The Legacy of a Stolen Nation Deftly Braided By Three Stories

Greenleaf Book Group

Through the intertwined stories of Cheyenne warrior Little Wolf, General Custer, and single mother Nancy Swiftfox, author Angie Elita Newell skillfully recounts the catastrophic events of the 1876 Battle of Little Bighorn and the subsequent struggles faced by those on the Pine Ridge Reservation in 1972 during the height of the American Indian Movement. All I See Is Violence weaves love, loss, and hard truths into a story that needs to be told—a journey through violence to bear witness to all that was taken, to honor what all of our ancestors lived through, and to heal by acknowledging the shadows to find the light. Award-winning Indigenous writer Angie Elita Newell unveils her latest literary triumph, All I See Is Violence (Greenleaf Book Group, Jan. 16, 2024), a powerful narrative braiding together the lives of a woman warrior, a ruthless general, and a single mother whose stories converge in the haunting legacy of a stolen nation. Scheduled for release on January 16, this novel promises to be an impactful exploration of history, resilience, and the enduring spirit of a people. “ All I See Is Violence brilliantly depicts the harsh realities of life for Native Americans, past and present. Angie Elita Newell is an extraordinarily gifted writer who has authored what will prove to be a timeless classic of literature.” -Dr. Robert Mallett, author of Mussolini in Ethiopia, 1919–1935 "There is no confusion between the Nancy-George connection in the present and the Little Wolf-Custer connection in the past, and Newell does a beautiful job of weaving them all together. History tells us what happens at the end of this battle, but Angie Elita Newell makes it personal, especially after witnessing Little Wolf's evolution into a warrior worthy of the storyline's heart. Very highly recommended." -Readers' Favorite "This deftly woven debut by Newell offers a deeply personal look at the largely ignored lives, experiences, and histories of Indigenous Americans.

A Dystopian Rollercoaster That Will Bend Your Mind and Breach Your Soul

Greenleaf Book Group

A Dystopian Rollercoaster that will Bend Your Mind and Breach Your Soul Debut fiction novel introduces an enigmatic heroine on a treacherous quest to befriend her enemy to save a friend. On the distant planet Aurora Saura, where your body is not your own, the good people cower in basements to avoid the scavengers plaguing the skies. Not far away, on a plateau crisp with ice, an alien overlord toils relentlessly to keep his species whole. And in the sandstone streets of Merrocha, a young girl pedals her father’s tinctures and potions, unaware of the imminent cosmic intervention that’s about to unfold. Meet our heroine, Kyjta, who’s a deft hand at administering her father’s potions, even when she shouldn’t. Her face is marked by an alien brand that sparkles like tears picking up starlight, and she’s far too busy plotting revenge to notice one very important fact. In her debut novel, The Quelling (River Grove Books, Jan. 16, 2024), author C.L. Lauder builds an immersive fantasy world in which the unlucky are branded by an alien stain, marking them for quelling—an abhorrent act in which the occupying alien race lay claim to their bodies, suppressing the host’s consciousness. When Kyjta loses an unchaperoned child who’s fallen into her care, she faces the dilemma of whether to go after her, risking life and bodily autonomy, and unaware of the alien overlord’s heinous plans for her. "The Quelling by C.L. Lauder delivers a gripping tale of survival, revenge, and unexpected alliances in a dystopian world where the consequences of one's actions are etched on their skin...Lauder's storytelling, coupled with a well-crafted world and compelling characters, creates a novel that resonates with readers long after the final page. Fans of dystopian tales will find themselves immersed in a riveting adventure that challenges the boundaries of loyalty, survival, and the enduring power of hope in the bleakest of landscapes." - Readers' Favorite “Unsettling and evocatively written, The Quelling by C.L. Lauder is an affecting work of dystopian fantasy, and an enticing first installment of a new trilogy. The planet of Aurora Saura is overrun by two parasitic invaders: the monstrous Tarrohar and the insidious, body-possessing Rhemans, whose victims are known as "The Quelled." 19-year-old Kyjta must form an alliance with the enemy - the rebel Rheman Kranik - to rescue her friend Calipsie and confront the Rheman leader head-on. With chapters alternating between the perspectives of its two compelling protagonists, The Quelling is an intricate and skillfully realized piece of imagination, unveiling a world that is unlike others in the YA genre, aided by Lauder's precise world-building, consistently eerie atmosphere, and empathetic characters.” – SPR "C. L. Lauder’s imaginative science fiction novel The Quelling centers on heroism, perseverance, and redefinitions of good and evil...Working toward a satisfying conclusion that generates interest in the next installment, the exciting science fiction novel The Quelling introduces differing beings on another planet who forego prejudice to ensure their mutual survival." - Foreword Clarion “An addictive page-turner with a compelling heroine on a thrilling journey of rebellion.” - W. Bradford Swift, eco-fantasy author of Rainforest Shawman “A definite must-read for fans ready to immerse themselves in an adventure of ingeniously detailed world-building, vivid imagery, and quests that take you across the realm.” - Hannah Pennington, author of The Tindoria Chronicles Pick up your copy of The Quelling today and visit www.cllauder.com to keep up with C.L. Lauder’s endeavors. About the Author C. L. Lauder grew up in South Africa before immigrating to the United Kingdom, where she attended the University of London to complete an MA in Creative Writing. She now lives at the foot of a lush mountain in Hong Kong with her husband and two rapidly lengthening sons, who all enjoy their newfound proximity to nature, and especially the sea. The Quelling is the first novel in this trilogy, a dystopian fantasy series set in a futuristic universe, and the author looks forward to furnishing you with the next installment, coming soon.

