Psychodynamic Concepts in General Psychiatry brings together 37
nationally recognized psychodynamic psychiatrists who discuss in
detail their understanding of how to work with specific types of
patients. Separate chapters on clinical syndromes, including some
of the most challenging that psychiatrists encounter - for example,
in self-destructive, posttraumatic, and abused patients - provide
both a historical review of dynamic perspectives and a detailed
discussion of differential diagnosis and treatment selection for
each disorder. Extensive clinical examples illustrating the
underlying psychodynamic conflicts of patients with these disorders
are presented as well. Also addressed in this volume are the
psychological aspects of the settings in which therapy is practiced
and the ways in which those settings affect both the psychiatrist
and the patient. The final section contains chapters on current
topics of particular relevance: the psychology of prescribing and
taking medication, the meaning and impact of interruptions in
treatment, and the provocative findings of new outcome research and
cost-offset studies. The book closes with a recommended curriculum
for training in psychodynamic psychiatry.
