Book SynopsisNegative, distorted self-images are a key feature of social anxiety disorder (SAD)--and working with imagery can make cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) more effective for those who struggle with this debilitating problem. This book presents an innovative modular framework that incorporates vivid multisensory imagery into all aspects of treatment. Step-by-step guidance for implementing this evidence-based approach with individuals or groups is illustrated with rich case material. In a large-size format for easy photocopying, the book includes 35 reproducible worksheets and handouts. Purchasers get access to a Web page where they can download and print the reproducible materials.Trade Review"An excellent work that covers the most up-to-date research on and treatment for SAD. What sets this book apart is its emphasis on imagery, an aspect of CBT that many practitioners neglect in both their conceptualizations and treatment. Identifying and responding to relevant spontaneous images and inducing images for therapeutic effect can help clients change their cognitions at the emotional level. Therapists of any level of experience will find this book useful in constructing personal models of anxiety, focusing on the six maintaining factors of the disorder. The many case examples, session transcripts, and reproducible worksheets are valuable."--Judith S. Beck, PhD, President, Beck Institute for Cognitive Behavior Therapy "Recent years have seen an explosion of interest in mental imagery among practitioners and scientists alike. Even our best psychological treatments do not work for everyone, and we need to improve our techniques. Research on the mental imagery enhancements described in this book suggests they increase treatment completion rates and reduce symptoms. McEvoy, Saulsman, and Rapee are pioneering experts who are well positioned to integrate imagery innovations with existing evidence-based treatments. This volume is a 'must have' for all interested in expanding their clinical skills by adding mental imagery techniques to their toolboxes. The authors are to be commended for a most exciting book!"--Emily A. Holmes, DClinPsy, PhD, Department of Clinical Neuroscience, Karolinska Institutet, Sweden "This excellent book provides an intervention for individuals (or groups) with SAD that builds well on general CBT practice. The authors make a compelling case for the integration of imagery-based procedures as a means to increase the emotional impact of typical CBT procedures. They lay out their approach in a systematic and detailed but entirely accessible manner, which should be of great utility to novice clinicians and seasoned veterans alike."--Richard G. Heimberg, PhD, Department of Psychology and Director, Adult Anxiety Clinic of Temple, Temple University "This is a wonderful, much-needed volume written by authors highly respected for their research on and treatment for SAD. The book provides a cogent rationale for the benefits of incorporating imagery-based interventions in therapy and presents a step-by-step description of each phase of an empirically validated imagery-enhanced CBT protocol. Case examples, detailed scripts, and downloadable worksheets and handouts are included. A particularly welcome feature is the emphasis on treatment process. Straightforward and clearly organized, the book provides exemplary guidance for professionals, including those with only introductory knowledge of CBT. I will use this book in my graduate CBT seminars, as well as in our training clinic."--Lynn E. Alden, PhD, Department of Psychology, University of British Columbia, Canada -Table of ContentsI.

Book SynopsisIncreasingly adopted by therapists and mental health professionals, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients to cope with social, emotional and mental health issues by using the six core ACT processes: Acceptance, Cognitive Defusion, Being Present, the Self as Context, Values and Committed Action.This is the go-to-guide for evidence-based ACT techniques to be used by professionals to help their transgender, genderqueer, genderfluid, third gender and agender clients. It provides the tools to help these clients develop emotional processing skills they can implement throughout their life, from coping with mental health issues and substance abuse, to navigating prejudice and social pressure, to building a career and developing a family.Trade ReviewAlex Stitt has written a truly delightful, comprehensive, thoughtful, and engaging book about working with trans and nonbinary clients in therapy. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) - a mindfulness based approach - provides a meta framework for understanding gender, sexuality, and intersectional identities. I have learned so much from Alex Stitt's perspective, about the complexity of gender, the power of relational therapy, and of course, about ACT - a series of skills and techniques available to all clinicians, regardless of your background and training. The tone is deceptively casual, the language is decidedly queer, and the range of tools is broad and comprehensive. -- Arlene Lev, School of Social Welfare, University of Albany, Choices Counseling and Consulting, Author of Transgender Emergence: Therapeutic Guidelines for Working With Gender Variant People and Their FamiliesAlex Stitt has accomplished something wonderful; they have fully elaborated the relevance of Acceptance & Commitment Therapy to working with gender and gender identity. This book is grounded in cultural awareness of the needs of gender diverse clients with a strong unifying thread of respect for the agency and autonomy of transgender, genderfluid, and non-binary clients. -- Matthew D. Skinta, Ph.D., ABPP, Peer-Reviewed ACT Trainer, Assistant Professor, Roosevelt University, Chicago, ILA courageous volume that leaves no issue unexamined in its goal of modifying and applying ACT to function as a gender affirmative therapy. Never condemning, and yet never avoidant, this book asks practitioners to look deeply within themselves and to embark on a values-based journey to create a space in which the full range of issues in gender identity, expression, and experience can be approached openly, competently, and compassionately. Moving, wise, and effective it rises to the challenge it sets for itself, and invites readers to do likewise.Highly recommended. -- Steven C.

