Thoroughly updated and revised, the ninth edition of this
bestselling textbook introduces students to clinical psychology as
a bridge between science and practice. Extensive revisions since
the previous edition have resulted in the most accessible,
up-to-date and thematically integrated edition of Introduction to
Clinical Psychology yet, while maintaining the authority and
accessibility students and instructors have come to rely on.
Updates include: three new co-authors who are internationally
recognized scholar-practitioners; illustrations of how
psychologists use evidence-based practices to help clients; the
fictional 'Jackson family' case studies, providing vivid examples
of a family confronting numerous mental health challenges;
'Thinking Scientifically' sections in each chapter, which break
down how students can think critically with conflicting findings
and use them to draw conclusions; 'In Review' tables at the end of
each major section prompting students to review the material and
test their comprehension; and an expanded image program, printed in
color for the first time.
This Handbook surveys existing descriptive and experimental
approaches to the study of anxiety and related disorders,
emphasizing the provision of empirically-guided suggestions for
treatment. Based upon the findings from the Diagnostic and
Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5), the chapters
collected here highlight contemporary approaches to the
classification, presentation, etiology, assessment, and treatment
of anxiety and related disorders. The collection also considers a
biologically-informed framework for the understanding of mental
disorders proposed by the National Institute of Mental Health's
Research Domain Criteria (RDoC). The RDoC has begun to create a new
kind of taxonomy for mental disorders by bringing the power of
modern research approaches in genetics, neuroscience, and
behavioral science to the problem of mental illness. The framework
is a key focus for this book as an authoritative reference for
researchers and clinicians.
It is well-established that cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is a
rich and effective tool for treating a range of anxiety and mood
disorders and behavioral disturbances. Most clinicians, however,
have not been formally trained in how to administer CBT, and
integrating one of the many available manuals detailing
week-by-week protocols into their individual clinical practices is
a daunting task. Whether brief interventions are desired for use in
medication visits or whether key elements of CBT are needed for use
in an eclectic treatment practice, clear instruction is needed on
how to improve patient outcomes by adapting key components of
cognitive-behavioral interventions.
10-Minute CBT provides such guidance with a clear and
straightforward account of the principles of CBT that fit into the
realities of current practice for clinicians from any
interventional perspective. Instead of offering a full regimented
program of treatment, this book provides the philosophy and
elements of CBT so that select targeted interventions can be
integrated into already-established clinical practice. This book
offers a comprehensive overview of disorder-specific strategies and
core principles of CBT, as well as the empirical base that supports
these principles. Other features include therapist-patient
dialogues, an intervention troubleshooting guide, and "treatment
principle" boxes that provide rapid identification of key concepts.
Written by a team of experts representing a range of practice
formats, this book offers tools that will make CBT accessible to
and employable by all practitioners who wish to incorporate
elements of CBT into their treatment.
