This book was released on 1996 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long-Term Treatments of Anxiety Disorders is a celebration of the important advances made in the treatment of anxiety disorders since the 1970s. It is a unique resource that will enable the reader, regardless of theoretical or professional orientation, to develop an updated and balanced perspective on the psychological and pharmacological approaches to treating these disorders. The volume provides a critical appraisal of the long-term treatment of anxiety disorders and offers state-of-the-art recommendations for planning and implementing specific maintenance treatment strategies to ensure favorable long-term outcomes. Four general chapters present an overview of the epidemiology and natural course of the anxiety disorders, outline the basic mechanisms active in pharmacological and cognitive-behavioral treatments of these disorders, and extract lessons from the more advanced long-term treatment research literature on depressive disorders. The remaining 10 chapters are devoted to specific disorders and/or treatment modalities. Students who need to recognize the specific merits of psychological and pharmacological treatments of the anxiety disorders, clinicians who apply empirically validated treatment principles in their practices, and clinical researchers who recognize the challenge of developing a more robust foundation for optimal treatments all will find Long-Term Treatments of Anxiety Disorders to be an informative, stimulating, and practical resource.

This book was released on 2006-04-21 with total page 419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among the most prevalent and personally devastating psychological disorders the development of a cognitive approach to obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) has transformed our understanding and treatment of it. In this highly practical and accessible book, Jonathan Abramowitz presents a model of OCD grounded in the most up-to-date research that incorporates both cognitive and behavioral processes. He then offers a step-by-step guide to psychological treatment that integrates psychoeducation, cognitive techniques, and behavioral therapy (exposure and response prevention). Unlike other manuals for the treatment of OCD, this book teaches the reader how to tailor the choice of techniques and delivery modes for individuals presenting with a wide range of specific OCD symptoms, such as contamination fears and cleaning rituals, fears of harm and compulsive checking, symmetry and ordering, and severe obsessions with mental rituals. The techniques are illustrated with numerous case examples; clinical forms and handouts are provided for use with patients. A final chapter suggests strategies for overcoming common obstacles in treatment.

This book was released on 2017-07-13 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Obsessive-compulsive disorder can be a very disabling and distressing problem. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) has been shown to be very effective in helping people to overcome OCD. However, OCD is a highly heterogeneous disorder, often complicated by contextual factors, and therapists are often left wondering how to apply their knowledge of treatment to the particular problems as they face them in clinical practice. This book provides the reader with an understanding of the background to and principles of using CBT for OCD in a clear practical 'how to' style. It also elucidates the particular challenges and solutions in applying CBT for OCD using illustrative case material and guidance on formulation-driven intervention. The book also addresses commonly occurring complexities in the treatment of OCD, for example working with comorbidity, perfectionism, shame and family involvement in symptoms. Throughout the book, the authors provide tips on receiving and giving supervision to trouble-shoot commonly encountered problems, resulting in a guide that can help clinicians at all levels of experience.

Book excerpt: Clinical Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is distinguished from "normal" obsessions and compulsions primarily by the frequency and intensity of the symptoms, and the extent to which they interfere with daily functioning. In this book, the authors present current research in the study of the symptoms, prevalence and psychological treatments for OCD. Topics discussed include the role of Comorbid Personality Disorders (CPDs) in Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD); the adaptive significance of and natural expression of obsessive and compulsive-like symptoms; OCD in children; cognitive techniques for OCD treatment; the dimensionality of OCD symptoms; internet-based cognitive behaviour therapy for OCD; the phenomenology, correlates and psychosocial impact of obsessive-compulsive love; the importance of quality of life in patients with OCD; and an investigation into the dimensions of OCD symptoms in patients with Tourette Syndrome.
