Designed for clinicians at every level, The American Psychiatric
Association Publishing Textbook of Anxiety, Trauma, and OCD-Related
Disorders addresses the origin, assessment, diagnosis, and
treatment of these disorders in a comprehensive, up-to-date, and
compelling manner. Fresh voices are everywhere in this
authoritative revision of the classic text, as more than 60% of the
contributors are new. They join stalwarts from the previous
edition-experts who bring stellar credentials and a discerning eye
to the task of revising the text to reflect cutting-edge
scholarship and evidence-based clinical knowledge. Following a
comprehensive overview of core principles, the book provides
detailed coverage of specific DSM-5 diagnoses: generalized anxiety
disorder, obsessive-compulsive and related disorders, panic
disorder and agoraphobia, social anxiety disorder, specific phobia,
and trauma- and stressor-related disorders. Each section presents
the latest thinking on phenomenology and pathogenesis, then
provides evidence-based clinical recommendations for
pharmacotherapy and psychotherapy. New and noteworthy material
includes the following: * Two new chapters focus on the features,
phenomenology, and course of acute and integrated grief, as well as
the epidemiology, clinical features, evaluation, and
pathophysiology of complicated grief (CG), which affects a
significant minority. Proper treatment of CG is critical, because
once it persists beyond 6 months, impairment may last for years, if
not a lifetime. Accordingly, a separate chapter is devoted to
treatment options, including a hybrid of cognitive-behavioral,
interpersonal, motivational interviewing, and psychodynamic
methods.* The Unified Protocol (UP) for Transdiagnostic Treatment
of Emotional Disorders is examined in a fascinating new chapter.
The UP is a promising treatment with empirical support for
reduction of both symptoms and higher-order temperamental changes,
such as changes in neuroticism, an underlying mechanism associated
with onset and maintenance of emotional disorders.* The chapter on
anxiety disorders in late life is completely new and emphasizes the
prevalence of anxiety in this population and its likelihood of
remaining undetected and untreated. The epidemiology, diagnosis,
and treatment of these disorders are examined in detail so that the
reader will recognize the clinical features, be able to
differentiate them from depression, and can identify appropriate
treatment, whether pharmacological or psychotherapeutic.* Each
chapter features a concise list of key clinical points to help the
reader focus on the most important material for study, as well as a
list of recommended reading for those who wish to learn more.
Grounded in the latest research, clinically rich, and pedagogically
strong, The American Psychiatric Association Publishing Textbook of
Anxiety, Trauma, and OCD-Related Disorders is the go-to text for
mental health clinicians looking for evidence-based knowledge and
support.
