When it comes to adults with challenging behaviours, the focus is often on trying to fix or change the behaviour rather than trying to understand the person themselves. This revised manual sets out a new person-centred approach which concentrates on understanding the individual and the reasons behind their behaviours to move towards a workable resolution. Aimed at professionals working with adults with challenging behaviours, the book recognises that the behaviour itself can be unsettling even for experienced practitioners. But author Anna Eliatamby clearly explains why empathy and understanding is vital when it comes to helping people with mental health issues and challenging behaviours. The manual's approach is simple to follow, incorporating a wealth of resources to help professionals question what kind of intervention, if any, may be necessary. It also includes a methodology for examining an individual's background and personal circumstances to gain a deep understanding of why they behave the way they do and what internal or external triggers may provoke distress and other reactions. From Challenging Behaviours to Distress Factors and Reactions (2nd Edition) examines a number of topics in detail including autism, depression, collective leadership and the psychology of respect, as well as happiness and general wellbeing. This manual is a must-read for any professional who wants to take a more human approach to supporting people who may be experiencing difficulties in their lives.
