Today, the practices are increasing in terms of the number of people engaging in this often-baffling behavior. By the use of accessible language, rich descriptions of concepts, and realistic case examples, \u003ci\u003eCutting and Self Harm\u003c\/i\u003e seeks to demystify these behaviors that afflict self-injuring individuals and negatively impact their family members and friends. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAuthor Chris Simpson, PhD, has written and presented on the subject of self-harm since 2001. He begins the book by answering the question \"What is cutting and self-harm and how does it occur?\" and by explaining important terms and concepts related to the behavior. He then covers current controversies about self-harming behaviors and addresses frequently confusing topics, such as the contributing factors to self-injury, psychopharmacological treatment of the behavior, and the use of group therapeutic approaches in treatment facilities. The final section of the book presents additional resources for those impacted by self-injury.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Chris Simpson Ph D.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 161069872X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781610698726\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Greenwood\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/29\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.20w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2016","brand":"Chris Simpson Ph D.","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43989380235519,"sku":"9781610698726","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_532a0580-bf6e-4e6f-b34d-f8db80fe0c84.jpg?v=1683299162","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/cutting-and-self-harm-chris-simpson-9781610698726","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
