Self-Help
Defining Moments is for readers who have been knocked down by loss from natural disasters and the recession and who cannot afford psychotherapy. Dr. McArthur, a diplomate clinical psychologist with thirty-three years in private practice, sensitively shares defining moments from her productive form of psychotherapy and her own life. The book allows readers to acquire understanding, clarity, and coping mechanisms needed to get back up again with confidence. Examples and solutions are provided for taking care of oneself, relating to others, and parenting children. Integrity, honesty, and ethical behaviors are emphasized as a means of building depth of character, self-esteem, and making a difference in a successful life. Dr. McArthur presents effective ways to examine unresolved issues that may be causing anger, anxiety, or depression. The book also provides an example of one kind of psychodynamic psychotherapy for graduate students in clinical psychology. Students can meaningfully compare and contrast her work with other theoretical orientations, as part of determining how to approach psychotherapy.
