Fostering Resilience for Loss and Irrelevance

Autor Eric A. Kreuter
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 11 dec 2012
​​​​​The compensating construct of resiliency, itself, has not been compared to the problem of loss of relevancy. Therefore, there is an open corridor for the enlightened therapist, career coach, or mentor to appropriately guide a troubled person with targeted challenges to transform themselves into a newly thriving being. This book explores the topic in detail with references to the literature where prior theory can be appliedto advance this topic further. Anecdotal evidence supporting the authors’perspective is presented, including several brief case studies ofindividuals who have thrived following cessation of their prior careers. ​

Fostering Resilience for Loss and Irrelevance
Eric A. Kreuter
Praise for Fostering Resilience for Loss and Irrelevance:
The author has written a sensitive and erudite interpretation of the battle between resilience and irrelevance in the diamonic tradition of the greats in Humanistic Psychology, such as Rollo May, Erick Fromm, and Victor Frankl. Well done.
Eugene Taylor, PhD, author of The Mystery of Personality: A Psychodynamic History (Springer, 2009).
My life is not what I expected it to be.
The world makes no sense to me.
Who am I? Does it matter?
For many individuals, the cumulative impact of challenges, disappointments, and adversities takes an existential toll in the forms of depression, anxiety, or feelings of failure. Fostering Resilience for Loss and Irrelevance adds a new dimension to the literatures dealing with resilience and loss by focusing not only on timeless situations such as loss of a loved one, but also such contemporary phenomena such as rapid technological changes and widespread economic uncertainty. Drawing on these contexts, the author explains different manifestations of loss of resilience, and how human adaptability can be enhanced through clinical, philosophical, and creative means. Included in the coverage:
  • Loss of relevance: the role of societal pressure.
  • Influences on the construct of meaning.
  • Relevance and resilience: a case study.
  • Rehabilitating the psyche after loss of relevance.
  • Expectations versus reality: a humanistic and practical approach.
  • Case examples of building resilience through writing.
 For psychotherapists, schools and institutes of psychology, career coaches, and human resource managers as well as individuals interested in self-exploration, Fostering Resilience for Loss and Irrelevance offers powerful steps toward fostering this necessary quality and can be applied readily tomost age brackets.
