Dialectical Behaviour Therapy is based on a bio-social theory of borderline personality disorder. Linehan hypothesises that the disorder is a consequence of an emotionally vulnerable individual growing up within a particular set of environmental circumstances which she refers to as the 'Invalidating Environment'.\n\nFor Details:\n\nhttp://www.priory.com/dbt.htm\n\nMay be this is what u looking for.

You are very creative!  However, I believe the 'hot' therapy for 'maniacs' is "anti-pyschotics"!

The power of belief has a very strong effect on the psyche of a human being. I used to want to be multiple personality until I started developing other personalities that seemed to hinder my daily lifestyle. I believed them into existence and I believed them out as well. Now I am fine and I can maintain a lifestyle that is very focused and effecient. Believe what you want. I also would say that  the water treatment is some of the best advice you will receive about helping with any physical, mental, or emotional symptoms.

The best type of counselling in this aituation is: Informative/ educative counselling: where one learned individual shares information of concern with another less learned individual in a given matter, allowing the informed to ask questions and verify doubts.\nSo, the basic counselling technique would be: listening and attending!

Research into treatments for trichotillomania has grown steadily over the past decade. Although no one treatment has been found to be effective for everyone, a number of treatment options have shown promise for some people with TTM. TLC will make referrals to practitioners of any of the following therapies, at no charge. \nCognitive-Behavior Therapy\nCognitive-Behavioral Therapy is a form of therapy that seeks to alter behavior by identifying the precise factors that trigger hair pulling and learning skills to interrupt and redirect responses to those triggers. Cognitive-behavioral should be performed by a psychologist trained in this method and well versed in trichotillomania-something that may be easier said than done, as there is not an abundance of psychologists with this specialty. The therapist will encourage hair pullers to develop an increased awareness of the times of day, emotional states, and other factors that promote hair pulling, as an important precursor to being able to control the behavior. Some hair pullers have had success with simple behavioral devices such as putting bandages on their fingers to interfere with pulling, keeping records of their hair pulling, or changing environmental cues that can trigger pulling. \nPharmaceutical Therapy\nA number of medications have shown promise in reducing the severity of TTM symptoms. Most of these fall under the category of selective serotonin-reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), the most commonly known of which is Prozac. The effectiveness of these drugs for hair pulling ranges considerably. A small percentage of people find these drugs to stop their hair pulling completely, while others feel no effect at all. Still other people have found the urges to pull their hair reduced somewhat, for varying periods of time. Researchers are studying the possible benefits of combining drugs with cognitive-behavioral therapy. \nSupport Groups & Sharing\nMany hair pullers have discovered that the shame of being alone and hiding the condition can make it even harder to focus on strategies to reduce pulling. Joining a support group can go a long way toward erasing the shame and making people with TTM feel "normal" again. TLC maintains a database of support groups around the country for people with TTM, and referrals are free. TLC will also assist with the formation of new support groups. Some support groups are entirely peer-run; others are run by a mental health professional. Many groups feature a "check-in" time-a time for members to report on their progress-which can help reduce pulling. \nAlternative Therapies\nThere are anecdotal reports that several alternative therapies, including hypnosis, biofeedback, dietary changes, and exercise, among others, have been found helpful by many people.

Snoezelen is a very interesting concept. It was a term developed by Ad Verheul, a Dutch scientist, in 1974 in the Netherlands. He came up with this term, which means to sniff, elicit all the senses, to doze and relax.\n\nIt’s a controlled multi-sensory stimulation room. What’s different about it from the traditional therapies of occupational, physical and speech therapy is that you let the child explore the environment through different senses. When you look at the room you’ll see that there’s a lot of color, sound and smell. We’re hoping that through auditory, visual kinesthetic, and olfactory stimulation the child will develop and their function will improve at different levels. So we’re eliciting stimulation through the senses.\n\n There are various types of equipment that are found to elicit stimulation such as a bubble tube, a ball pit, optic colored cables, a color talking wall, a leaf chair, and a projection wheel with different themes and colors that project onto a wall. There is also music and aromatherapy in the room\n\nThe colors are supposed to elicit visual stimulation. Different colors are for different temperaments and moods. Red brings you more excitement than a blue or green hue. There has been a lot of research done on color therapy; they are a visual stimulation.\n\nIn regards to the auditory, we have music that’s called Snoezelen music. It’s a very quiet repetitive type of music with no words, which is a very relaxing. It is wave-like music. The kinesthetic and vibratory stimulation is present with the bubble tube. When the child holds on to this he or she will feel the bubbles going through the tube. We also have cables in there that change color and have sensation

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)\n\nBrief meaning:If your child has been diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, you may be wondering what form of treatment to use. Usually, medication and/or behavior management are recommended. Neither medication alone nor behavior management alone gives consistent long-term results. Medication alone does not help children with ADHD a great deal in their social and academic functioning. Behavioral therapy may be needed to tackle ADHD-related behavior problems. Behavior therapy alone often doesn't give the benefits as when used with medication. This may be partly because effective behavior-management programs are difficult to implement. They require ongoing efforts and cooperation over long periods of time by the children, parents, and teachers if they are to work. But when combined, medication and behavior management offer the greatest chance for long-term successful management of behavior.

