  • The Psychosocial Impact of Environmental and Natural DisastersGo to chapter: The Psychosocial Impact of Environmental and Natural Disasters

    The Psychosocial Impact of Environmental and Natural Disasters

    Chapter

    This chapter discusses the psychosocial influences of environmental and natural disasters on individuals and communities. Environmental and natural disasters are envirobiopsychosocial by nature. Many times there are contributing factors involving substantial interaction effects between the person and the environment with which he or she lives. Thus, it is of paramount importance for mental health professionals to recognize that disaster survivors do in fact have some degree of control and responsibility over their internal and external environment for healing traumatic experiences. The chapter addresses commonly occurring environmental and natural disasters and offers disaster mental health counselor’s important issues for consideration based on the typology of each disaster. Four major events are discussed: earthquakes, floods, hurricanes, and tornadoes. Mental health counselors may best serve clients involved in environmental and natural disasters by being culturally attuned.

  • Attitudes Toward Disability by Special Interests and Occupational GroupsGo to chapter: Attitudes Toward Disability by Special Interests and Occupational Groups

    Attitudes Toward Disability by Special Interests and Occupational Groups

    Chapter

    This chapter explores the impact that societal attitudes can have on persons with disabilities, both psychologically and socially. Affect, perceived self- esteem, and self- concept are largely influenced not only internally by our own thoughts and actions but also by input from our environment regarding how we perceive what others think of us and how we are treated by others. It focuses generally on empirical and conceptual studies pertaining to the views or perspectives of specific occupational and special interest groups. Stubbins (1991) advised the importance for rehabilitation psychologists and other counseling professionals to gain an understanding of or insight into the motivations, perspectives, or paradigms with which other groups view, treat, and interact with persons with disabilities. These insights provide rehabilitation professionals with relevant others’ perspectives as to how to better understand and work with these groups to facilitate better care for clients with disabilities.

  • Social Justice, Oppression, and Disability: Counseling Those Most in NeedGo to chapter: Social Justice, Oppression, and Disability: Counseling Those Most in Need

    Social Justice, Oppression, and Disability: Counseling Those Most in Need

    Chapter

    The root causes of social injustice are in part centralized around wealth inequities, politicians and legislation favoring the wealthy, discrimination, and a Darwinian mentality (Greenwald, 2011; Marini, 2012b; Warren, 2014). This chapter explores the ramifications of social injustice in America focusing on those with disabilities. It discusses the ripple effect of poverty, oppression, and disability, and its subsequent deleterious impact for equitable treatment and opportunity. Beginning with prevalence statistics regarding poverty in general and disability specifically, the chapter segues into an exploration of the domino and vicious cycle effect of inequitable education, employment, health care, and health. The resulting psychosocial impact on minorities and those with disabilities is a reciprocal occurrence among these populations interfacing with an arguably apathetic societal and political populace. Finally, the chapter discusses a dialogue regarding the social justice counselor and strategies for counseling and advocating for this most ignored and disenfranchised population in America.

  • The Psychosocial World of the Injured WorkerGo to chapter: The Psychosocial World of the Injured Worker

    The Psychosocial World of the Injured Worker

    Chapter

    The chronically injured worker is perhaps one of the most fascinating psychosocial topics relating to disability. For the chronically injured worker, negotiating the often confusing and sometimes dehumanizing gauntlet of receiving workers’ compensation benefits (WCB) for employees fortunate enough to have coverage may quickly turn into an injured worker’s nightmare (Binder, 1992; Dodier, 1985; Fallenbaum, 2003; Gribich, McGartland, & Polgar, 1998; Willis, 1986). This chapter explores a number of topics related to the world of work, the psychological impact of disability on the disabled worker, the impact of chronic pain, systemic problems in the WCB and Social Security Administration’s (SSA) programs, key players in the gauntlet, the impact on the family of an injured worker, and the discipline of disability management (DM). It briefly explores the anatomy, theory, and assessment of chronic pain.

  • Theories of Adjustment and Adaptation to DisabilityGo to chapter: Theories of Adjustment and Adaptation to Disability

    Theories of Adjustment and Adaptation to Disability

    Chapter

    This chapter explores perhaps the most profound and important empirical question researchers have regarding the psychological and sociological impact of the disability. The terms adjustment, adaptation, reaction, and response are used interchangeably despite the fact they may be different concepts but have overlapping definitions. The chapter first explores people born with a congenital disability, and questions whether such individuals experience any adjustment process as they have no preinjury, nondisabled experience with which to compare their situations. The remainder of the chapter explores the following seven theories of adjustment: stage models (Livneh, 1991), somatopsychology (Lewin, 1935; Trieschmann, 1988; Wright, 1983), the disability centrality model (Bishop, 2005), ecological models (Livneh & Antonak, 1997; Trieschmann, 1988; Vash & Crewe, 2004), recurrent or integrated model (Kendall & Buys, 1998), transactional model of coping (Lazarus & Folkman, 1984b), and chaos theory (Parker, Schaller, & Hansmann, 2003).

