Antisocial, Narcissistic, and Borderline Personality Disorders

Autor: Daniel J. Fox

Número de Páginas: 227

This book provides a framework for scholars and clinicians to develop a comprehensive and dynamic understanding of antisocial, narcissistic, and borderline personality disorders, by seeing personality as a dual, as opposed to a singular, construct. Converging the two separate research and clinical diagnostic systems into a wholistic model designed to reach reliable and valid diagnostic conclusions, the text examines adaptive and maladaptive personality development and expression, while addressing the interpersonal system that keeps the pathology from extinguishing. Each chapter will discuss core and surface content, origin and symptom manifestation, system and pathology perpetuation, and online behavior expression, concluding with practical guidance on treatment success and effective approaches. Seasoned and tyro researchers and clinicians will be challenged to explore the utility of the DSM-5 alternative model of personality disorders and apply it to further the understanding of these complex, and often destructive, disorders.

Reimagining Therapy through Social Contextual Analyses

Autor: Bernard Guerin

Número de Páginas: 208

This book attempts to ‘shake up’ the current complacency around therapy and ‘mental health’ behaviours by putting therapy fully into context using Social Contextual Analysis; showing how changes to our social, discursive, and societal environments, rather than changes to an individual’s ‘mind’, will reduce suffering from the ‘mental health’ behaviours. Guerin challenges many assumptions about both current therapy and psychology, and offers alternative approaches, synthesized from sociology, social anthropology, sociolinguistics, and elsewhere. The book provides a way of addressing the ‘mental health’ behaviours including actions, talking, thinking, and emotions, by taking people’s external life situations into account, and not relying on an imagined ‘internal source’. Guerin describes the broad contexts for current Western therapies, referring to social, discursive, cultural, societal, and economic contexts, and suggests that we need to research the components of therapies and stop treating therapies as units. He reframes different types of therapy away from their abstract jargons, offering an alternative approach grounded in our real social worlds,...

Terapia de Aceptación y Compromiso

Autor: Steven C. Hayes

Número de Páginas: 527

La Terapia de Aceptación y Compromiso (ACT) pertenece a lo que ha dado en llamarse terapias de tercera generación que suponen una revisión de los planteamientos cognitivo-conductuales vigentes hasta no hace muchos años. La ACT asienta sus fundamentos teóricos en el contextualismo funcional y en la teoría del marco relacional, lo que implica un cambio radical en la consideración de los elementos del comportamiento humano, que ya no son analizados en su particular individualidad sino en cuanto elementos que forman parte del contexto en el que tiene lugar la propia conducta. En el ámbito de la práctica terapéutica, su aportación fundamental es la despatologización de la experiencia humana. Vivir no es una enfermedad, por dura que sea la realidad; lo verdaderamente patológico consiste en renunciar a las propias vivencias y experiencias vitales, la evitación vivencial. De este modo, la ACT se convierte en una invitación a la vida, a la realización personal a través de la propia trayectoria vital. Su objetivo terapéutico es el desarrollo de la flexibilidad psicológica a la que están enfocadas las distintas técnicas y herramientas recogidas en este manual. Los...

Océano Borderline

Autor: Luigi Cancrini

Número de Páginas: 412

La palabra borderline tiene un uso cada vez más amplio, entre los profesionales de la salud y en el habla cotidiana. El psiquiatra Luigi Cancrini utiliza una metáfora muy simple que puede ayudarnos a comprender mucho mejor este trastorno. Según Cancrini ello se debe a que el espacio que ocupan las situaciones asociadas a un funcionamiento mental borderline es mucha más vasto (el océano) que el que ocupan las neurosis y las psicosis (los continentes separados por el océano. Océano Borderline trata de los diversos significados que el término borderline ha ido adquiriendo a lo largo del tiempo. Basándose en su amplia experiencia, el autor se concentra en aquellas situaciones en que la regresión a ese nivel de funcionamiento mental se manifiesta de forma más clara y dramática: en los niños en situación de riesgo y en la infeliz vida de aquellos que sucumben a él. El libro ofrece además una síntesis muy interesante de los resultados de la investigación más vanguardista en materia de trastornos de la personalidad, así como de las experiencias recogidas en diferentes contextos sobre la posibilidad de tratarlas en términos terapéuticos.
