Sibling Therapy: The Ghosts from Childhood that Haunt Your Clients’ Love and Work by Karen Gail Lewis, PhD.

No matter how close or distant siblings are today, they are part of each other. As adults, they actually are part of two sibling sets. The original siblings are the ones who grew up together and have changed and aged together. The second set is the creation of their childhood perceptions, feelings, hurts, and resentments, as well as idealizations about the original siblings. These siblings, like ghosts, are not visible; they never age. While these siblings mostly lie dormant, when they jump into action, they distort how adults relate to their siblings now.

The “sibling ghosts” have four components—frozen images, crystallized roles, unhealthy loyalty, and sibling transference—each of which has a unique effect on one’s adult life, and all of which may be transferred onto important adults in their lives, including spouses and lovers, people at work, and friends. For therapists of all theoretical orientations, Sibling Therapy: The Ghosts from Childhood that Haunt Your Clients’ Love and Work is the first book that provides a theoretical framework for working with adult siblings and will be helpful in understanding the influences of clients’ ghosts, especially when dealing with intractable problems. The ideas and the numerous clinical examples presented here are applicable for family therapists, social workers, psychologists, psychiatrists, counselors, pastoral counselors, and anyone working in a therapeutic position, as well as masters and doctoral students in these fields.

And now—on the eve of the 50-year anniversary of this rescue from horrific childhood of abuse and into the safety of the foster care system—he reflects on the battles he’s fighting in his own heart.

Addiction, Attachment, Trauma and Recovery: The Power of Connection by Oliver J. Morgan, winner of the 2020 Independent Press Award in Addiction and Recovery

A fresh take on addiction and long-lasting recovery that bridges the divide between conventional models and folds current thinking into a nested social ecology framework that opens up hidden causes of addiction. In this groundbreaking look at addiction and recovery, addiction scholar and veteran counselor Dr. Oliver Morgan shows that addiction is no longer just about neurons or genes, broken brain functioning, or faulty choices. All of these elements are nested within a person, who is likewise nested within a social ecology of interpersonal connections (families, neighborhoods, societies) and fragmented social systems that are stressed and under threat. When broken or stressed, these ecologies create a vacuum, a “hole in the heart” that demands attention. Addiction is often the result, and true recovery cannot occur without healing our broken and lost connections.

But, while on vacation, she is badly injured during a bizarre encounter with menacing strangers. Awakening, she finds herself held captive aboard the alien battleship RIBUS 7. Convinced at first that she is the victim of an elaborate hoax, the nightmare soon becomes all too real.

Struggling against her growing attraction to her captor, the Iceanean Overlord and commander of RIBUS 7, Korba (an ebony-clad god of war, a cunning predator, and a finely honed killer), Chelan clings to her Earthly values like a shield. But in a culture where the men and women pursue the pleasures of the flesh with a passion and a skill equal to that of the kill, Chelan finds herself awash in a sea of temptation at every turn. Korba himself yearns for her, but their love is forbidden by all that governs his culture. To claim her as his own is to risk all … but it’s a risk he hungers to take.
