Introduces the principles and applications of cognitive analytic
therapy (CAT) Cognitive Analytic Therapy (CAT) is an increasingly
popular approach to therapy that is now widely recognised as a
genuinely integrative and fundamentally relational model of
psychotherapy. This new edition of the definitive text to CAT
offers a systematic and comprehensive introduction to its origins,
development, and practice. It also provides a fully updated
overview of developments in the theory, research, and applications
of CAT, including clarification and re-statement of basic concepts,
such as reciprocal roles and reciprocal role procedures, as well as
extensions into new areas of expertise. Introducing Cognitive
Analytic Therapy: Principles and Practice of a Relational Approach
to Mental Health, 2nd Edition starts with a brief account of the
scope and focus of CAT and how it evolved and explains the main
features of its practice. It next offers a brief account of a
relatively straightforward therapy to give readers a sense of the
unfolding structure and style of a time-limited CAT. Following that
are chapters that consider the normal and abnormal development of
the Self and that introduce influential concepts from Vygotskian,
Bakhtinian and developmental psychology. Subsequent chapters
describe selection and assessment; reformulation; the course of
therapy; the 'ideal model' of therapist activity and its relation
to the supervision of therapists; applications of CAT in various
patient groups and settings and in treating personality type
disorders; use in 'reflective practice'; a CAT perspective on the
'difficult' patient; and systemic and 'contextual' approaches.
Presents an updated introduction and overview of the principles and
practice of cognitive analytic therapy (CAT) Updates the first
edition with developments from the last decade, in which CAT theory
has deepened and the approach has been applied to new patient
groups and extended far beyond its roots Includes detailed,
applicable 'how to' descriptions of CAT in practice Includes
references to CAT published works and suggestions for further
reading within each chapter Includes a glossary of terms and
several appendices containing the CAT Psychotherapy File; a summary
of CAT competences extracted from Roth and Pilling; the Personality
Structure Questionnaire; and a description of repertory grid basics
and their use in CAT Co-written by the creator of the CAT model,
Anthony Ryle, in collaboration with leading CAT practitioner,
trainer, and researcher, Ian B. Kerr Introducing Cognitive Analytic
Therapy is the definitive book for CAT practitioners and CAT
trainees at skills, practitioner, and psychotherapy levels. It
should also be of considerable interest and relevance to mental
health professionals of all orientations, including clinical
psychologists, psychiatrists, counselors, mental health nurses, to
those working in forensic and various institutional settings, and
to a range of other health care and social work professionals.
