Description
Steven Levenkron's Cutting: Understanding and Overcoming Self-Mutilation is a seminal work that has helped to shed light on a traumatic psychological disorder affecting millions of Americans. First published nearly a decade ago, this revised edition includes illuminating case studies and newly available resources.
The book explains why self-mutilation manifests in self-harming behaviors and describes how patients can be helped. Levenkron draws on his own practice to explore the factors that predispose individuals to self-mutilation, including genetics, family experience, childhood trauma, and parental behavior.
