Therapists intuitively know that the families, partnerships, and individuals they treat have strengths, but may not know how to identify or utilize them. This edited collection aims to help therapists understand and apply concepts of systemic resilience in clinical practice, supporting them in conceptualizing cases, treatment planning, and developing supportive therapeutic relationships. Christie Eppler, PhD, brings together a collection of voices to provide comprehensive guidance on what systemic resilience is and how therapists can enhance the lives and relationships of their clients. Based on contemporary training standards, this text emphasizes practice-based applications and focuses on diversity, equity, and inclusion. Chapters address how to foster resilience in clinical treatment with individual and relational clients, supervisees, and in the therapist’s own life. With case studies, clinical activities, interventions, and reflective questions throughout, this approachable text will help therapists empower their clients. This book demonstrates to practicing and established therapists how connections, community involvement, shared visions and a sense of purpose, and healthy relationships can promote growth, healing, and transformation. This is essential reading for students and professionals in counseling, clinical social work, and marriage and family therapy.

How might performance serve as a means for facing ubiquitous trauma and pain, in humans and ecologies? While reflecting on her multidisciplinary work Systems of Pain/Networks of Resilience, artist Meghan Moe Beitiks considers bodies of knowledge in Trauma Theory, Intersectional Feminist Philosophy, Ecology, Disability Studies, New Materialism, Object-Oriented Ontology, Gender Studies, Artistic Research, Psychology, Performance Studies, Social Justice, Performance Philosophy, Performance Art, and a series of first-person interviews in an attempt to answer that question. Beitiks brings us through the first-person process of making the work and the real-life, embodied encounters with the theories explored within it as an expansion of the work itself. Facing down difficult issues like trauma, discrimination, and the vulnerability of the body, Beitiks looks to commonalities across species and disciplines as means of developing resilience and cultivating communities. Rather than paint a picture of glorious potential utopias, Beitiks takes a hard look at herself as an embodiment of the values explored in the work, and stays with the difficult, sucky, troubling, work to be done. Performing Resilience for Systemic Pain is a vulnerable book about the quiet presence and hard looking needed to shift systems away from their oppressive, destructive realities.

Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a rare but impactful metabolic condition that profoundly affects those diagnosed, as well as their families and support systems. Living with PKU presents both medical and psychological challenges, often leading to feelings of isolation, stress, and anxiety about the future. Managing the lifelong dietary restrictions and the uncertainties that come with a genetic disorder can be overwhelming, especially when compounded by societal pressures, stigma, and the complexities of medical care. This book, Psychological Support by Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Phenylketonuria (PKU), aims to bridge the gap between the medical management of PKU and the psychological support that is crucial for living a fulfilling life with the condition. While medical treatment focuses on controlling phenylalanine levels, this book addresses the emotional, psychological, and cognitive challenges that often go unspoken but deeply affect quality of life. Drawing on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)—a proven approach to managing various psychological issues—this book provides tools, strategies, and insights specifically tailored to individuals with PKU. It is designed to help patients, caregivers, and healthcare professionals navigate the psychological impact of PKU, offering ways to manage stress, anxiety, trauma, and the myriad of emotional challenges that arise from living with a chronic genetic condition. We start by exploring the biology of PKU and providing foundational knowledge on genetics, epigenetics, and hereditary diseases. From there, the focus shifts to the psychological aspects, diving deep into how trauma, anxiety, and stress can influence the mental well-being of those with PKU. The latter sections of the book are dedicated to practical applications of CBT, offering a range of tools and techniques designed to empower individuals in managing their emotions, improving mental health, and maintaining a balanced, healthy outlook on life. It is my hope that this book will provide comfort, understanding, and practical support to those living with PKU. By integrating the science of genetics with the art of psychological therapy, we can begin to build a more holistic approach to care—one that nurtures both body and mind. I sincerely hope this book becomes a valuable resource for individuals and families affected by PKU, as well as for healthcare providers seeking to offer more comprehensive support to their patients.

