Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How Psychotherapists Live is a landmark study of thousands of mental health practitioners worldwide. It significantly advances our understanding of psychotherapists and counselors by focusing on their individual qualities and lives, revealing the many ways they differ as persons and how those differences shape their experiences of therapeutic work. Topics include the therapist's personal self, private life, individual beliefs, quality of life, childhood family experiences, and personal psychotherapy. Based on thirty years of research, the book is written to interest clinical practitioners while also providing researchers with a rich array of data. Clinical psychologists, psychiatrists, clinical social workers, and counselors can easily compare their own experiences with the thousands of therapists in the study by reflecting on typologies constructed from research findings. The book will also be a valuable resource for researchers studying the sources of variation in therapists' effectiveness.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Therapists are often expected to be immune to the kind of problems that they help clients through. This book serves to demonstrate that this is certainly not the case: they are no more resistant to difficult and unexpected personal circumstances than anyone else. In this book Marie Adams looks into the kind of problems that therapists can be afraid to face in their own lives, including divorce, bereavement, illness, depression and anxiety and uses the experience of others to examine the best ways of dealing with them. The Myth of the Untroubled Therapist looks at the lives of forty practitioners to learn how they coped during times of personal strife. CBT, psychoanalytic, integrative and humanistic therapists from an international array of backgrounds were interviewed about how they believed their personal lives affected their work with clients. Over half admitted to suffering from depression since entering the profession and many continued practising while ill or under great stress. Some admitted to using their work as a ‘buffer’ against their personal circumstances in an attempt to avoid focusing on their own pain. Using clinical examples, personal experience, research literature and the voices of the many therapists interviewed, Adams challenges mental health professionals to take a step back and consider their own well-being as a vital first step to promoting insight and change in those they seek to help. Linking therapists’ personal histories to their choice of career, The Myth of the Untroubled Therapist pinpoints some of the key elements that may serve, and sometimes undermine, counsellors working in private practice or mental health settings. The book is ideal for counsellors and psychotherapists as well as social workers and those working within any kind of helping profession.

Book excerpt: "Crazy All the Time is the story of psychotherapy in the real world." "Dr. Frederick L. Covan, chief psychologist at Bellevue Hospital, offers a vivid portrait - compassionate, insightful, and humorous - of life on the inside of the combat zone that is the psych ward. In this colorful and irresistibly readable book he tracks the progress of a group of psychology interns who confront an array of patients from paranoid schizophrenics to self-mutilators and suicidal adolescents. These are the accounts of everyday trials by fire, where cases unfold with wildly unpredictable turns, where each intern regularly faces the chasm that separates the world of academic theory from the messy lives of actual patients." "With an acute wit and penetrating sense of human nature, Dr. Covan guides the progress of these interns as they wrestle with fascinating cases - whether it is Brenda, a middle-aged woman who believes she has had sexual relations with the last five presidents of the United States and challenges her therapist's notions about the bridges we all build between public and private lives; or Sid, who swallows glass and razor blades and is either a petty criminal or a desperate young man calling for help; or Matthew, who performs the seemingly inexplicable act of cutting off his own penis." "In this moving and engaging story of patients and the men and women passionately committed to helping them, we see the full range of what psychotherapy can and cannot accomplish. Along the way, the special place called Bellevue comes alive, and so does the imprecise art of tending to the human mind."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Download or read book Psychotherapy written by William Schofield and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-01-22 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William Schofield presents a classic analysis of mental illness, of professional psychotherapists and their training, and of the elements of psychotherapy. He asserts the need for more rigorous selection of candidates for therapy and for a properly focused training of a new professional specialist: the psychotherapist. In his new introduction to this important critique, Schofield shows why his pleas for a rational training program are still appropriate. Psychotherapy is a pioneering critique of modern psychiatric practices. Far too many people see psychotherapy as a cure for every ill from tormenting self-doubt to lack of zest of life. Through failure to attend to careful assessment of the presenting problem, and the nature (and neglect) of the applicant's social resources, the psychotherapist can fall unwittingly into the role of moral counselor or morale coach, and can be seduced into the chronic role of "best friend." Schofield argues that today's overburdened expertspsychiatrists, clinical psychologists, and psychiatric social workersare not specifically trained to administer therapy through conversation. This book, first published in 1964, is an urgent call for a new specialist, a psychotherapist trained as a specialist in therapeutic conversation. This book is also a call for a more realistic public attitude toward mental disorderone which distinguishes emotional illness from unhappiness and discontent. Everyone interested in the growth, clarification, and evaluation of psychotherapy and counseling will be challenged by Schofield's arguments.
