[8], 239, [1] pages. Boxes. Includes Foreword by Senator Bob Dole; Introduction; Resources; Index; About the Authors; and Acknowledgments. Chapters include Reactions to War; Strengthening Your Mind and Body; Coping Strategies; Grief and Loss; Changed Views of Self, Others, and the World; Returning to Civilian Life; and Restoring Family Roles and Relationships. Courage After Fire is an indispensable guide for troops returning from war. The book invites partners and family members to be a part of their veterans' healing process, which makes it all the more effective. Keith Armstrong directs the San Francisco Veterans Administration's (SFVA) Family Therapy Program, the social workers at the SFVA mental health service and is also a member of the SFVA's PTSD Clinical Team. In addition, he consults to the University of California, San Francisco's Intensive Family Therapy program. In 1989 he was a founding member of the PTSD program at the SFVA. For the last 20 years Mr. Armstrong has directed the Couples and Family Program at the SFVA. He is a certified supervisor in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy, which is an evidence-based treatment based on attachment and system theory. He treats couples and families with this approach at the SFVA, many of whom have been significantly impacted by war related trauma. In his role as director of Couples and Family Therapy he has taught and supervised hundreds of mental health trainees and staff. In 2013 Mr. Armstrong won the national VA Social Worker of the year award. The bravery displayed by our soldiers at war is commonly recognized. However, often forgotten is the courage required by veterans when they return home and suddenly face reintegration into their families, workplaces, and communities. Authored by three mental health professionals with many years of experience counseling veterans, Courage After Fire provides strategies and techniques for this challenging journey home. Courage After Fire offers soldiers and their families a comprehensive guide to dealing with the all-too-common repercussions of combat duty, including post traumatic stress symptoms, anxiety, depression, and substance abuse. It details state-of-the-art treatments for these difficulties and outlines specific ways to improve couple and family relationships. It also offers tips on areas such as rejoining the workforce and reconnecting with children. "A crucial tool for the men and women who have been serving our country so VALIANTLY during these past years." -Senator Bob Dole, from the foreword "This extraordinary work will help the men and women returning from Iraq and Afghanistan find the COURAGE to rebuild their lives and be successful." -Honorable Anthony J. Principi, Former Secretary of Veterans Affairs.…
