Book Description
Ethically navigating self-disclosure between one’s art therapy practice and one’s arts practice can be complicated, confusing, and critically important. Within the credentialed discipline of art therapy, ethical considerations around how much of one's personal life and history to reveal in their arts practice can take on more significance than in more unregulated fields like fine art. In my graduate project, I am researching the complex experience, as an art therapist-in-training, of disclosing personal information in my arts practice. To research this, I’ve completed the Bowen family therapy directive: the family genogram. A family genogram is a family tree-like visual chart that is encoded with symbols and markers that denote the mental health and relational family history of a therapeutic client. In my family genogram, the markers include instances of suicide, sexual abuse, substance use disorder, and depression. For my graduate project, I used my family genogram and the information encoded within it, as a visual score to create a sonic family genogram. Abstracting the visual data of my family genogram into sound not only allowed me the opportunity to mitigate unethical personal disclosure, but also empowered me to amplify my emotional response to my experience of existing within a family navigating generational trauma. Though the ability to sonify my genogram equipped me with a framework and methodology to artistically articulate my experience and conceal certain personal truths, it did not in any way simplify or ease my reckoning with my personal and family history. In fact, the process was riddled with uncomfortable and destabilizing situations that revealed and emphasized to me the importance of therapeutic support and containment when engaging art therapy directives. The emotional toll inherent within this research was significant in that it allowed me to get a much more refined understanding of the many psychological rigors that art therapy clients endure on their healing journey. It gave me insight into how I can better contain, support and steward art therapy clients through the process of art therapy.

Book Description
From a “perceptive writer whose work makes us painfully aware of our human follies and acknowledges our lovely humanity” (Audrey Niffenegger, bestselling author of The Time Traveler’s Wife) comes suspenseful novel about a missing girl whose disappearance rocks her community. Six years after the traumatic disappearance of Etta Messenger, it's clear that none of the members of her middle-class family have finished mourning. Gaping emotional wounds have been poorly addressed. Etta's mother, Meg, anxious to find closure and make what she can of the rest of her life, has organized a memorial service to mark the painful anniversary. Newton, Etta's erstwhile high school sweetheart, a disabled Afghanistan veteran with anger issues, uses the impending anniversary as a convenient excuse to spin out of control. Charlie, Etta's earnest blue-collar father, takes stock of his life and is reminded how he failed to protect his daughter. Her younger brother, Townes, who was the last of them to see Etta and is convinced his emotional outburst drove his sister away, has his fragile hermetic cocoon threatened by the heightened emotions of the day. On the day of the memorial, a snowstorm threatens the city, and a chance observation on a commuter train entangles Townes in a dangerous situation that recall the events surrounding Etta's loss. The characters are shaken from their mournful routines by an unrelenting chain of events, including Newton's arrest, Townes' dangerous heroics, Charlie's recognition of his own shortcomings, and Meg's shocking discovery. The action moves from the seemingly serene suburbs to the heart of a dangerous Chicago neighborhood. Will this ensemble of damaged characters pull themselves together in time, or will new stresses rip their tattered lives to shreds...

Book Description
Vital Memory and Affect takes as its subject the autobiographical memories of ‘vulnerable’ groups, including survivors of child sexual abuse, adopted children and their families, forensic mental health service users, and elderly persons in care home settings. In particular the focus is on a particular class of memory within this group: recollected episodes that are difficult and painful, sometimes contested, but always with enormous significance for a current and past sense of self. These ‘vital memories’, integral and irreversible, can come to appear as a defining feature of a person’s life. In Vital Memory and Affect, authors Steve Brown and Paula Reavey explore the highly productive way in which individuals make sense of a difficult past, situated as they are within a highly specific cultural and social landscape. Via an exploration of their vital memories, the book combines insights from social and cognitive psychology to open up the possibility of a new approach to memory, one that pays full attention to the contextual conditions of all acts of remembering. This path-breaking study brings together a unique set of empirical material and maps out an agenda for research into memory and affect that will be important reading for students and scholars of social psychology, memory studies, cultural studies, philosophy, and other related fields.

Book Description
Ecclesiastes is a strange and wonderful book. It is a strange book because of its startling cynicism and words of wisdom that offer very little of the solace we might expect from sacred scripture ... And yet, Ecclesiastes is a wonderful book, precisely because it is strange. Like Job, and like Jesus, it will not let us fall back on ready answers or take comfort in a religious orthodoxy that satisfies our need for order and predictability. The Philosopher takes us to a place well beyond the limits of our understanding, well beyond our capacity to know and do and control our own destiny. The Philosopher, like Job, and like Jesus, leads us well past the borders of our comfort zones to the place where God -- and God alone -- is.

Book Description
In Love Your Life, Not Theirs, Rachel Cruze shines a spotlight on the most damaging money habit we have: comparing ourselves to others. Then she unpacks seven essential money habits for living the life we really want--a life in line with our values, where we can afford the things we want to buy without being buried under debt, stress, and worry. The Joneses are broke. Life looks good, but hidden beneath that glossy exterior are credit card bills, student loans, car payments, and an out-of-control mortgage. Their money situation is a mess, and they're trying to live a life they simply can't afford. So why exactly do we try so hard to keep up with the Joneses? Are we really living the lives we want, or are we chasing someone else's dream, just trying to keep up appearances on social media, at church, and in our community? Why are we letting other people set the pace for our own family's finances? In Love Your Life, Not Theirs, Rachel shows you how to buy and do the things that are important to you--the right way. That starts by choosing to quit the comparisons, reframing the way you think about money, and developing new habits like avoiding debt, living on a plan, watching your spending, saving for the future, having healthy conversations about money, and giving. These habits work, and Rachel is living proof. Now, she wants to empower you to live the life you've always dreamed of without creating the debt, stress, and worry that are all too often part of the deal. Social media isn't real life, and trying to keep up with the Joneses will never get you anywhere. It's time to live--and love--your life, not theirs. "I've never read a book about money that takes this approach--and that's a good thing! Comparison has a way of weaving itself throughout all aspects of our lives, including our money. In Love Your Life, Not Theirs, Rachel Cruze outlines the seven money habits that really matter--and they have nothing to do with keeping up with the Joneses!" Candace Cameron-Bure Actress, author, and co-host of The View "Love Your Life, Not Theirs is full of the kind of practical, straightforward advice we've come to expect from Rachel Cruze. She offers guidance on paying down debt, smart saving, and the right way to talk to your spouse about money. These indispensable tips can help with day-to-day spending decisions and put you on a path to establishing healthy financial habits." Susan Spencer Editor-in-Chief for Woman's Day "Cruze's self-deprecating and honest voice is a great resource for anyone wanting to take charge of their money. With humor and approachability, she helps her readers set themselves up for success and happiness, no matter what current financial state they may be in." Kimberly Williams-Paisley New York Times best-selling author of Where the Light Gets In "In today's world of social media, the temptation to play the comparison game is stronger than ever. Love Your Life, Not Theirs is the perfect reminder that, when it comes to money, comparison is a game you can't win. A terrific--and much needed--read."
