For more than a century, the psychotherapist role has been
dominated by Freuda (TM)s neutrality rule: dona (TM)t become
personally involved with patients! McCullough challenges this
widely accepted dictum in a new treatment approach for the
chronically depressed patient. He proposes disciplined personal
involvement as an alternative to therapist neutrality with
chronically depressed patients, describing how this approach can be
used in a contingent manner to successfully modify pathological
behavior. These latest guidelines expand on his pioneering work,
Treatment for Chronic Depression: Cognitive Behavioral Analysis
System of Psychotherapy(CBASP).
In this new volume, Treating Chronic Depression with Disciplined
Personal Involvement: CBASP, Dr. McCullough describes in detail
what disciplined personal involvement is and how it is
administered. The book was written during a current four-year
national clinical trial sponsored by NIMH involving 910 chronically
depressed outpatients being treated at eight sites in the U.S.
The following topics will be covered:
- Historical review of the psychotherapist neutrality role
- Rationale for disciplined personal involvement in the treatment
of chronic depression
- Training veteran psychotherapists to administer disciplined
personal involvement
- Numerous verbatim case examples presented to illustrate
therapist disciplined personal involvement
- Appendix Section operationalizing the CBASP disciplined
personal involvement techniques and discussing needed CBASP
research
McCullougha (TM)s fresh perspective and psychotherapy wisdom
make this text amust read for all clinical practitioners, training
clinicians in university settings, and psychotherapy researchers.
Treating Chronic Depression with Disciplined Personal Involvement:
CBASP offers a radically new alternative to the traditional
therapeutic relationship.
