Abstract:

SYNOPSIS This thesis has two objectives: ( i ) to place on record work on the therapeutic community published between 1976 and 1994; ( i i ) to substantiate the argument that therapeutic community approaches offer a well defined and empirically established (but perhaps neglected) method of treatment in the mental health and related fields. In respect of the first, the printed work comprises four book chapters, seven papers from the professional literature and fifteen signed editorials from the International Journal of Therapeutic Communities. Some hitherto unpublished pieces have been added in

Abstract:

This research project began from an interest in 'what happened' at a residential psychiatric disability support service (therapeutic community) where I had previously worked as a social worker, or, as it was termed in the program, support worker. Residents used the program in various ways, to get back on track with their lives, and workers aimed to support them in that process. My approach to data collection was, as for many social work researchers, qualitative. As my work on the project developed over time, I was consistently informed and re-informed not only by ideas arising from my engage

Abstract:

Quantitative research based on diagnostic classification has been limited in developing an understanding of ADHD and its related behaviour among children who have experienced Developmental Trauma, including neglect and abuse. Clinical practice may not attend sufficiently to the emotional experiences of these children with a diagnosis of ADHD, due to the dominance of biomedical discourse. This study utilised discourse analysis to examine discourses, of Therapeutic Community staff, about ADHD and its related behaviour among looked after children who have had experiences of Developmental Trauma.

Breathing Space is a residential centre offering therapeutic intervention for up to twelve men who engage in domestic violence. This research was a qualitative programme evaluation of the processes used within the Breathing Space therapeutic community. Observations and interviews were conducted on ten residents and eight staff. Positive findings revealed that both residents and staff perceived significant benefits from attending Breathing Space. Neither staff nor residents uniformly believed that treatment would reduce violence. Two of the most beneficial factors reported by residents were the

This thesis considers the role of individual members and groups of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) in the development of therapeutic communities and other types of therapy that consider social environments.

The study also provides a contextual history of therapeutic environments, particularly those involving Quakers.

Abstract:

Wilderness therapy is increasingly seen as a viable treatment alternative for troubled youth, yet there is a noticeable dearth of research comparing the effectiveness of wilderness therapy with more traditional treatment programs. To help address this research need, this study conducted an exploratory analysis of the therapeutic benefits of a wilderness therapy program, Wilderness Quest (WQ), compared to a therapeutic community program, Life-Line (LL). The WQ and LL programs both are based on a 12- step recovery philosophy and emphasize the integral role of the family in adolescent treatment.

Abstract:

Therapeutic communities provide structure, support and a safe living environment for individuals attempting to recover from addiction. Using peer influence, counseling, education, self-help groups, and case management, they assist residents in conforming to social norms and developing effective coping mechanisms while remaining drug-free. Prior studies have consistently demonstrated the effectiveness of these programs. But, why are they effective for some and not others?

Abstract:

For many years it has been asserted that those with personality disorder were "untreatable" however in more recent times this has been challenged and the therapeutic community has come to be seen as the most effective model of treatment. This thesis investigates the impact of treatment in a prison therapeutic community on personality disordered offenders. The participating samples were therapeutic community residents (N=58) and a comparison group from mainstream prison (N=14).

The idea that the Church should be, in some way, a therapeutic community has gained increasing prominence in recent years. Usually, the general sense seems to be that of health-engendering community.

Severe acute malnutrition (SAM) affects approximately 13 million children under-five and is associated with over 1.5 million preventable child deaths each year.

However, an exclusive inpatient approach does not consider the many barriers to accessing treatment that exist for poor people in the developing world.

Abstract:

One of the main diagnostic criteria of Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is an absence of empathy. The concept of empathy does not feature greatly in the literature of the British Psychoanalytic Object Relations Schools. However, the work of both Klein and Bion suggests that there is a normal development of empathy: from ‘part-object’ to ‘whole-object’ relationship. Given this, the development of empathy should be central to the treatment of those with BPD. The communal structure of the Therapeutic Community (TC) would appear to offer an ideal environment in which to foster the development
