Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Object relations theory has been useful in understanding borderline personality disorder, and from this theoretical orientation have emerged effective approaches to its treatment. However, treatment based on the object relations model has tended to emphasize only the structural and technical facets of the psychotherapy enterprise, i.e., the frame of therapy, therapeutic neutrality, and interventions strategies, etc. In Another Chance to Be Real, Donald and Deanda Roberts argue that the incorporation of attachment theory and research enhances the effectiveness of treatment by expanding the clinical focus to include relational and process factors.

Book excerpt: Treating borderline patients is one of the most challenging areas in psychotherapy because of the patient's extreme emotional expressions, the strain it places on the therapist, and the danger of the patient acting out and harming himself or the therapeutic relationship. Many clinicians consider this patient population difficult, if not impossible, to treat. However, in recent years dedicated experts have focused their clinical and research efforts on the borderline patient and have produced treatments that increase our success in working with borderline patients. Transference-Focused Therapy (TFP) is psychodynamic treatment designed especially for borderline patients. This book provides a concise and comprehensive introduction to TFP that will be useful both to experienced clinicians and also to students of psychotherapy. TFP has its roots in object relations and it emphasizes that the transference is the key to understanding and producing change. The patient's internal world of object representations unfolds and is lived in the transference with the therapist. The therapist listens for and makes use of the relationship that is revealed through words, silence, or, as often occurs in the case of individuals with some borderline personality disorder, acting out in subtle or not-so-subtle ways. This primer offers clinicians a way to understand and then use the transference and countertransference for change in the patient.

This book was released on 2003-09-01 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book describes a practical, accessible, hands-on approach to the psychotherapeutic treatment of the borderline patient. The perspective presented is particularly suited to the clinician who has many such patients to face, but who is intimidated by psychoanalytic theory. The tactics and techniques described are based on two of the most obvious aspects of pathological behavior seen in borderline patients: 1) their massive dependency on parents, or new partners, who frustrate them endlessly, and 2) their refusal to give up hope on these "Bad Objects" despite a history of severe disappointment." "The theoretical model behind this dependency-based analysis of the borderline condition stems from the nearly forgotten work of W.R.D. Fairbairn, whose views have reemerged in the current writings of Kernberg, Masterson, Rinsley, and Gerald Adler. Fairbairn produced the first true Object Relations model in which he replaced the Freudian notion of the primacy of biological/instinctual motivation with a model based on attachment to objects. His first four theoretical papers are carefully reviewed and form the foundation for the methodology presented throughout the book." "The therapeutic techniques described are pragmatic, accessible, and based on the overall perspective that the borderline patient is pursing objects who have a powerful grip over him or her due to the mixture of hope and frustration that activates an internal state of extreme longing. This desperate internal state of longing for an object is a consequence of developmental deprivation and is generated, either unilaterally by the patient, or in other cases by the manipulations and implied promises emitted by the object. The therapeutic strategies that are described are accompanied by extensive examples." "Many of the techniques are targeted for specific borderline defenses, such as splitting, where the patient suddenly shifts from a position of unrealistic hope in their "Exciting Object" to abject despair when the same person is perceived (often only moments later) as a "Rejecting Object." There are also strategies for helping patients reduce their attachment to internalized objects as well as an in-depth discussion on the management of transference, which is conceptualized as the projection of internalized objects and egos into the therapeutic dyad." "Finally, there are techniques that help the therapist maximize his or her "introjectibility," which is designed to replace the patient's reliance on past destructive internalized objects with newly acquired positive internalizations of the therapist. This book can be used alone, as a handbook for the treatment of the borderline, or in conjuction with pre-existing models, many of which owe part of their structure to Fairbairn's original work."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