    Disaster Mental Health Counseling:
    Responding to Trauma in a Multicultural Context

    Book

    This book provides a unique resource guide with practical application for graduate students, counselor educators and supervisors, and mental health practitioners to prepare to meet the intense challenges of disaster response in the 21st century. Each section of the book defines, describes, and applies the knowledge, awareness, and skills to work in a variety of disaster mental health counseling scenarios. Considerations are given to working with a variety of different cultures and special populations. Chapters cover the medical aspects such as blast wounds, psychosocial adjustment issues such as chronic illnesses and disabilities (CIDs), career transitions and clinical interventions in disaster mental health counseling. Survivors of mass violence are at high risk for a wide range of psychiatric, neurobehavioral, and neurocognitive disorders as a result of experiencing extraordinary stressful and traumatic events. One of the chapters offers a description of the empathy fatigue construct as it relates to other professional fatigue syndromes, a recently developed tool, Global Assessment of Empathy Fatigue (GAEF). The book goes beyond the traditional counseling theories and interventions text in that it offers real-world functional assessments, explains culturally relevant interventions, and provides readers with a structured approach for healing trauma; the Personal Growth Program to Heal Trauma (PGP-HT).

    Medical Aspects of Disaster and Trauma

    Chapter

    There are significant mental health challenges for individuals who have acquired a medical–physical disability during a disaster or trauma experience. This chapter discusses some of the more major prevalent medical conditions that are acquired from exposure to person-made and natural disasters. These conditions include traumatic brain injury (TBI), blast wounds, amputation, spinal cord injury (SCI), and musculoskeletal and chronic pain conditions. The chapter describes and discusses the major health conditions that are most prevalent and have the greatest challenges for individuals who have acquired an acute medical–physical injury during extraordinary stressful and traumatic events. It highlights the fact that acquired medical-physical disability, as a direct result of trauma and disaster, has a pervasive effect on the individual, which imposes chronic and persistent mental health conditions. The medical aspects of chronic illness and disability are critical to address clinically during a disaster mental health response.

  • Implications of Social Support and Caregiving for Loved Ones With a DisabilityGo to chapter: Implications of Social Support and Caregiving for Loved Ones With a Disability

    Implications of Social Support and Caregiving for Loved Ones With a Disability

    Chapter

    Caregiving in America is perhaps one of the most misperceived, underappreciated, sometimes stressful, and otherwise rewarding acts of unconditional love. Yet, depending on which study or author you are reading, caregiving is often described at one of the two contradictory ends of the spectrum; "a curse or opportunity". This chapter delves into caregiving for loved ones with a specific type of disability, including Alzheimer’s disease, neuromuscular disorders, traumatic brain injury, psychiatric disabilities, spinal cord injury, and congenital disabilities, such as muscular dystrophy (MD) and cerebral palsy (CP). Ellenbogen, Meade, Jackson, and Barrett (2006) indicate there are significant group differences in caregiving responsibilities and demands between disability types. The chapter explores the dynamics of caregiver abuse and the often painful decision to place a loved one in a long-term care facility and also explores the significance of having social support in caring for a loved one with a disability at home.

  • Thriving Versus Succumbing to Disability: Psychosocial Factors and Positive PsychologyGo to chapter: Thriving Versus Succumbing to Disability: Psychosocial Factors and Positive Psychology

    Thriving Versus Succumbing to Disability: Psychosocial Factors and Positive Psychology

    Chapter

    Perhaps the most crucial and significant question rehabilitation researchers have sought to answer over the past several decades is: How is it that some persons with disabilities appear to excel and succeed in life beyond all expectations, whereas others seemingly succumb or yield to the limits imposed by their disabilities and society? This chapter explores the multiple factors that contribute to this dichotomy. It focuses on disability from a salutogenic orientation (focusing on the traits of healthy and successful persons) as opposed to the traditional pathological approach (focusing on the reasons and treatment of those beleaguered with ongoing mental and physical health problems) (Antonovsky, 1987). The chapter briefly explores several of the more common disabling conditions in the United States, specifically substance use disorder (SUD), depression, anxiety, and suicide. It also explores the literature behind positive psychology and also the environmental and social barriers that obstruct wellness.

    Psychosocial Aspects of Disability, 2nd Edition:
    Insider Perspectives and Strategies for Counselors

    Book

    This book deals with a number of issues and strategies for counseling people with disabilities. It allows counselors and other related health professionals to learn from the writings of 16 people with disabilities across North America. The book provides information on how other professional disciplines perceive and are trained to view disability. It discusses the medical and psychosocial aspects of caregiving in the country and highlights some of the most difficult decisions individuals and families may have to make in this process. The book is organized into four parts containing sixteen chapters. Part I explores disability from a sociological perspective. The topics covered are: the history of how people with disabilities have been viewed and treated in society; attitude formation, societal attitudes, and myths about disabilities; culturally different issues and attitudes toward disability; and attitudes toward disability by specific special interest and occupational groups. Part II focuses on the psychology of disability surrounding the individual and his or her family. The topics address: theories of adjustment to disability by the individual; family adaptation across cultures toward a loved one who is disabled; sexuality and disability; and the psychosocial world of the injured worker. Part III addresses pertinent topics concerning psychosocial issues of disability. The topics include: disability and quality of life over the life span; implications of social support and caregiving of loved ones with a disability; and thriving versus succumbing to disability: psychosocial factors and positive psychology. Part IV addresses counseling strategies and insights for working with persons with disabilities. The topics discuss: which counseling theories and techniques work best with different disability populations and why; social justice, oppression, and disability; counseling families in the community; ethical responsibilities in working with persons with disabilities and our duty to educate; and basic dos and don’ts in counseling persons with disabilities.
