Download or read book Handbook of Integrated Short term Psychotherapy written by Arnold Winston and published by American Psychiatric Pub. This book was released on 2002 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arguing that research shows that short-term treatments can be just as useful for many disorders and problems as long-term methodologies, the authors outline a system that incorporates cognitive-behavioral, interpersonal, and psychoanalytically derived expressive and supportive treatments. The system rests on four pillars of practice briefly summarized as consisting of the conceptualization and formulation of patients' problems, the setting of realistic treatment goals, the technique of knowing what to say to patients, and the maintenance of a positive therapeutic alliance. The authors also address the issue of medication and its integration with psychotherapy, and present research finding regarding combined treatment. c. Book News Inc.
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.
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.

Written by an expert psychiatric educator, this book is meticulously designed to emphasize clarity and succinctness to facilitate quality training and practice.

Topics include the principles of attachment theory, the dual system theory of emotion processing, decision theory, choice point analysis and a critical review of the research literature. The book then shifts its focus to a description in a manualized format of the objectives and tasks of each phase of therapy within the framework of the engagement, emotion-processing and termination phases. The book concludes with a chapter on psychodynamically informed clinical practice for non-psychotherapists. Short-Term Psychodynamic Psychotherapy is the ultimate tool for the education of students, residents, trainees, and fellows in psychiatry, psychology, counseling, social work, and all other clinical mental health professions.
Download or read book Time Limited Psychotherapy written by James MANN and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2009-06-30 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Waiting lists in psychiatric clinics and increasing numbers of patients in long-term psychotherapy have highlighted the need for shorter methods of treatment. Existing forms of short-term psychotherapy tend to be vague and uncertain, lacking as they do a clearly formulated rationale and methodology. The bold and challenging technique for brief psychotherapy designed around the factor of time itself, which Dr. Mann introduces here, is a method he hopes will revolutionize current practice. The significance of time in human life is examined in terms of the development of time sense as well as its unconscious meaning and the ways these are experienced in both the categorical and existential senses. The author shows how the interplay between the regressive pressures of the child's sense of infinite time and the adult reality of categorical time determine the patient's unconscious expectations of psychotherapy.

Book excerpt: This hands-on manual from Leigh McCullough and associates teaches the nuts and bolts of practicing short-term dynamic psychotherapy, the research-supported model first presented in Changing Character, McCullough's foundational text. Reflecting the ongoing evolution of the approach, the manual emphasizes "affect phobia," or conflict about feelings. It shows how such proven behavioral techniques as systemic desensitization can be applied effectively within a psychodynamic framework, and offers clear guidelines for when and how to intervene. Demonstrated are procedures for assessing patients, formulating core conflicts, and restructuring defenses, affects, and relationship to the self and others. In an easy-to-use, large-size format, the book features a wealth of case examples and write-in exercises for building key clinical skills. The companion website (www.affectphobiatherapy.com) offers useful supplemental resources, including Psychotherapy Assessment Checklist (PAC) forms and instructions.

Download or read book Short term Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy for Adolescents with Depression written by Simon Cregeen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-03-08 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Short-term Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy (STPP) is a manualised, time-limited model of psychoanalytic psychotherapy comprising twenty-eight weekly sessions for the adolescent patient and seven sessions for parents or carers, designed so that it can be delivered within a public mental health system, such as Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services in the UK. It has its origins in psychoanalytic theoretical principles, clinical experience, and empirical research suggesting that psychoanalytic treatment of this duration can be effective for a range of disorders, including depression, in children and young people. The manual explicitly focuses on the treatment of moderate to severe depression, both by detailing the psychoanalytic understanding of depression in young people and through careful consideration of clinical work with this group. It is the first treatment manual to describe psychoanalytic psychotherapy for adolescents with depression.
Download or read book An Integrated Approach to Short Term Dynamic Interpersonal Psychotherapy written by Joan Haliburn and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-03-26 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Short-term dynamic interpersonal psychotherapy is an integrated, trauma-informed, contemporary, dynamic way of working with a range of mental health difficulties. Flexible though structured, phase-oriented, focused and time-limited, it is informed by the Conversational Model, Attachment and Interpersonal Theories and Brief Psychodynamic Psychotherapies, which are briefly described. It provides clinicians with a way of working with patients whose difficulties do not warrant long term therapy, who prefer a talking therapy or who have failed cognitive/behaviour therapies. With the help of examples, it guides the process of assessment and therapy with trauma in mind: using Conversational Model techniques where empathy replaces confrontation; resistance is seen as a fear of re-traumatization; defence mechanisms are regarded as adaptive coping mechanisms which later become maladaptive; transference interventions replace interpretations, and self-reflective capacity is encouraged rather than just insight. Separation anxiety is addressed and anxiety-provoking techniques are avoided, given that anxiety is a large part of most presentations.
Download or read book Short term Anxiety provoking Psychotherapy written by Peter E. Sifneos and published by . This book was released on 1992-05-04 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Short-Term Anxiety-Provoking Psychotherapy (STAPP) is the oldest systematically studied type of brief psychotherapy in the United States. Developed in the 1950s by Peter Sifneos, it has become increasingly popular in recent years. Mental health professionals in Europe and the Americas have flocked to Sifneos's workshops, seminars, and lectures. Now, at last, in response to numerous requests for information, Sifneos has compiled this step-by-step guide to his method." "STAPP represents a distillation of traditional psychoanalytic techniques tapping the patient's ability both to establish a transference relationship with the therapist and to understand the roots of psychological conflicts. Although designed to help relatively healthy people with a single circumscribed emotional problem, STAPP gives patients the tools for dealing with future problems after therapy has terminated. The "short-term" in STAPP usually represents several months and rarely exceeds a year, a time span that not only eases the financial burden but contributes to the likelihood that the patient will complete the course of therapy. The "anxiety-provoking" component, Sifneos says, reflects the therapist's role as a teacher - an objective person who raises questions that wouldn't have occurred to the patient precisely because they are anxiety-inducing." "With its rich clinical material. this manual provides innumerable examples of new options available to therapists, enlarging and enriching their therapeutic armamentarium."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
