Book Description

LO QUE EL CÁNCER ME ENSEÑÓ COMO PACIENTE Y QUE NO APRENDÍ EN LA CARRERA DE MEDICINA Todo, absolutamente todo en esta vida, tiene un "para qué" pero no un "por qué". Yo he tenido que pasar por la experiencia de sufrir un cáncer para convertirme en mejor persona así como en una profesional más consciente. Soy médico, una ginecóloga apasionada, pero el hecho de haber sido paciente oncológica me ha enseñado lo que nunca estudié en la Facultad. Ahora entiendo lo que sienten las personas en tratamiento de quimio y radio, y también sé las ventajas que tiene enfermar siendo médico, pero sobretodo las desventajas. Quiero que este libro sirva para que estos dos mundos, el de la bata blanca y el fonendo y el de el que espera en una camilla, aparentemente separados, se entiendan mejor... Los he vivido en primera persona, por eso lo sé. Ahora solo espero seguir disfrutando de los próximos cumpleaños de mi nueva vida. Como médico y como expaciente. La Dra. Ilaria Bianchi ha querido compartir en estas páginas su historia desde que le diagnosticaron un cáncer de mama siendo ella médico. Pasar de doctora a paciente oncológica, le supuso un profundo cambio personal. El objeto de este libro pretende servir para unir dos mundos tan dispares pero tan unidos y proporcionar una cálida ayuda e inspiración a personas que están pasando por esta enfermedad, así como lanzar un mensaje lleno de esperanza y solidaridad. Una historia real, escrita en primera persona. Un testimonio único, emotivo y profundamente íntimo que te reconcilia con la enfermedad y te hace vivir de una manera más lúcida.

Book Description

“Before getting my diagnosis, I walked through life without purpose, without a reason to be. What happened in my life needed to happen, I needed to live it. I needed to pass through these painful experiences to be the woman that I am today, a better version of myself.” Adamari López, the internationally known actress, had everything—a loving family, a perfect boyfriend, and a leading role on a successful telanovela in Mexico—when three words changed her life forever: you have cancer. Suddenly, in only a few months, the world that she knew collapsed and her life was turned upside-down. In Thriving, the normally private López reveals the triumphs and trials of her life, sharing anecdotes of her childhood and her family while describing her journey through breast cancer; the sudden illness of her mother; her wedding, one of the happiest days of her life; and, later, what she considers to be the hardest blow of all: the dissolution of her marriage. However, through it all, her strength and her faith never failed, and her loving and positive spirit, along with her perpetual smile, helped her to discover a new and rewarding start in love and in life. Includes new bonus material!

Book Description

This timely practical reference addresses the lack of Spanish-language resources for mental health professionals to use with their Latino clients. Geared toward both English- and Spanish-speaking practitioners in a variety of settings, this volume is designed to minimize misunderstandings between the clinician and client, and with that the possibility of inaccurate diagnosis and/or ineffective treatment. Coverage for each topic features a discussion of cultural considerations, guidelines for evidence-based best practices, a review of available findings, a treatment plan, plus clinical tools and client handouts, homework sheets, worksheets, and other materials. Chapters span a wide range of disorders and problems over the life-course, and include reproducible resources for: Assessing for race-based trauma. Using behavioral activation and cognitive interventions to treat depression among Latinos. Treating aggression, substance use, abuse, and dependence among Latino Adults. Treating behavioral problems among Latino adolescents. Treating anxiety among Latino children. Working with Latino couples. Restoring legal competency with Latinos. The Toolkit for Counseling Spanish-Speaking Clients fills a glaring need in behavioral service delivery, offering health psychologists, social workers, clinical psychologists, neuropsychologists, and other helping professionals culturally-relevant support for working with this under served population. The materials included here are an important step toward dismantling barriers to mental health care.
