Schema Therapy Adapted for Psychosis and Bipolarity (eBook, PDF)

Exploring the Multi-Self

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book explores how Schema Therapy and its underlying theory might be used in work with clients who suffer from psychosis, bipolarity and related symptoms.

The first part of the book presents in-depth qualitative research featuring first-person testimonies that describe the self-states or 'modes' of a person with psychosis or bipolarity. These self-states involve a range of features, such as emotions, thoughts, motivations and behaviours, which manifest as patterns. The second part proposes the adaptation and application of Schema Therapy, a transdiagnostic approach working with emotion and interpersonal functioning for clinical work with these two groups.

Offering unique insights, this text will appeal to a range of practicing clinicians, such as psychologists, therapists, psychiatrists and those with a special interest in psychosis or bipolarity.

Rezensionen

'As the founder of Schema Therapy, I am excited to see the paradigm expanded into new territories. This is the first book to explore how Schema Therapy can be applied - both theoretically and clinically - to working with individuals experiencing psychosis and bipolar conditions. Given the complexity of such presentations, it is clear that modifications of our therapeutic techniques are needed. This book fully demonstrates these through detailed case studies. What sets this book apart is the authors' ability to bridge theory and practice seamlessly. Rhodes and Vorontsova have not only added a vital chapter to the schema therapy approach, but have also opened doors to a more compassionate and effective treatment for individuals facing the challenges of psychosis and bipolarity.'

Jeffery Young, founder of Schema Therapy and co-director of Schema Therapy Institute of New York and New Jersey

'This book offers something many have long waited for: how to apply schema therapy, and techniques from schema therapy, in chronic psychosis and in bipolar disorder. Schema therapy is a particularly effective treatment for personality disorders and chronic depression. The authors of this book describe how the theory and practice of schema therapy can also be applied to these challenging problem areas. Clinicians will benefit greatly from this work.'

Arnoud Arntz, professor at the Department of Clinical Psychology, University of Amsterdam, Amsterdam, The Netherlands

'A masterful text on the application of Schema Therapy to Psychosis and Bipolarity. Chapters cover the value of a part-selves conceptualisation as well as creative adaptations to change techniques, brought to life by rich clinical accounts. A must read for anyone working in these clinical areas.'

Helen Startup, director of Schema Therapy School, UK
