive child behaviours in a relational way to help parents develop self‑efficacy in responding to the problematic behaviour and grow a supportive community around the family. In this book, Peter Jakob integrates the original NVR model with aspects of trauma and attachment theory, solution‑focused therapy and narrative therapy, in order to expand the efficacy of NVR in trauma‑focused work. Grounded in Jakob’s extensive clinical experience and research, the book will help the reader navigate the complexity of working across various systems in family therapy and counselling, particularly within challenging contexts such as multi‑stressed families, adoptive families, foster‑ and residential care. Method descriptions and illustrative case examples are featured throughout the chapters to ultimately help readers contribute to their clients’ (re)discovery of their internal and interpersonal resources and ultimately promote healing from trauma for everyone involved. This text is an essential resource for a wide variety of mental health professionals, social workers and family workers, as well as caregivers and managers in residential care.

Was ist unter narrativer Therapie und weitergehend narrativer Praxis zu verstehen? Welche konzeptionellen und methodischen Weiter- und Neuentwicklungen hat sie in den letzten Jahren erfahren? Wie kann in verschiedensten Kontexten und Settings narrativ gearbeitet werden, welche Impulse für schulenübergreifendes, beraterisches und therapeutisches Tun ergeben sich daraus? Dieses umfassende Handbuch informiert fundiert und facettenreich über Begrifflichkeiten und theoretische Hintergründe, vor allem aber über die Praxis narrativen Vorgehens in psychosozialen und organisationsbezogenen Arbeitsfeldern. Aus der narrativen Therapie von White und Epston, der Philosophie von Deleuze und Braidotti und aus anderen Quellen gespeist steuern mehr als 45 Autorinnen und Autoren von nationalem und internationalem Rang eine große Bandbreite an neuen kreativen Arbeitsansätzen bei, untermauern narratives Verständnis mit theoretischen Grundlagentexten, präsentieren aktuelle Ergebnisse narrativer Forschung und geben sozialkritischen Perspektiven Raum.
