Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - She has never forgotten anything in her life. Now she is finding documents in her own handwriting that she cannot remember writing.Mara Ellison has spent twenty years in the City building a reputation on one quality above all others: she is never wrong about a detail. As senior compliance officer at Albion Crown Bank, she is the person the board wheels out when the regulator needs reassuring.Then a routine review turns up something that should not exist. Hundreds of small, entirely lawful payments moving through the bank in the same rehearsed order, week after week, each one carefully sized to slip beneath the threshold that would trigger a look.That evening she finds a note folded under her keyboard, written in her own hand.Stop looking at Meridian.She has never heard the word before.What follows is a compliance report closed six months ago under her electronic signature. An hour missing from an executive meeting she is certain she sat through. A frightened woman in the lift who says somebody found this pattern before, and whom Human Resources insists has never worked at the bank. Her mentor, Helen Vale, gently suggests exhaustion. The bank's occupational psychologist offers an explanation that fits a little too neatly.Somebody is altering the record. What Mara cannot establish, as the evidence accumulates against her and the people she trusts close ranks, is whether they needed to alter very much at all.A slow-burn psychological thriller set in the London financial world, for readers who want their protagonists compromised, their villains reasonable, and their endings honest.What happens when the only witness who can prove the crime may also have committed it.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Good therapeutic questions are not just a matter of wording. Timing, tone and the client's readiness matter as much as what is actually asked, and the wrong question at the wrong moment can do more harm than staying quiet. This book is a working reference for counsellors who want fast, reliable access to well-considered questions for the situations that actually come up in a session, built to be read cover to cover or opened mid-week while preparing for a client.The questions are organised in two layers. Important ones get a full entry: why the question matters, when it tends to be useful, what to listen for in the answer, a gentler version for a client who isn't ready to go there directly, and a caution where timing is genuinely delicate. Beneath these sit question banks, shorter lists of related questions that let a counsellor find several workable options quickly without wading through commentary on every single one.Chapters move through the main therapeutic approaches: person-centred, psychodynamic, CBT, solution-focused, ACT, existential, narrative, Gestalt, attachment-focused, compassion-focused, emotion-focused and motivational interviewing. Then they move through what clients actually bring into the room, among them anxiety, depression, shame and guilt (kept as separate chapters, since clinically they call for different questions), grief, perfectionism, people-pleasing, identity, relationship patterns and life transitions. A further section deals with moments that resist any modality at all: a client who says 'I don't know' and means several different things by it, silence that shouldn't be interrupted, intellectualising, and the sessions where it's the counsellor who feels stuck.Sensitive areas get their own space rather than being folded into general chapters, including trauma-informed questioning, cultural difference, and the gap between exploring a client's experience and formally assessing risk. There's also a chapter on questions that can cause harm if timed badly, with a more careful alternative alongside each one. Cross-references and three indexes, by subject, by purpose and by modality, keep the whole thing searchable under pressure.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Two hundred and seventy-three feelings, and what each one is for.Most of us talk about our emotions the way we talk about the weather. It came over me. It hit me out of nowhere. It passed. Weather has no cause worth finding and no logic worth working with, which leaves only one thing to do with a difficult feeling: endure it. A great many people endure things for years that would have yielded in months to a different question.This book starts somewhere else. Every emotion is machinery, and machinery has a job. Fear prepares a body to run. Shame prepares it to be smaller. Grief, strangely and painfully, prepares it to search, which is why the bereaved scan crowds and cannot delete the number, and why so many of them privately believe they are losing their mind. They are not. Once you know what a feeling is doing, the question changes from how do I make this stop, which is almost never answerable, to what is this for, which frequently is.Part One explains how emotions actually work: why they were set the way they were, why what you feel on the surface is so often not what is running underneath, and why some people can look inward and find nothing at all.Part Two is an A to Z of every named state, from Abandonment Panic to Wretchedness. Each entry covers what the feeling is, what it is for, what it does to your body, what helps, what makes it worse, and, most usefully, what it gets mistaken for.That last part is the heart of it. Shame and guilt behave completely differently and almost everyone uses the words interchangeably. Envy and jealousy are not the same feeling. Burnout is not depression. Acceptance is not resignation. An enormous amount of stuck effort comes from working patiently on the wrong state.This is not a diagnosis, a programme, or a course of treatment, and it says so plainly. It is a reference: for the feeling you cannot name, the reaction that seems out of proportion, and the words you have needed and never had. …

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - There is a particular moment in a session when you cannot name what is in front of you.The client is describing something, and it is not quite grief, not quite shame, not quite the thing your training predicted. What you say next will either open it or close it.This is a reference book for that moment.The Clinical Anatomy of Emotion sets out 128 emotional states, each under the same twelve headings. What it is. What it is doing. How it shows in the body. How clients actually say it. What it may be covering, and what may be arriving disguised as it. How to tell it apart from the states it gets confused with, and the question that discriminates. What to do next. What most practitioners do instead, and why that move so often confirms the state it was meant to interrupt. What it pulls from you. Where the risk sits, and where it does not.Two arguments run underneath it. The first is that clients are right about their situations more often than a counsellor's training predisposes them to assume, and that treating an accurate perception as a symptom is its own clinical error. The second is that the instinct to relieve discomfort is the main mechanism by which clinical material gets lost. Almost every common error described in this book is a kind one.The states are organised in layers: the defensive and shielding states, the self-conscious and shame states, the core and primary responses, the inhibitory and depressive states, the integrated and healing states, and a lexicon of positive states that clinical writing usually skips over. Behind them sit nine appendices, including a somatic index that runs backwards from what you observed to what it might be, a differential guide to the pairs most often confused, a counter-transference check that reads your own reactions as data, a risk and escalation card, language and scripts, guidance on working with alexithymia and interoceptive difference, and client-facing handouts.It is built to be opened rather than read. Every entry is numbered and cross-referenced, so a state points you at its neighbours and at whatever it is commonly mistaken for.Written for qualified and trainee counsellors, psychotherapists, supervisors and allied practitioners. The framework draws on psychodynamic practice and affective neuroscience, and it says plainly where the evidence is solid, where it is contested, and where an entry is offering a considered next move rather than something with a trial behind it.…
