Impulse control disorders (ICDs) include pathological gambling,
kleptomania, trichotillomania, intermittent explosive disorder, and
pyromania, and are characterized by difficulties resisting urges to
engage in behaviors that are excessive or ultimately harmful to
oneself or others. ICDs are relatively common among adolescents and
adults, carry significant morbidity and mortality, and can be
effectively treated with behavioral and pharmacological therapies.
This guide includes all the information and materials necessary to
implement a successful cognitive behavioral therapy program for
impulse control disorders (CBT-ICD). This evidence-based
intervention was developed for the treatment of pathological
gambling, kleptomania, compulsive buying, and pyromania.
Originators of interventions for impulse control disorders, the
authors review the background and diagnostic information for each
ICD as well as available treatment outcome studies; the assessment
process for each ICD problem and the individual therapy sessions
are also reviewed. This format affords you the flexibility to treat
one or more ICD problem, and since they co-occur, this approach is
essential.
This therapist guide and its corresponding workbook form a complete
treatment package. It is a resource that no clinician specializing
in these disorders can do without.
