Therapeutic Work for Children with Complex Trauma offers a
contemporary three-track psychodynamic treatment model to mental
health professionals working with traumatised children and their
caregivers. The book offers a contemporary and comprehensive
approach to working with traumatised children by integrating
knowledge and skills from traditional psychodynamic child
psychotherapy and more contemporary trauma-informed and
mentalization-based frameworks. It advocates three tracks of work,
involving direct work with the child, work with the child's primary
caregivers and work with the network. The book is divided into two
parts: Part I of the book covers the theoretical background and
Part II discusses the core components and phases of the
trauma-informed and mentalization-based treatment approach. The
authors bring out the specific dynamics of the psychotherapeutic
work through four composite cases woven through the book. Written
in accessible language this treatment guide is primarily aimed at
psychodynamically trained psychotherapists, mental health
professionals, and professional caregivers working with traumatised
children.

Recent research indicates that depression, once believed to be
relatively benign, is highly recurrent and does not respond well to
treatment. The goal of this book is to facilitate the development
of more encompassing theories and more effective treatments for
this disabling disorder by fostering dialogue and enhancing the
integration of work across the boundaries of separate fields. Each
chapter offers an overview of the state of the art of research in a
particular area - cognitive-behavioral therapy, psychodynamic
therapy, epidemiology, developmental psychopathology, neurobiology
- and explores both the implications of the latest hypotheses and
findings for work in other areas and the barriers to constructive
collaboration. In an integrative Epilogue, the editors identify and
discuss the points of primary convergence. They note
dissatisfaction with the DSM approach to depression because it is
insufficiently informed by basic research, and with existing
guidelines for intervention because they underestimate the need for
more extended treatments for many patients, the importance of
patient and therapist factors, and the central role of the
therapeutic alliance. etiologically-based, dynamic interactionism
model of depression that emphasizes recursive interactions among
genetic and neurobiological factors, personality, and life stress
in etiology. Finally, they reflect on the potential of this dynamic
interactionism model to guide future research on mood disorders and
the formulation of treatment guidelines that are better informed by
science and more congruent with complex clinical reality.

Authoritative and comprehensive, this volume provides a
contemporary psychodynamic perspective on frequently encountered
psychological disorders in adults, children, and adolescents.
Leading international authorities review the growing evidence base
for psychoanalytic theories and therapeutic models. Chapters
examine the etiology and psychological mechanisms of each disorder
and thoroughly describe effective treatment strategies. Highly
accessible, the book is richly illustrated with clinical case
material. It demonstrates ways in which psychodynamic theory and
therapy are enhanced by integrating ideas and findings from
neuroscience, social and personality psychology,
cognitive-behavioral therapy, and other fields. Winner-Goethe Award

followed by the principles of MBT and the basic clinical model in
individual and group psychotherapy. Other chapters offer extensive
clinical illustrations of the treatment of patients with
depression, psychosis, trauma, eating disorders, and borderline,
antisocial, narcissistic, and avoidant personality disorders. The
final section outlines the application of mentalizing and MBT in
different populations – children, adolescents, families, couples
– and their use in different contexts – teams, schools, and
care settings. Part of the Cambridge Guides to the Psychological
