Understanding Self-Worth: A Guide to Worth-Conscious Theory and Psychotherapeutic Practice is a guide for psychotherapists confounded by the struggle of working with clients who present with a pervasive pattern of denied self-worth.
When self-worth is perceived as conditional or denied altogether, clients may become complicit in creating a lost-worth story—the story they tell that keeps them denying their own worth. The denial may include generational abusive and/or intrusive injunctions that go against their lived truth.
Psychotherapists will come away from this book with a deep understanding of the importance of attending to the degree of trauma experienced when the client’s self-worth is separated from their individual truth. Moreover, where there is worth-based trauma, the psychotherapist will learn models both for helping clients gently and honestly reestablish a worthy and true sense of self and for consciously guiding clients toward recovery of human worth as a birthright.
Dawna Daigneault, EdS, LPC, CCTP, is a writer, speaker, and professional counselor with twenty years of experience. She specializes in serving clients with self-worth challenges that complicate client trauma. Chris Brown, MS, PhD, is professor emerita in the Psychology and Counseling Department at the University of Missouri–Kansas City. She is a licensed psychologist with more than forty years of experience providing psychotherapy to culturally diverse populations.