Book SynopsisThis is a comprehensive guide to the application of cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) throughout adult psychiatry. Case histories are used to illustrate the application as well as the theory underpinning the techniques. No school of CBT dominates in the book, but a range of CBT therapies are discussed, with particular focus on the evidence base for the interventions. This is a practical book that will guide and inform your treatment of patients. It is an indispensable resource for psychiatrists, CBT therapists and trainees, as well as a wide range of medical specialists.

Numerous and thought-provoking case examples show the practical application of various therapies and demonstrate a rounded approach to patient treatment.Trade Review“This author is to be applauded for distilling considerable clinical experience into a clear, surprisingly readable book … easy to navigate and dip into with a specific clinical question … also accessible to the non-specialist clinician.” - British Journal of Hospital Medicine. “All in all, this book is a comprehensive and user-friendly guide for the busy clinician.” - East Asian Archives of Psychiatry (Hong Kong College of Psychiatrists) “The emphasis on situations frequently encountered in secondary care, such as psychosis, personality disorder and prescribing issues make this book a particularly useful resource for psychiatrists in training and indeed other medics, such as general practice trainees, who have a particular interest in mental health.” - The British Journal of Psychiatry (BJPsych) “The strongest feature of CBT for Adults is its organization. Each chapter begins with a brief overview, presents its material, and ends with key learning points, references, and other recommended reading. …Readers…can expect to expand their knowledge of how CBT is applied to different presenting issues.” - Journal of Clinical Psychiatry “At first glance, I must say this is one of the most useful texts I have ever seen. I have a large library of books by the `experts’ but, having now acquired yours, I could throw most of them away! It provides the clearest account of how to apply the principles of CBT I have ever read. This text is full of common sense!” - Brian Copley, Accredited Cognitive Behaviour Therapist BABCP/UKCP "It is encouraging that clinicians can quickly learn to guide patients to complete behavioural and cognitive treatments for a large number of clinical problems that help many people within a few weeks...

Book SynopsisMagnetoencephalography (MEG) and electroencephalography (EEG) provide complementary views to the neurodynamics of healthy and diseased human brains. Both methods are totally noninvasive and can track with millisecond temporal resolution spontaneous brain activity, evoked responses to various sensory stimuli, as well as signals associated with the performance of motor, cognitive and affective tasks.MEG records the magnetic fields, and EEG the potentials associated with the same neuronal currents, which however are differentially weighted due to the physical and physiological differences between the methods. MEG is rather selective to activity in the walls of cortical folds, whereas EEG senses currents from the cortex (and brain) more widely, making it harder to pinpoint the locations of the source currents in the brain. Another important difference between the methods is that skull and scalp dampen and smear EEG signals, but do not affect MEG. Hence, to fully understand brain function, Trade ReviewThis Primer fulfills a gap in the human neurophysiology literature where no book exists dealing with MEG and EEG in equal terms. This is important since both methodologies are, in essence, complementary and jointly can be used to answer specific scientific questions with respect to a variety of brain functions. Special attention is paid to comparisons of findings obtained using both MEG and EEG modalities, what can yield important new insights, particularly in the growing field of cognitive neuroscience. Written in an appealing style, this Primer embraces the whole field of human neurophysiology." -Fernando Lopes Da Silva, MD, PhD, Emeritus Professor, Center of Neuroscience, Swammerdam Institute for Life Sciences, Amsterdam, The NetherlandsTable of ContentsPREFACE PREAMBLE SECTION 1 CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION MEG and EEG Setups Comparison of MEG and EEG Structure of this Primer CHAPTER 2: INSIGHTS INTO THE HUMAN BRAIN Overview of the Human Brain How to Obtain Information About Brain Function Timing in Human Behavior Functional Structure of the Human Cerebral Cortex Communication Between Brain Areas Thalamocortical Connections Intra-Brain Connectivity Electric Signaling in Neurons Membrane Potential Action Potentials Postsynaptic Potentials CHAPTER 3: BASIC PHYSICS AND PHYSIOLOGY OF MEG AND EEG An Overview of MEG and EEG Signal Generation Charges and Electric Current Ohm's and Kirchoff's Laws Relationship Between Current and Magnetic Field Superconductivity Inverse Problem Source Currents Primary Current Layers, Open Fields, and Closed Fields Intracortical Cancellation Volume Conduction Spherical Head Model Some General Points About Source Localization CHAPTER 4: AN OVERVIEW OF EEG AND MEG Historical Aspects Early EEG Recordings Early MEG Recordings Brain Rhythms Evoked and Event-Related Responses SECTION 2 CHAPTER 5: INSTRUMENTATION FOR MEG AND EEG EEG Instrumentation Electrodes EEG Amplifiers Differential Amplifiers, Common Mode Rejection, and Amplifier Input Impedances Standard Electrode Positions Effects of Reference Electrode on Potential Distribution Re-Referencing Relative to an Average Reference MEG Instrumentation Squids and Squid Electronics Flux Transformers and Their Configuration Shielding Other Means to Maintain a Noise-Free Environment Stimulators and Monitoring Devices Auditory Stimulators Visual Stimulators Somatosensory Stimulators Stimulators for Inducing Acute Pain Passive-Movement Stimulators (Proprioception Stimulation) Monitoring Devices Future Developments of EEG and MEG Instrumentation Developments in EEG Developments in MEG CHAPTER 6.

