Imagery is one of the new, exciting frontiers in cognitive therapy.
From the outset of cognitive therapy, its founder Dr. Aaron T. Beck
recognised the importance of imagery in the understanding and
treatment of patient's problems. However, despite Beck's
prescience, clinical research on imagery, and the integration of
imagery interventions into clinical practice, developed slowly. It
is only in the past 10 years that most writing and research on
imagery in cognitive therapy has been conducted.
The Oxford Guide to Imagery in Cognitive Therapy is a landmark
book, which will play an important role in the next phase of
cognitive therapy's development. Clinicians and researchers are
starting to recognise the centrality of imagery in the development,
maintenance and treatment of psychological disorders - for example,
in social phobia, agoraphobia, depression, PTSD, eating disorders,
childhood trauma, and personality disorder. In the fields of
cognitive psychology and cognitive neuroscience, researchers are
identifying the key role that imagery plays in emotion, cognition
and psychopathology.
The Oxford Guide to Imagery in Cognitive Therapy has been written
both for clinicians and researchers. For clinicians, it is a
user-friendly, practical guide to imagery, which will enable
therapists to understand imagery phenomenology, and to integrate
imagery-based interventions into their cognitive therapy practice.
For researchers, it provides a state-of-the-art summary of imagery
research, and points the way to future studies. Written by three
well-respected CBT researcher-clinicians, it is essential reading
for all cognitive therapists, who have recognised the limitations
of purely 'verbal' CBT techniques, and want to find new ways to
work with clients with psychological disorders.