Like everyone is saying, therapists are not there to judge. \n\nOnly by being honest with your therapist can they really help you, otherwise therapy is pretty much a waste of time. And this is exactly the kind of problem they are there to help you solve.\n\nInpatient hospitalization seems to help in limited ways. It keeps you safe by putting you in a safe place, also it takes you away (briefly) from everyday stressors. Overall, I don't think it's much of a long term solution though. I don't know anyone who went to the hospital and came out all better. There needs to be follow up treatment. \n\nSometimes going inpatient is the best idea, it will get you started or adjusted on medication. If that is something you need that is not being addressed, the hospital is one way to make something happen with that. If you feel like you are truly a danger to yourself or someone else, it is probably the best place to be.\n\nBut if you are trying to solve a more long term problem with a more long term solution, I recommend seeing if you can get into an outpatient program called Partial Hospitalization. It is intensive treatment day program. The one I went to had a doctor there at all times and was very focused on A) getting each person stabilized and B) teaching coping skills and such. This is the kind of thing you can carry with you long after the program ends...these life skills. The program I went to was based on something called DBT. (for more info check out www.dbtselfhelp.com). \n\nThe point of the program was to keep people from needing to go to the hospital or helping them transition out of it. From listening to what most people in the program had to say, I found that almost all found the partial program significantly more helpful than being inpatient. \n\nThe Partial program is a somewhat new concept and I don't think it is offered everywhere (but hopefully, eventually it will be.) It was the best thing that ever happened to me, in 20 + years of trying to get help. If there is not one near you (or even if there is), ask about DBT groups. They can really change your life in a lot of ways. \n\nThis is a tough road, but there is a light at the end. While trapped in the midst of major depression, it does not feel that way. But I promise you, there is hope even though you can't feel it right now. I speak from many years of painful experience and suffering and trying to make things right.

Haim Ginott was a clinical psychologist, child therapist, parent educator, and author whose work has had a substantial impact on the way adults relate to children. He began his career as an elementary school teacher in Israel in 1947 before immigrating to the United States. There he attended Columbia University in New York City, earning a doctoral degree in clinical psychology in 1952.\n\nGinott's work with troubled children at the Jacksonville, Florida, Guidance Clinic helped him refine his unique combination of compassion and boundary setting. While many of his contemporaries favored one or the other, Ginott wove the two into a seamless whole that showed respect for children's feelings while setting limits on their behavior. Ginott said that he was strict with unacceptable behavior but permissive with feelings. His aim was to help parents socialize their children while simultaneously cultivating their emotional well being. Ginott's books, Between Parent and Child, Between Parent and Teenager, and Teacher and Child, were popular for many years and were translated into thirty languages. Rather than accuse, cajole, or correct parents in his parenting groups, he showed compassion for their struggle even as he encouraged them to listen with understanding and empathy to their children. His method for working with parents is described by Arthur R. Orgel (1980).\nSponsors\n\nAt the heart of Ginott's method is the recognition that denying feelings makes them more intense and confused. By contrast, the acknowledgment of feelings allows people to heal and consequently become better problem solvers. For example, Ginott wrote of a twelve-year-old girl who was tense and tearful when her cousin left after spending the summer with her. Ginott recommended that parents acknowledge their children's feelings in situations like this with responses such as "You miss her already" and "The house must seem kind of empty to you without Susie around."\n\nGinott's continuing impact is underscored in the influential book by John Gottman on raising emotionally intelligent children: "Ginott's theories had never been proven using empirically sound, scientific methods. But …I can provide the first quantifiable evidence to suggest that Ginott's ideas were essentially correct. Empathy not only matters; it is the foundation of effective parenting" (p. 35). Following Ginott's example, Gottman encourages parents to be "emotion coaches" rather than being dismissive, disapproving, or laissez-faire.\n\nWhile Ginott's influence is evident in works by Gottman and also by his students Adele Faber and Elaine Mazlish, his greatest contribution and continuing legacy may be teaching the communication skills that help parents relate to their children in a caring and understanding way without diminishing parental authority.\nBibliography\n\nGottman, John M.