Book SynopsisThe Overcoming Eating Disorders, Second Edition program addresses the cognitive-behavioral treatment of Bulimia Nervosa and Binge Eating Disorder. CBT has been proven the most effective treatment for helping patients improve their eating habits and overcome their disorder.The treatment described is divided into three overlapping phases: behavior change, identifying binge triggers, and relapse prevention. The main focus of the program is the normalization of eating. Patients use self-monitoring forms to track their eating habits on a daily basis while they work toward establishing a pattern of 3 meals and 2 snacks per day eaten at regular intervals. Once a regular pattern of eating has been established, patients move on to recognizing and eliminating their triggers for binging and purging. CBT techniques like problem-solving and cognitive restructuring help patients deal with negative mood states, faulty interpersonal interactions, and errors in thinking. The final phase of treatment consists of a review of the positive changes that have occurred during treatment, as well as a discussion of any residual problems and ways to handle setbacks or lapses. Homework exercises are assigned at each session and play an important role in keeping patients motivated throughout the duration of treatment. This newly revised and updated Therapist Guide includes expanded information regarding weight and shape concerns and an entirely new chapter on adapting the treatment for use as a time-limited, therapist-assisted self-help program. Complete with step-by-step instructions for delivering the treatment, this guide is an indispensable resource that no clinician can do without.Table of ContentsTREATMENT PHASE 1 - BEHAVIOR CHANGE; TREATMENT PHASE 2 - IDENTIFYING BINGE TRIGGERS; TREATMENT PHASE 3 - MAINTAINING CHANGE; GUIDED SELF-HELP

Although sessions with a therapist or clinician are required, there are usually no more than 12 and each one is only 25 minutes long. You will do much of the treatment on your own using the workbook as your guide. You will learn and practice the skills you need to overcome your eating disorder and establish healthy habits, while consulting with your therapist for encouragement and support.

Book SynopsisTrichotillomania (TTM) is a complex disorder that is difficult to treat as few effective therapeutic options exist. Behaviour therapy has the greatest empirical support, but the number of mental health providers familiar with TTM and its treatment is quite small. This manual was written as a tool for therapists to become familiar with an effective treatment for TTM.The treatment approach described in this guide blends traditional behaviour with therapy elements of habit reversal training and stimulus control techniques with the more contemporary behavioural elements of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). In the first phase of the program, clients are taught skills for stopping and preventing their unconscious pulling episodes. In the second phase, clients are introduced to ACT. Unlike traditional interventions that aim to change type or frequency of pulling-related cognitions in the hopes of reducing urges to pull hair, this innovative program uses strategies to change the function of these cognitions. Clients are taught to see urges for what they really are and to accept their pulling-related throughts, feelings, and urges wihtout fighting against them. This is accomplished through discussions about the function of language and defusion exercises that show the client how to respond to thoughts about pulling less literally. Over the course of 10 weeks, clients learn to be aware of their pulling and warning signals, use self-management strategies for stopping and preventing pulling, stop fighting against their pulling-related urges and thoughts, and work towards increasing their quality of life. Self-monitoring and homework assignments keep clients motivated and engaged throughout.Designed to be used with older adolescents and adults, this innovative intervention has proven efficacy and is sure to be a powerful tool for the clinician who treats TTM.Table of Contents1.

