Product Description

Review

'This volume performs an enormous service... It is comprehensive, exhaustively researched, and carefully edited....[It] is grounded in theory and outcome research and also immediately translatable into clinical practice. The detail in which protocols and interventions are described adds significantly to its worth. Clinicians and academicians whose work involves community mental health, forensics, or disempowered populations of any kind will find it invaluable.' - The Journal of Psychotherapy Practice and Research; 'This is a book by and for clinicians and scholars. Each therapeutic problem is elegantly reconceptualized as a cognitive and/or behavioral challenge which is then translated into a practical treatment strategy. Thoughtful transcripts of actual therapy sessions attest to the feasibility, accessibility, and effectiveness of such a conceptually driven treatment approach.' - Mathew J. Friedman, MD, PhD; 'Representing the scientist practitioner approach at its best, this book provides a sweeping, detailed, and complex view of trauma... Chapters expertly balance empirical evidence with a sensitive understanding of the human, emotional experience of trauma survivors.' - Antonette M. Zeiss, PhD; 'This state-of-the-science book provides a practical guide to empirically supported interventions. Impressive in scope and scholarship, it highlights the emerging standard of care across the diverse forms of trauma.' - Kenneth S. Pope, PhD, ABPP

Product Description

This volume presents cognitive-behavioural approaches to treating PTSD and other trauma-related symptoms and disorders. Chapters describe pragmatic, clinician-friendly strategies for working problems that are prevalent across a variety of trauma experiences including intrusion and arousal, guilt, anger, substance abuse, dissociation and relationship issues. Readers should gain a deeper understanding of the goals and methods of trauma education, therapeutic exposure, stress management training, cognitive reprocessing, and other interventions, and learn techniques for defusing negative self-talk, working with traumatic memories, and helping clients develop new trauma narratives. Throughout the volume emphasizes the importance of situating symptomatic thoughts, feelings, and behaviours in their interpersonal and environmental contexts, instead of focusing on trauma history alone of viewing clients through a lens of individual dysfunction.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great practical and scholarly guide to working in trauma, 23 Sep 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Cognitive-behavioral Therapies for Trauma (Hardcover)
This book represents an exhaustive review of various cognitive-behavioral approaches to the treatment of trauma. It is scholarly and founded on strong scientific research without being pedantic or preachy. Amost every chapter has real-life clinical examples with actual narrative transcripts which can be quite compelling. I especially like the chapters on treating dysfunctional guilt and on dissociation, areas seldom discussed in traditional behavioral circles. All in all, I think this is a great addition to the library of any clinician dealing with emotional trauma.
