The Comprehensive Resource Model


Book Description

Traditional methods employed in psychotherapy have limited effectiveness when it comes to healing the psychological effects of trauma, in particular, complex trauma. While a client may seem to make significant breakthroughs in understanding their feelings and experiences on a rational level by talking with a therapist, this will make no difference to their post-traumatic symptoms if the midbrain is unable to modulate its activity in response. The Comprehensive Resource Model argues for a novel therapeutic approach, which uniquely bridges neuroscience and spirituality through a combination of somatic therapy, traditional psychotherapy, and indigenous healing concepts to provide effective relief to survivors of trauma. The Comprehensive Resource Model was developed in response to the need for a streamlined, integrative therapeutic model; one which engages a scaffolding of neurobiological resources in many brain structures simultaneously in order for clients to be fully embodied and conscious in the present moment while processing their traumatic material. All three phases of trauma therapy: resourcing, processing, and integration are done simultaneously. Demonstrating a nested model and employing brain and body-based physiological safety as the foundation of healing, chapters describe three primary categories of targeted processing: implicit and explicit survival terror, ‘Little T Truths’, and ‘Big T Truths’, all of which contribute to thorough healing of complex trauma and an expansion into higher states of consciousness and embodiment of the essential core self. This book describes the development and benefits of this pioneering new approach to trauma therapy. As such, it will be of key interest to academics, researchers and postgraduate students in the fields of psychiatry, psychotherapy, psychology and trauma studies. It will also appeal to practising therapists, psychiatrists, psychologists, psychiatric nurses, and to others involved in the treatment or management of patients with complex trauma disorders.

Readers and reviewers loved Berry and Linoff's first book, Data Mining Techniques, because the authors so clearly illustrate practical techniques with real benefits for improved marketing and sales. Mastering Data Mining takes off from there-assuming readers know the basic techniques covered in the first book, the authors focus on how to best apply these techniques to real business cases. They start with simple applications and work up to the most powerful and sophisticated examples over the course of about 20 cases. (Ralph Kimball used this same approach in his highly successful Data Warehouse Toolkit). As with their first book, Mastering Data Mining is sufficiently technical for database analysts, but is accessible to technically savvy business and marketing managers. It should also appeal to a new breed of database marketing managers.
