Drawing together motivational theory, research-based evidence and guidance for best practice, this book presents innovative models for goal-setting and goal pursuit in therapy with children. Setting goals not only allows children, and their families, to engage with the overall therapeutic process, but it also provides an essential motivational element throughout the entire therapeutic process. The editors and contributors give practical advice on empathically collaborating with the child and his or her family, to clearly identify achievable goals that can be wholeheartedly pursued. Key information on Self-Determination Theory (SDT) is accessibly explained, which will aid professional understanding of the relationship between motivation, goal-setting, and strong therapeutic practice. The approaches in this book can be used by a wide range of professionals, including those who specialise in working with children with physical disabilities, learning disabilities, and emotional and behavioural difficulties. The combination of theory, research and practical advice makes this book an essential resource for professionals working therapeutically with children, including occupational therapists, speech and language therapists, physiotherapists, counsellors, psychologists, social workers, arts therapists and psychotherapists.

How To Lose Body Fat on 3000+ Calories a Day for Both Men and Women: Eat Clean Get Lean (Weight Loss Motivation – Lose Body Fat)
HERE WE GO AGAIN!
Who in here as ever tried whatever the brand new latest and greatest diet fad was that swept the world by storm (for 15 minutes or so)?
Come on…
The answer is more than likely EVERYONE right?
Well actually that is pretty awesome!
Why is that so awesome?
It is because those people who have spent the most time jumping on and off bandwagons are actually closer than they think to discovering xanadu!
Well maybe not xanadu! But I think you get where I am going with this???
Hopefully…
If not then trust me, I am always going somewhere with a thought. It may take a while to reach its destination but it does eventually get there. You may just have to stick around long enough to see it hit its landmark.
So if you have never heard of me before than you must know that my books are going to be slightly different than the norm. This is because I am an actual real life human being who writes from personal experience and from the soul.
Sometimes there are people who absolutely hate this!
Oh well, you cannot please everyone. When you try and please everyone you end up pleasing no one.
So did you happen to read the title?
Are you one of those closed minded people who believes that it is not possible to lose body fat while eating what the general public views to be a “high calorie” diet?
Because in my world 3,000 calories is not anywhere close to high calorie!
The actual number of calories do not matter to be honest. I just used 3,000 as a reference point mainly to grab the attention of people as they are passing by scrolling through all of the myriads of cookie cutter books on the topic of weight loss or body fat loss.
I LIVE IN THE REAL WORLD.
I understand all types of metabolisms and how to manipulate (I hate using that word but I did anyways) them in any direction that a person is aiming for.
I know how to add on body fat on both low and high calories – I know how to take off body fat and keep it off as well – I know how to add on muscle and strip off muscle – There are no real secrets to any of these things it just takes lots of experience and application in real world scenarios.
My only mission being involved in this business is to help a small group of individuals become their own nutritionist at some point in their lives. That is my number 1 goal. This is easier said than done in todays world were we are constantly being spoon fed nonsense from health and fitness marketers who are only out to make a buck (s) (And lots of them;)
HAVE YOU EVER READ A DESCRIPTION LIKE THIS?
No!
And you will never read a book like this or like any of my other books that I have written as well.
The things that I say about nutrition can only be said by those who have put in the actual time and effort and applied themselves what they tell others to apply. People who have gone through the good, the bad, and the ugly, and make it out on the other side alive and all in one piece, have filtered out all of the hogwash that gets shat out of the mainstream today.
That is you!
You are this close (I am holding my finger one inch from my thumb!) filtering out all of the diet jargon and nonsense and on the pathway to becoming your very own nutritionist!
You may not even know it, but I know it. I truly believe that everyone who has the desire to find optimum health can become their own nutritionist at some point. Good thing that I only have so many characters in this description or I will not ever shut up. So I will use these last few characters to welcome all of you new comers into my world, and all of the rest of you, you already kind of know what is coming right?