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a chronic, life-threatening genetic disorder that impacts not only the respiratory and digestive systems but also an individual's psychological well-being. The continuous battle with illness, medical treatments, and the uncertainty of the future can leave profound emotional and mental imprints on patients and their families. In recent years, the importance of psychological support for those affected by CF has come to light, and among the various therapeutic approaches, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) stands out as an effective method for managing the psychological toll of chronic illness. This book, Psychological Support by Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Cystic Fibrosis, is designed to serve as a comprehensive guide for understanding the psychological challenges faced by CF patients and their families. It aims to highlight how CBT can provide effective tools to help them navigate these difficulties, from managing the trauma of diagnosis to coping with the ongoing physical and emotional pain associated with the disorder. The journey of living with a genetic illness like cystic fibrosis is often filled with uncertainty, fear, and emotional strain. For patients, the impact of the disease goes beyond the physical symptoms—it affects their identity, independence, relationships, and self-worth. Families, too, must cope with the overwhelming stress of caregiving, fear of the future, and the emotional exhaustion that comes with chronic illness. In this book, I combine essential knowledge about the biology, genetics, and medical challenges of CF with an introduction to CBT techniques that can be personalized to address these psychological struggles. I delve into the science behind cystic fibrosis and the complexities of genetic mutations that drive the condition. I also explore the impact of hereditary diseases and offer insights into how behavioral genetics and epigenetics play a role in CF and similar conditions. More than just a theoretical discussion, this book offers actionable tools and strategies based on CBT principles to help CF patients and their families manage anxiety, depression, chronic pain, and the everyday emotional hurdles they encounter. From practical tips on pain management to learning how to live a fulfilling life despite the challenges, this book is meant to be a practical guide for both mental health professionals and those directly affected by CF. I hope that this book can offer not only information but also hope and empowerment for individuals and families facing cystic fibrosis. By integrating psychological support into the treatment of CF, it is possible to improve the quality of life for everyone touched by this difficult journey.

This work is also intended as a resource for clinicians and therapists seeking to broaden their understanding of genetic conditions in mental health treatment. It provides practical guidance on using CBT techniques in the context of a hereditary disease, with a focus on the unique psychological needs of individuals managing hyperoxaluria.

Werdnig-Hoffmann disease, a severe form of spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), presents not only profound physical challenges but also significant psychological and emotional burdens for those diagnosed and their families. This book, Psychological Support by Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Werdnig-Hoffmann Disease, seeks to address these psychological dimensions by offering a comprehensive framework for understanding the emotional toll of the disease and providing evidence-based therapeutic strategies to improve quality of life. The journey through a life with Werdnig-Hoffmann disease involves not only managing a progressive and often debilitating physical condition but also navigating the intricate psychological landscape that comes with it. Individuals with this disease, their caregivers, and healthcare providers are often faced with feelings of grief, helplessness, anxiety, and frustration. Coping with such emotions is essential for enhancing the quality of life and ensuring better overall well-being. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) has proven to be an effective tool in managing emotional difficulties in chronic illness. CBT focuses on understanding the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers practical tools to alter negative thought patterns, improve emotional regulation, and promote healthier coping strategies. The therapy is particularly beneficial in the context of genetic disorders like Werdnig-Hoffmann disease, where individuals may face unique challenges such as identity struggles, anxiety about genetic transmission, and the emotional impact of medical decisions. This book is intended to provide a solid foundation for clinicians, caregivers, and patients themselves to explore the intersection of mental health and genetic disease. It combines an in-depth understanding of Werdnig-Hoffmann disease with insights into genetics, epigenetics, and hereditary conditions. Through this, I aim to offer not just a therapeutic guide but a pathway to emotional resilience in the face of genetic illness. In addition to providing theoretical and clinical perspectives, this work delves into the application of CBT, addressing common issues faced by patients such as chronic pain, societal pressures, feelings of isolation, and the emotional toll on caregivers. By focusing on practical tools and therapeutic strategies, I hope to empower those affected by Werdnig-Hoffmann disease to manage their emotions, foster resilience, and improve their mental health alongside physical treatment. The integration of personalized therapeutic approaches is emphasized throughout the book, as each individual’s experience with this disease is unique. It is my belief that through this personalized care and the application of CBT techniques, individuals can better navigate the emotional challenges of Werdnig-Hoffmann disease, ultimately leading to improved psychological well-being and quality of life. I would like to dedicate this book to the individuals and families affected by Werdnig-Hoffmann disease and other similar conditions. Your courage, perseverance, and resilience in the face of adversity are the inspiration behind this work. It is my hope that this book serves as a supportive guide in your journey, helping to alleviate some of the emotional burdens and fostering a deeper sense of peace and empowerment.