Book SynopsisAn explosion of interest in the applications of hypnosis for clinical problems, especially pain, has led to a wide accumulation of research on hypnosis as a viable, beneficial supplement to treatment protocols. Over the past two decades, published controlled trials have confirmed that hypnosis treatments are effective for reducing daily pain intensity, increasing activity level, and improving mood and sleep quality in individuals with chronic pain. Moreover, evidence also suggests that hypnotic procedures can increase the beneficial effects of other treatments, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT). Based on these findings, there is a lack of practical resources in the field that offer recommendations for incorporating hypnosis and hypnotic protocols into treatment for pain management. This therapist guide fills this gap by distilling the techniques empirically validated by these clinical trials into one comprehensive, user-friendly volume. Organized into three parts, Hypnosis for Chronic Pain Management summarizes the findings from research, examines the effects of hypnosis on pain, and provides step-by-step instructions for performing hypnotic inductions and making hypnotic suggestions. Designed to be used in conjunction with the corresponding patient workbook, this unique therapist guide is written for clinicians who treat patients with chronic pain and who wish to incorporate hypnosis and hypnotic procedures into their treatment protocols, or those clinicians who already have training in clinical hypnosis and hope to acquire the skills needed to apply it to pain management.An excellent blueprint to understanding pain and the fundamentals of how hypnosis combined with CBT can offer pain amelioration. Perfect, even for uninitiated practitioners who wish to use empirically based scripts.--Jeffrey Zeig, Ph.D., The Milton Erickson FoundationPain can too easily enslave people, holding them captive in many different ways. It is a liberating theme of empowerment that echoes throughout Dr. Jensen''s work: he empowers clinicians to work more knowledgeably and skillfully with people who suffer painful conditions using his therapist guide, and he encourages the suffering individual to break free from pain''s grip with the practical pain management skills taught in his workbook. Dr. Jensen''s vision for the many ways hypnosis can help reduce the debilitating effects of painful conditions is fresh, inspiring and should be regularly integrated into every pain management program.--Michael D. Yapko, Ph.D., Clinical Psychologist and author of Trancework: An Introduction to the Practice of Clinical Hypnosis (Third Edition) and Treating Depression with HypnosisTrade ReviewReaders will come away with an overview of how to approach using hypnosis with those experiencing chronic pain and a good sense of both the issues involved in working with chronic pain and in using hypnosis. * Dr Angela Busuttil, The Journal of Critical Psychology, Counselling and Psychotherapy *Table of ContentsIntroduction ; Part I Understanding Pain ; Chapter 1: The Biological Basis of Pain ; Chapter 2: Psychological Factors that Influence Pain ; Part II Understanding Hypnosis ; Chapter 3: What is Hypnosis? ; Chapter 4: What Hypnosis can do for Pain ; Part III Using Hypnosis for Chronic Pain Management ; Chapter 5: Patient Assessment and Preparation ; Chapter 6: Hypnosis for Chronic Pain Management: The Basics ; Chapter 7: Hypnotic Inductions ; Chapter 8: Suggestions for Pain and Symptom Management ; Chapter 9: Suggestions for Thought and Mood Management ; Chapter 10: Suggestions for Behavior, Activity, and Sleep Management ; Chapter 11: End of the Session: Post-hypnotic Suggestions and Reorienting ; Chapter 12: Summary and Consolidation ; Pain Evaluation Form ; Appendix of Self-Report Measures Assessing Pain, Pain-Related Beliefs and Coping, and Clinical Success ; References ; About the Authors

Book SynopsisViolence is an epidemic that negatively impacts children across their lifespan. Reports indicate 2.1 million youth have experienced physical abuse during their lifetimes, disrupting the healthy development of children from the toddler years through adolescence, and most cases involve parents. Some parents lack the skills to effectively parent and use physical discipline as a strategy to control their children''s problem behaviors. They may use increasing force if children continue to be noncompliant, which places many children at-risk for harm.Combined Parent-Child Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CPC-CBT), created by Melissa K. Runyon and Esther Deblinger and outlined in this guide, provides an evidence-based intervention aimed at empowering families to develop optimistic outlooks on parenting and peaceful home environments, and to decrease stress experienced both by parents and children.
