From leading authority John Briere, this book provides a
comprehensive treatment approach for survivors of childhood trauma
who numb or avoid emotional distress by engaging in substance
abuse, risky sexual activities, self-injury, suicidality, bingeing
and purging, or other self-harming behaviors. Briere shows how to
help clients identify and manage the triggers of these "distress
reduction behaviors," learn to regulate intrusive emotional states,
and safely process trauma- and attachment-related memories.
Emphasizing the therapeutic relationship, Briere's approach draws
on elements of psychodynamic, interpersonal, and
cognitive-behavioral therapy; mindfulness training; and dialectical
behavior therapy. The book combines cutting-edge clinical and
experimental research with clearly described interventions, case
examples, and reproducible handouts and forms. Purchasers get
access to a Web page where they can download and print the
reproducible materials in a convenient 8 1/2" x 11" size.
Grounded in research and accumulated clinical wisdom, this book
describes a range of ways to integrate mindfulness and other
contemplative practices into clinical work with trauma survivors.
The volume showcases treatment approaches that can be tailored to
this population's needs, such as mindfulness-based stress reduction
(MBSR), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), dialectical
behavior therapy (DBT), mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT),
and mindful self-compassion (MSC), among others. Featuring vivid
case material, the book explores which elements of contemplative
traditions support recovery and how to apply them safely.
Neurobiological foundations of mindfulness-oriented work are
examined. Treatment applications are illustrated for specific
trauma populations, such as clients with chronic pain, military
veterans, and children and adolescents.
