Human nature | Diana Goes to America

Diana Goes to America. Laquo; What’s in a name? A BPD client, by any other name, would be treated the same… or would she? Posted November 27, 2012 by Diana in Disparate thoughts and musings. When I read some of this week’s articles, I couldn’t help but think that human nature has been a problem for, well, humans since Biblical times. After all, what was it that made Eve taste the forbidden fruit, and then offer it to Adam, and what made Adam take it? One human attribute is resistance to change, but I thi...

Diana Goes to America. Archive for October, 2010. Posted by Diana in poetry. I like swimming in rivers. It’s the feeling of water rushing through my hair. The feeling of freedom as I rush downstream. The feeling of speed that I think I can control. The river takes me. And turns me into someone else. And willing to do whatever it takes to keep the river happy. Girl, if you like waterfalls all that much,. Take a walk on the shore. And look at them from afar. Will only leave you. What I write about.

Diana Goes to America. Posted by Diana in Disparate thoughts and musings. Although Castonguay et al.’s paper seemed a bit contradictory in some places – or maybe it was just constantly accounting for caveats – it was a breath of fresh air compared to our previous discussions in the class. How nice to finally hear that “the relationship matters! Are we culturally insensitive and incapable of forming a real alliance with clients of different backgrounds? Or is this due to a client bias? What is there to do?

Diana Goes to America. Archive for September, 2012. The end of theoretical orientations? Posted by Diana in Disparate thoughts and musings. Is that a good idea? Should we require people to disregard their beliefs and training if the modalities they use are not supported by current data? What if they are obscure or not widely used, but have been proved to work in this particular practitioner’s case? On another note, are there advantages to endorsing a theoretical orientation versus “eclectic? 3) therapist...

A brave heart and a courteous tongue, they shall carry thee far through the Jungle, Manling." Rudyard Kipling's The Jungle Book. Friday, June 29, 2012. By Jean-Jacques Henner (1829-1905). That being said, you will occassionally find some religious themed works scattered amongst my posts. They won't be the overly preachy kind, but the kind that give you just enough to think about. And being curious about all religions as I am, there's sure to be a good mix of topics traveling through. As soon as you are o...

Meeting the Madwoman - book reviews

http://meeting-the-madwoman.weebly.com/book-reviews.html

The story of the madwoman. The world doesn't need another wanderlusting soul seeker. The world needs a homemaker - me - to make my home within it. Hand Wash Cold, p.66. The best case scenario of an ordinary life. The sun gives attention, and attention fixes everything. (p. 127). This kind of presence - full, vital, and affirming - is attention. The sun attends the earth and everything in it. (p.128). Attention is the most concrete expression of love. What we pay attention to thrives. So I'm steady now.

From the way Hayes approached answering the question, I gather that it was the former: the efficacy of the treatments was called into question based on the lack of research in the field (is that right?

Is it not our obligation as clinicians to act in the sole best interest of the client, no matter how that makes us feel about our capabilities?

But Coyne also tells us that strangers also reject depressed people after a conversation of mere minutes. Will family therapy change any of that? Do we need one treatment aimed at interactions with strangers and another one aimed at interactions with our loved ones? To sleep or not to sleep. Posted by Diana in Disparate thoughts and musings.
