Description
Most books about doing psychotherapy are tied to particular psychotherapeutic practices. Here, seasoned clinical author Robin Shapiro teaches readers the ins and outs of a trauma- and attachment-informed approach that is not tied to any one model or method.
This book teaches assessment, treatment plans, enhancing the therapeutic relationship, and ethics and boundary issues, all within a general framework of attachment theory and trauma. Practical chapters discuss working with attachment problems, grief, depression, cultural differences, affect tolerance, anxiety, addiction, trauma, skill-building, suicidal ideation, psychosis, and the beginning and end of therapy.
Filled with examples, suggestions for dialogue, and questions for a variety of therapeutic situations, Shapiro's conversational tone makes the book very relatable. Early-career therapists will refer to it for years to come, and veteran practitioners looking for a refresherβor introductionβto the latest in trauma and attachment work will find it especially useful.
Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?
