Description
Cognitive Therapy for Personality Disorders: A Guide for Clinicians
This comprehensive guide provides clinicians with a thorough understanding of how to apply cognitive behavioural therapy to patients with borderline and antisocial personality disorders. Based on the treatment of over 100 patients, Kate Davidson demonstrates the effectiveness of this approach in reducing self-harm and improving psychological well-being.
Case studies and therapeutic techniques are described, along with current evidence from research trials. This book is an essential resource for psychiatrists, clinical and counselling psychologists, therapists, mental health nurses, and students on associated training courses.
