        Diagnosis of Complex Posttraumatic Stress Disorder

        by Jan Gysi

        People with complex post-traumatic stress disorder often find themselves in a pattern of loss of control, helplessness, and dependency. A therapy that focuses on individual symptoms such as depression or a “simple” post-traumatic stress disorder often does not do them justice. Even more so when the wrong diagnosis is made due to false assumptions or a lack of information. What all must be ensured for the diagnosis to be made: is there a threat of intrafamilial or external violence? Is existential stability guaranteed during therapy? Are there investigations of legal proceedings in the background? With brilliantly structured overviews, this book helps even experienced diagnosticians to keep track of the variety of diagnostic options to be considered or ruled out and not to overlook anything.Axis I: Personality disordersAxis II: Specific stress-related disordersAxis III: Structural dissociation of personality: dissociativeand partial dissociative identity disorderAxis IV: Dissociative symptomsAxis V: Comorbid disorders For:• psychiatrists• psychologists• psychotherapists specializing in PTSD

        Attachment to Pets

        by Henri Julius, Andreas Beetz, Kurt Kotrschal, Dennis C. Turner, Kerstin Uvnäs-Moberg

        In recent years, the ancient symbiosis between humans and their pets has entered a new phase, marked by the burgeoning clinical specialty of human-animal therapy. This approach uses the relationship between humans and their (mainly) mammalian pets to support the growth of emotion regulation, social skills, and mental health in children, adolescents, and adults. But how are humans and animals able to develop close bonds at all? What makes it possible for animals to have a therapeutic effect on humans? And how can we best use this understanding in animal-assisted therapy? In this unique book, a team of expert biologists and psychologists integrate and combine sophisticated biological and psychological knowledge to answer these questions. Together they have created a comprehensive, scientific foundation for human-animal therapy, a foundation that will facilitate the development, implementation, and evaluation of effective new interventions.   Target Group: For Clinical psychiatrists, psychiatrists, mental health counselors, school psychologists, and other professionals interested in using pets and animals in therapy.

The aim is to encourage those affected to seek effective psychotherapeutic treatment focusing on Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), which was specifically developed for the treatment of borderline disorder and has proven to be very effective. The structure and workings of DBT are explained, pressing questions are addressed, and initial guidance for self-help is provided as well as assistance for relatives and references to self-help groups.

        ACT: Acceptance and Commitment Therapy

        With ACT Questionnaires for Clinical Assessment, 100 Questions

        by Paolo Moderato, Giovambattista Presti, Francesco dell’Orco

        Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is a psychotherapeutic interven­tion based on experimental evidence. Its goal is to help people implement concrete behaviors in accordance with their values ­ even in the presence of diffcult or interfering events. The au­thors clearly describe how ACT works and provide useful guidance for clinical practice. Soon the concepts of fusion and defusion become familiar and the Hexafex a way of thinking rather than appearing as a mere scheme. Accept­ance and commitment replace refusal and renunciation: this is the innovative therapeutic challenge of ACT. This manual, enriched with metaphors and exercises that can be used in a therapeutic session, is intended for reading by specialists by tackling the themes of this approach with rigor and depth, taking the reader step by step into the heart of ACT. The appendix contains seven ACT questionnaires for clinical assessment.

        by Rainer Sachse

        This practice-oriented guide presents a model of personality disorders (PDs) based on the latest research showing that “pure” PDs are due to relationship disturbances. The reader gains concise and clear information about the dualaction regulation model and the framework for clarification-oriented psychotherapy, which relates the relationshipdysfunction to central relationship motives and games. Practical information is given on how to behave with clients and clear therapeutic strategies based on a five-phase model are outlined to help therapists manage interactional problems in therapy and to assist clients in achieving effective change. The eight pure personality disorders are each explored in detail so the reader learns about the specific features of each disorder and the associated interactional motives, dysfunctional schemas, and relationship games and tests, as well as which therapeutic approaches are appropriate for a particular PD. As the development of a trusting therapeutic relationship is difficult with this client group, detailed strategies and tips are given throughout.
