Metacognitive Interpersonal Therapy (eBook, ePUB)

Body, Imagery and Change

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Metacognitive Interpersonal Therapy (MIT) remains unique in providing instruments for dealing with clients with prominent emotional inhibition and suppression, a population for whom treatment options are largely lacking.

This book provides clinicians with techniques to treat this population, including guided imagery and re-scripting, two-chairs, role-play, body-oriented work and interpersonal mindfulness. Metacognitive Interpersonal Therapy is aimed at increasing clients' awareness of their inner world, fostering a sense of agency over their experience, and dismantling the core, embodied aspects of the schemas. The techniques included also provide clients with fresh instruments to overcome pain and act creatively in their everyday life. Using an improved version of the MIT decision-making procedure, the authors have provided a set of techniques aimed at modifying mental imagery, body states, and behaviour, as well as at steering attention to avoid falling prey to rumination. The book is structured to gently push clients towards change, but also to always prioritize the clients' goals and needs.

Metacognitive Interpersonal Therapy serves as an important guide for clinicians of any orientation.

Rezensionen

The field of psychotherapy is moving beyond old polarities. In this new volume on Metacognitive Interpersonal Therapy (MIT), Dimaggio and colleagues enter the central stage of this process. As readers we are introduced to the forefront of contemporary theoretical and technical debates. Deeply respectful and ethically grounded in style, while at the same time playful, challenging and conveying an intellectual joy of exploring new terrains. A delightful and highly stimulating read.

Metacognitive Interpersonal Therapy represents a significant addition to our world literature on psychotherapy and its application to complex conditions including persons with histories of trauma, maladaptive personality traits, anxiety, dissociation and eating disorders. While falling generally within the field of cognitive psychotherapies it moves beyond the dualistic views which separate mind and body which plague this approach. It understands human suffering cannot be reduced to discrete thoughts or failures to form singular adaptive ideas and advances our field by focusing on the inextricably entwined embodied and reflective experiences which lay at the core of mental health.
