This comprehensive and highly readable book outlines the main
psychological therapies used in contemporary clinical practice. It
clearly describes the underlying theoretical principles and
techniques and with vivid case examples, demonstrates the central
role of these treatments in mental health care. The contribution of
psychological and psychodynamic ideas to different psychiatric
presentations is outlined, including mood disorders, psychosis,
self harm and suicide. Other chapters specifically address recent
developments, including neuropsychoanalysis, psychedelic-assisted
psychotherapy and Open Dialogue. As the chapters unfold this book
illustrates how a psychologically informed approach to mental
disorder can enrich psychiatric practice by providing a holistic
and meaningful understanding of the symptoms of psychological
distress. Bringing together ideas from psychiatry and
psychotherapy, this is the go-to text for trainees, experienced
psychiatrists, and other mental health professionals interested in
the psychological and psychodynamic aspects of psychiatry. An
essential resource for preparation for the MRCPsych examinations.
