Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The domain of supportive psychotherapy has expanded in recent years, reflecting changes in how psychotherapy is conducted and the role psychotherapy plays in caring for individuals facing difficult life experiences or living with diverse mental and physical disorders. This new, thoroughly revised and up-to-date edition of Learning Supportive Psychotherapy: An Illustrated Guide (first published as Introduction to Supportive Psychotherapy) instructs beginning psychotherapists in the fundamentals of this treatment modality, which focuses on patients' overall health and well-being and their ability to adapt constructively to their life circumstances. The linchpin of supportive psychotherapy -- and, indeed, all psychotherapy -- is the establishment of a true therapeutic alliance. Accordingly, the authors provide readers with skills aimed at instilling trust and establishing a productive therapeutic relationship, including techniques for alliance building, enhancing ego functioning, and reducing and preventing anxiety. In addition, the authors explore the general framework of supportive psychotherapy, including indications, phases of treatment, initiation and termination of sessions, and professional boundaries; explain how to perform a thorough patient evaluation and case formulation; and describe the process of setting realistic goals with the patient. The following features and areas of focus enhance the book's utility: Integral to the text's practical approach are the video case vignettes that accompany several of the chapters. These videos model effective psychotherapeutic techniques and strategies, which readers can incorporate into their skill sets. The chapter on crisis intervention has been thoroughly revised to integrate recent research findings on posttraumatic stress disorder, suicide, and critical incident stress management, and the illustrative multipart case vignette provides a therapeutic narrative that is compelling, relatable, and instructive. The material on the therapeutic alliance focuses on skill building, including how to anticipate and avoid disruption in treatment, how to discuss the therapeutic relationship with the patient, how to modify distorted perceptions using clarification and confrontation, how to deal with negative transference and therapeutic impasses, and how to reframe statements in a supportive manner. Outcome research receives its own chapter, in which the authors review the robust evidence base for the efficacy of supportive psychotherapy, including a number of outcome trials, bolstering the necessity of learning the techniques outlined in the book. The book concludes with 75 questions and answers to test the reader's comprehension and identify areas for further study. This new edition of Learning Supportive Psychotherapy: An Illustrated Guide builds on the well-earned reputation of previous editions. Beginning clinicians first learning the techniques of psychotherapy and veterans who must assess competence in the psychiatry residents they supervise will find the help they need in this down-to-earth, clinically rich guide.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many patients, supportive therapy is the treatment of choice, and for many others, the use of medications or of more expressive techniques optimally occurs in the context of a supportive relationship. Yet, there is a paucity of literature expressly devoted to the techniques and aims of supportive psychotherapy. In A Primer of Supportive Psychotherapy, Henry Pinsker remedies this situation by focusing directly on the rationale for, and techniques of, supportive psychotherapy. He explores this modality as a form of dyadic intervention quite distinct from expressive psychotherapies, and also shows how, to varying extents, supportive psychotherapy makes use of patterns of relationships and behavior, past and present. Pinsker's writing is wise, human, and direct. The realities, ironies, conundrums, and opportunities of the therapeutic encounter are vividly portrayed in scores of illustrative dialogues drawn from actual treatments. Destined to become the classic introductory work in the field, A Primer of Supportive Psychotherapy will be valued by students and trainees in all mental health disciplines--and by their teachers--for its wealth of practical guidelines and explicit instruction on how to develop, maintain, and make optimal therapeutic use of a supportive relationship. Psychopharmacologists, counselors, nurse practitioners, and primary care physicians are among the helping professionals who will likewise benefit from Pinsker's clear presentation of the principles of supportive work. Beyond its didactic value, this text will be an indispensable conceptual touchstone for any clinician interested in understanding more clearly the differences among various interventional modalities as a preliminary step in optimal treatment planning.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "What is supportive psychotherapy? Is it important? Is it any good? The term has been widely used and misused, variously and often poorly defined. "Supportive" has frequently served as a pejorative or disparaging rubric for weak therapy. Yet properly defined and employed, supportive psychotherapy is a potent intervention whose elements emphasize the core of all good psychotherapy (Markowitz, 2014; Markowitz, 2022a and 2022b in press; Markowitz and Milrod, 2021)"--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1989. This volume reflects the extensive experience of a clinician-educator in psychiatry and psychoanalysis. Dr. Werman presents a balanced, comprehensive, detailed, nondoctrinaire, and warm human treatment of the subject. He makes it clear that, while supportive psychotherapy can and should be based on psychodynamic understanding of patients, the technical principles that guide application of such understanding in supportive treatment are quite different from those guiding insight oriented therapy. Careful reflection upon the text and its many clinical examples will suggest that good supportive psychotherapy is extremely difficult and demanding of special skills.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intended as a primer for doing supportive therapy using psychodynamic principles, Doing Supportive Psychotherapy offers a solid foundation for the basic strategies and techniques of psychotherapy of any type (such as cognitive behavioral therapy, interpersonal therapy, etc.). However, that is where its similarity with other textbooks ends. The author has taken it as his mission to instruct in a lively, engaging, and personal style, cultivating confidence and taking the reader on a journey that parallels the intimate process of undergoing psychotherapy. The result is a text that reads more like an exciting novel than a psychotherapy "cookbook." The many, real-life case examples mimic the range of therapeutic interactions, and the dialogue between therapist and patient is conversational and realistic. At the same time, the book is grounded in the latest evidence-based research, which is cited throughout the text where relevant. This approach yields a book that is authoritative and practical, yet fun and easy to read. Whether resident or seasoned clinician, psychiatric nurse or social worker, readers of Doing Supportive Psychotherapy will be drawn into a vivid, fascinating, and compelling world, garnering psychotherapy knowledge, strategies, and skills along the way.

Book excerpt: Many therapists conduct supportive therapy, but that can mean all kinds of things. Brief Supportive Psychotherapy: A Treatment Manual and Clinical Approach describes Brief Supportive Psychotherapy (BSP), the first and only research-defined and proven therapy for depression and anxiety disorders. This book guides therapists in helping patients pay attention to, tolerate, and manage their often painful inner emotional life rather than having to avoid it. Research has shown that this helps most people feel much better. It's a relatively simple and powerful intervention for mood and anxiety proble.
