        Dealing with Borderline Personality Disorder

        by Bohus, Martin; Reicherzer, Markus

        About three out of one hundred adults experience a longer borderline episode once in their lives: violently fluctuating emotions, suicidal crises, self-harm and deep despair are accompanied by problems in the interpersonal sphere. These particularly affect the basic feeling of “belonging” to others, so that profound loneliness and lostness often alternate with disappointment and anger.  This guidebook provides information about the various characteristics of borderline personality disorder and its origin. The aim is to encourage those affected to seek effective psychotherapeutic treatment focusing on Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), which was specifically developed for the treatment of borderline disorder and has proven to be very effective. The structure and workings of DBT are explained, pressing questions are addressed, and initial guidance for self-help is provided as well as assistance for relatives and references to self-help groups.

        Diagnosis of Complex Posttraumatic Stress Disorder

        by Jan Gysi

        People with complex post-traumatic stress disorder often find themselves in a pattern of loss of control, helplessness, and dependency. A therapy that focuses on individual symptoms such as depression or a “simple” post-traumatic stress disorder often does not do them justice. Even more so when the wrong diagnosis is made due to false assumptions or a lack of information. What all must be ensured for the diagnosis to be made: is there a threat of intrafamilial or external violence? Is existential stability guaranteed during therapy? Are there investigations of legal proceedings in the background? With brilliantly structured overviews, this book helps even experienced diagnosticians to keep track of the variety of diagnostic options to be considered or ruled out and not to overlook anything.Axis I: Personality disordersAxis II: Specific stress-related disordersAxis III: Structural dissociation of personality: dissociativeand partial dissociative identity disorderAxis IV: Dissociative symptomsAxis V: Comorbid disorders For:• psychiatrists• psychologists• psychotherapists specializing in PTSD

        How to Build and Promote Social Competence

        by Stenzel, Nikola M.; de Veer, Anna-Maria

        Every person depends on communication with other people in everyday life. There is hardly any area of life that is not co-determined by interaction with others. The ability to shape relationships positively in the long term while achieving individualgoals plays a central role in human well-being. Accordingly, the promotion of social competence plays an important role in many psychotherapeutic contexts. This book provides information on scientifically established interventions as well as innovative concepts for building social competence. A practice-oriented guide primarily addresses the special therapeutic challenges that arise in the individual therapy setting for an interactive procedure such as social skills training: e.g., the practical implementation of role-playing and the difficulties that arise due to the dual role of “therapist - role-playing partner.” In addition, group therapy interventions are also described and numerous working materials are presented to support the implementation of the procedurein clinical practice. Target group: • medical and psychological psychotherapists• specialists working in psychiatry, psychotherapy,or psychosomatic medicine• clinical psychologists• training candidates (psychologists, physicians)in psychotherapy• lecturers of training courses and institutes forpsychotherapy
