Postvention Standards Manual
A Guide for a School's Response in the Aftermath of Sudden Death, Fourth
Edition
This manual has been prepared for educators,
social workers, school psychologists, counselors, and other professionals
who work with children and adolescents in the aftermath of tragedies. It is
intended to guide schools and communities in developing their own
postvention (services offered in an aftermath of a suicide or tragedy)
policies and procedures. This guide does not replace professional advice
and should not be the only source of guidelines for a specific situation, as
each crisis will be different. Appropriately trained professionals should
be consulted for discussion and evaluation of particular issues or cases.
Living with Depression:

chances of helping your adolescent overcome the depression.

the interest in starting a group for suicide survivors. We hope to provide
you with a guide and basic outline for providing services to those isolated
by their loss.

a supplement to the CBT manual and assumes the reader has mastered the

of the types of anxiety disorders, information about the possible causes,
types of treatment available, as well as suggestions that may help your

Understanding and Coping with Bipolar Illness
A Survival Manual for Families
We have learned from many families that it can be
extremely difficult to live with a family member who is experiencing a mood
disorder like Bipolar Disorder. We have come to know that similarly
when a family has someone afflicted with a serious physical illness,
emotional illness affects the whole family. This manual is written for
patients and their families. The information in this manual primarily
focuses on adolescents and children, however the information is also
applicable for adults.
Teen
Handbook on Depression
We have found that educating people about
depression and suicide is one of our best tools in helping to treat
psychiatric illness and prevent suicide. This handbook has been designed to
help educate you [the teen] about your illness. We hope that the
information will help you remain hopeful and know that all difficult
situations can improve without your needing to resort to suicide or any
self-harming behavior.
Emotion Regulation, Interpersonal Effectiveness, and Distress Tolerance
Skills for Adolescents
Written for clinicians, this treatment manual is intended as a complement to
and extension of STAR-Center's cognitive therapy manual for depressed and
suicidal adolescents. It has been our experience that mood disordered
patients with difficulties in emotion regulation may make great strides in
CBT, but under duress will have an emotion storm that interferes with their
ability to utilize their cognitive therapy skills. The manual includes
guidelines and scripts for teaching teens emotion regulation, assertiveness
skills, and distress tolerance skills. Ten teen skills hand-outs are
included in perforated, pull-out format. In addition to individual therapy,
the skills are also summarized for use in groups with teens and their
caretakers.
