DOWNLOAD EBOOKInfant and Early Childhood Mental Health: Core Concepts and Clinical Practice is a groundbreaking book that provides an overview of the field from both theoretical and clinical viewpoints. The editors and chapter authors -- some of the field's foremost researchers and teachers -- describe from their diverse perspectives key concepts fundamental to infant-parent and early childhood mental health work. The complexity of this emerging field demands an interdisciplinary approach, and the book provides a clear, comprehensive, and coherent text with an abundance of clinical applications to increase understanding and help the reader to integrate the concepts into clinical practice. Offering both cutting-edge coverage and a format that facilitates learning, the book boasts the following features and content: A focus on helping working professionals expand their specialization skills and knowledge and on offering core competency training for those entering the field, which reflects the Infant-Parent Mental Health Postgraduate Certificate Program (IPMHPCP) and Fellowship in Napa, CA that was the genesis of the book. Chapters written by a diverse group of authors with vastly different training, expertise, and clinical experience, underscoring the book's interdisciplinary approach. In addition, terms such as clinician, therapist, provider, professional, and teacher are intentionally used interchangeably to describe and unify the field. Explication and analysis of a variety of therapeutic models, including Perry's Neurosequential Model of Therapeutics; Brazelton's neurodevelopmental and relational Touchpoints; attachment theory; the Neurorelational Framework; Mindsight; and Downing's Video Intervention Therapy. An entire chapter devoted to diagnostic schemas for children ages 0--5, which highlights the Diagnostic Classification of Mental Health Disorders of Infancy and Early Childhood: Revised (DC:0-3R). With the release of DSM-5, this chapter provides a prototypical crosswalk between DC:0-3R and ICD codes. A discussion of the difference between evidence-based treatments and evidence-based practices in the field, along with valuable information on randomized controlled trials, a research standard that, while often not feasible or ethically permissible in infant mental health work, remains a standard applied to the field. Key points and references at the end of each chapter, and generous use of figures, tables, and other resources to enhance learning. The volume editors and authors are passionate about the pressing need for further research and the acquisition and application of new knowledge to support the health and well-being of individuals, families, and communities. Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health: Core Concepts and Clinical Practice should find a receptive audience for this critically important message.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK"This series of essays describes the various culturally based methods utilized by a number of Indigenous communities in North and South America and South Africa to recognize the knowledge and skills gained by individuals in their life's journey through both formal and informal educational settings. Portfolios are used as a vehicle to engage learners in an introspective process which, in Indigenous settings, enables them to value culture and identity, understand the impact and pervasiveness of colonialism, and become aware of their knowledge and skills in a more holistic context. For many learners, Indigenous Recognition of Prior Learning is a transformative process, which ultimately empowers them to identify a vision and pathway for changing their world." -Karihwakeron Thompson, chair, board of directors, International Indigenous RPL Collective Karihwakeron Thompson is from the bear clan family of the Mohawk Nation at Wahta Mohawk Territory and serves as the chair of the International Indigenous Recognition of Prior Learning Collective (IIRPLC). Karihwakeron values his experiences with Indigenous organizations and Indigenous controlled educational institutions and continues to work with initiatives which utilize Indigenous knowledge and support the revitalization of Indigenous languages. Paul Zakos has been actively involved in adult education for over four decades in both mainstream and Indigenous settings. He is a founding member of the Canadian Association for Prior Learning Assessment and the International Indigenous RPL Collective. He has implemented RPL and adult friendly practices across Canada, USA, Chile, South Africa, and Ecuador working closely with colleagues to ensure educational policies and programs respond to community needs and the life circumstances and cultural teachings of Indigenous peoples.
