Handbook of Diagnosis and Treatment of the DSM-IV Personality Disorders by Len Sperry Pdf

"In recent years, the prognosis for clients with personality disorders has improved dramatically thanks to a tremendous increase in the development of specific skills for assessment and treatment. This is the only volume to offer a vast compendium of treatment modalities and approaches that have proven effective for the full range of personality disorders." "Current research indicates that a combination of formats is the preferred treatment for most individuals with personality disorders. Appropriately, the volume focuses on ways of combining and integrating treatment modalities and approaches: individual, group, marital and family modalities; and behavioral, cognitive, interpersonal, psychodynamic, and medication approaches." "The Handbook begins by addressing how and why personality disorders - once considered difficult if not impossible to treat - have been reconceptualized in a much broader fashion. This new paradigm shift reflects breakthroughs in assessment and combined treatment strategies of personality disorders, which coincide with the increasingly differentiated criteria of DSM-III, DSM-III-R, and now, DSM-IV. The volume goes on to examine eleven distinct types of personality disorders as designated by DSM-IV. Each of these chapters is divided into five major sections: overview, description, clinical formulations, assessment, and treatment, with a major emphasis on the two latter categories."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Treatment Companion to the DSM-IV-TR Casebook by Robert L. Spitzer Pdf

One of the main purposes of psychiatric diagnosis is to guide treatment selection. Although the DSM-IV-TR Casebook discussions often briefly mention treatment and follow-up, the focus is almost exclusively on diagnosis. This Treatment Companion takes the next step: For 34 cases (all but 3 from the DSM-IV-TR Casebook), world-renowned experts discuss their approach to treatment for a case in their specialty area -- both how they would manage the specific case and the general principles of treatment for that disorder. Treatment Companion to the DSM-IV-TR Casebook is an indispensable companion designed to help students, residents, and clinicians conceptualize how DSM-IV-TR can be used in everyday practice and will be invaluable in helping mental health professionals develop a deeper comprehension of all diagnostic categories and their treatments.
