Book excerpt: The Scope of Brief Therapy Within the last two decades there has been a dramatic expansion in the uses of short-term treatment (Grayson, 1979, Small, 1979). Brief therapies have been and continue to be widely used with a number of different patient popu lations in a broad variety of service settings. They have been reported in use with children, adolescents, adults~ and the aged; in groups, families, and individual treatment; on college campuses, high schools, in community mental health centers, in child guidance clinics, in private psychiatric clinics, in hospitals as part of out-patient or in-patient therapy, in programs of preventive community mental health; with the rich, the middle class, and the poor (Barten, 1971, 1972; Caplan, 1961, 1964; Small, 1979; Wolberg, 1965). Further, short term methods of therapy range across all of the major and well-known theoretical orientations found in the broader field of psychotherapy. There are some unique theoretical contributions which can be found within this field as well.

Download or read book Short Term Dynamic Psychotherapy written by P. E. Sifneos and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-12-01 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Short-term psychotherapy, although brief, is not ephemeral. In the decade or two of its existence, it has grown into a sturdy tree, and a sign of its maturity is the fact that it is now the subject of an increasing number of overview articles summarizing its literature and findings. Yet it remains a young and vigorous discipline. Its pioneers have not been elevated to a pantheon of venerable but mute immortals; on the contrary, they are to be found at the forefront of the field, actively contributing to the development of its theory and practice. This volume is ample testimony to their continued creativity. Dr. Sifneos has lectured and written extensively about short-term anxiety-provoking psychotherapy (STAPP). Based on psychoanalytic principles, STAPP aims to resolve pathological psychic conflicts and help those suffering from them to learn new ways of being in their most intimate relationships. It does so by actively focusing the patients' sights on their Oedipal problems, and its effectiveness (given a proper selection of subjects by specific criteria) has been amply documented in controlled clinical studies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first edition of Planned Short-Term Treatment established itself as an essential guide for social work and other clinical practitioners by showing them how, by limiting the duration and scope of treatment, they can help their clients solve the problems that bring them to therapy. In this revised edition, the author maintains this focus on social work practice while integrating several new approaches. He includes a new chapter on marital and family intervention, which clinically illustrates the practice applications of such theories as One-Person Family Therapy and the Relationship Enhancement approach to marital therapy. He also incorporates the new advances in the treatment of anxiety and depression through a discussion of both cognitive therapy and interpersonal psychotherapy, and includes new sections dealing with very brief psychotherapy (one to two sessions). Planned Short-Term Treatment, Second Edition, will be both an invaluable text for social work students and a comprehensive guide for the social work practitioner and other mental health professionals.

Download or read book Short term Psychotherapy and Emotional Crisis written by Peter Emanuel Sifneos and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1972 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peter Sifneos describes a type of active and brief psychotherapeutic intervention which he believes is tremendously useful for selected patients with circumscribed emotional difficulties. The therapist assists the patient in defining the conflict underlying his dilemma and helps him learn to solve his emotional problems. As a result of this novel educational experience, the patient is able to use these newly acquired techniques to deal with other hazardous situations after the end of treatment. Indeed, the author maintains, the treatment is similar to an immunization procedure that enables certain individuals to prevent the development of emotional difficulties in the future. Dr. Sifneos describes two forms of this short-term therapy, "crisis-intervention" and anxiety-provoking--with emphasis on the latter--and presents in detail the theoretical background, criteria for selection of appropriate patients, technique, and illustrative case material.

Download or read book Psychotherapy and Counselling in Practice written by Digby Tantam and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2002-07-11 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The many different therapeutic models in use today can lead to blind spots in clinical practice. This important and timely book gives a balanced synthesis, based on actual cases, evidence, practice and experience, to describe the process of psychotherapy and identify the fundamental elements that lead to good outcome across all its schools. In the course of developing a consistently reliable, effective, practical psychotherapy, Digby Tantam pinpoints four essential principles: addressing the person's concerns; taking into account their values and personal morality; recognizing the role of emotions; and binding it all into a narrative treatment for symptom relief, resolution of predicaments, release from addiction or sexual problems, and finding happiness through intimacy. This book is essential reading for psychiatrists or clinical psychologists looking for a straightforward framework for short-term psychotherapy and anyone working long-term with patients using a psychotherapy model.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique book offers an invaluable introduction to the core concepts and skills required in conducting brief psychotherapy. Unlike other references, which attempt to review all of the literature pertinent to short-term treatment or to cover all of the many schools of brief therapy in current use, this compact work--another immediately useful offering in the Core Competencies in Psychotherapy series--is brimming with practical guidance on what to do in the therapy room. The contributing authors, all of them experienced educators intimately involved in teaching and training psychiatry residents and clinical psychology predoctoral interns in the practice of the brief psychotherapies, address six key models of brief psychotherapy that have garnered empirical support in the research literature: cognitive, behavioral, solution-focused, interpersonal, time-limited dynamic, and couple therapies. Additional topics covered include ingredients of successful short-term therapy, conducting brief psychotherapy in a multicultural context, combining brief therapy with medication treatment, and evaluating competence in brief psychotherapy. In the opening and closing sections of the book, the editors supplement the how-to expertise provided by the chapter authors by highlighting and synthesizing the common themes behind these chapters, furnishing readers with overarching principles and techniques to draw upon in their own practices. Fully indexed, this remarkable volume is destined to become the definitive guide to acquiring competency in the practice of brief psychotherapy (as mandated by the residency review committee), bringing to life the fascinating and challenging world of this modality for students, residents, and practitioners everywhere.

Download or read book Intensive Short Term Dynamic Psychotherapy written by Patricia C. Della Selva and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-05-08 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditionally, psychoanalytic treatment has been a lengthy endeavour, requiring a long-term commitment from patient and analyst, as well as vast financial resources. More recently, short-term approaches to psychoanalytic treatment have proliferated. One of the most well-known and thoroughly studied is the groundbreaking method of Intensive Short-term Dynamic Psychotherapy, developed by Dr. Habib Davanloo. Having trained directly with Dr. Davenloo, the author has written a clear, concise outline of the method that has come to be regarded as a classic in the field. The book is organised in a systematic fashion, analogous to the process of therapy itself, from initial contact through to termination and follow-up. Detailed clinical examples are presented throughout the text to illustrate how theory is translated into techniques of unparalleled power and effectiveness.