Taking the Guesswork Out of Finding the Right Therapist with Two Chairs

YourUpdateTV

A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/_XF1w-pVxZs While more Americans are seeking therapy than ever before, many people are matched with the wrong therapist. Two Chairs, the leader in connecting patients to the right therapist, has developed a solution called Matchmaker, an industry-leading technology platform that expertly connects people with the right therapist based on their health history, personal background, and clinical needs. Research shows that a strong client-therapist relationship is the key to great therapy but finding the right therapist can feel overwhelming. Knowing where to start and what makes a great patient-therapist match saves time and increases the likelihood of success. Data shows that the majority of people attend just one therapy session before quitting: ● 1 in 5 patients quit therapy prematurely because they don’t trust their therapist. ● Data finds that a strong patient-therapist relationship is the single best predictor of therapy success. ● Recent research shows that an average 15-20 sessions are needed for 50% of patients to recover. When Two Chairs hires a new therapist, Matchmaker analyzes their strengths, experiences, and skill sets, zeroing in on clinical presentations, diagnoses, focus areas, and demographics. For example, a therapist highly skilled in treating panic disorders may be less adept at addressing postpartum depression. Conversely, a clinician who has limited experience in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy may demonstrate a high level of expertise in utilizing Dialectical Behavior Therapy. This meticulous process ensures that the precise therapist-patient pairing is fine-tuned to match an individual's needs. Two Chair’s Matchmaker process considers over 300 factors, including therapy types (such as dynamic, emotion-focused, cognitive-behavioral, etc.), clinical styles, specific disorder expertise (anxiety, mood, trauma, addiction, eating, personality, etc.), life stages, relationships, identity, and more. Additionally, therapists can stipulate therapeutic approaches they choose not to practice, serving as a safeguard for both patients and clinicians. This comprehensive analysis ensures a tailored and optimal match for individuals seeking therapy. Established with the goal of providing the highest quality outpatient mental health care system in the United States, Two Chairs boasts an impressive patient retention rate, with 90% of their patients continuing to a fourth session—significantly surpassing the national average of 33%. Key to their treatment success is one of the most rigorous and sophisticated clinician-patient matching processes on the market. Two Chairs’ newly launched Matchmaker features further empower clinicians to practice at the top of their license, allowing them to focus on cases they are most skilled in treating. On January 10th, a media tour was conducted featuring Colleen Marshall, Vice President of Clinical Care at Two Chairs and a Licensed Marriage and Family therapist, to discuss the new Matchmaker feature and the importance of measuring outcomes to ensure clients get better faster. With a growing team of 500 licensed clinicians across 90 areas of expertise, Two Chairs has more than 20 million covered lives. Topics that Colleen Marshall discussed during the media tour included: ● Why a strong client-therapist relationship is crucial for effective therapy. ● Why it’s important to prioritize your mental health and destigmatize getting help. ● Reasons why people quit therapy, emphasizing the importance of a good therapist match for a long-term relationship that will lead to better outcomes. ● Why Two Chairs' developed the Matchmaker feature, delving into how it works to improve therapist-patient connections. For more information, visit TwoChairs.com About Two Chairs Two Chairs was founded in 2017 with a mission to build a world where everyone has access to exceptional mental healthcare. We're creating a better experience for both patients and clinicians by starting with an in-depth, research-backed matching process to ensure the ideal patient-therapist fit, offering hybrid care that gives patients and clinicians flexibility between in-person and virtual sessions, and measuring outcomes to ensure patients get better faster.
