Emotion-Focused Therapy for Complex Trauma: An Integrative Approach


Add your own review!

Overview

This fully updated second edition presents theory, research, and practice guidelines for short term, evidence based individual treatment for adults experiencing the effects of complex relational trauma.  Disrupted narrative and emotional processes are common effects of complex trauma, and emotion focused therapy for trauma (EFTT) is well suited to address these difficulties. Clients with complex trauma often suffer long term challenges after repeated exposure to violence and betrayals of trust, typically by attachment figures in the form of child abuse and neglect. The authors bring more than 25 years of research and clinical expertise to this evidence-based treatment model, which enables therapists to skillfully navigate the unique challenges facing these clients. Chapters present practical aspects of EFTT alongside supporting research, allowing clinicians from different theoretical perspectives to either apply the complete package, or integrate aspects of the model into their current practice. This comprehensive and essential resource is fully updated with current developments in research, clinical practice, and training.

Reviews

This book is a breath of fresh air. It calls it like it is. The differential treatment model of what treatment for what disorder has had its day. The authors’ proposed process-based  approach to treatment moves us forward to a promising new transdiagnostic, transtheoretical approach focused on evidence-based processes of change that fit the needs of a given client. This is the future. A must-read, wonderful contribution. -- Leslie Greenberg, PhD, Distinguished Research Professor Emeritus of Psychology, York University, York, Ontario, Canada, and author of Patterns of Change and Changing Emotion With Emotion Sandra C. Paivio and Antonio Pascual-Leone have written an accessible and invaluable second edition of their integrative treatment model, emotion-focused therapy for complex trauma (EFTT). This innovative model is especially important as an evidence-based treatment of complex trauma of relatively short duration and with clearly delineated strategies and markers. Moreover, it has a flexibility of application and can be adapted for use with other treatment models depending on the needs of the client. -- Christine A. Courtois, PhD, ABPP, Licensed Psychologist and Consultant/Trainer, Trauma Psychology and Trauma Treatment; coauthor of Treating Complex Trauma: A Sequenced, Relationship-Based Approach and coeditor of Treating Complex Traumatic Stress Disorders in Adults The second edition of this classic text on emotion-focused therapy and trauma offers a fresh, coherent, and comprehensive perspective on the richness of emotional processes involved in the healing of wounds from adverse events. Many sufferers who need healing can be helped by the caring, compassionate, validating, but also well-informed and well-researched approach described in this incredibly clear and practitioner-friendly book. Well done and thank you to the authors for this pivotal contribution! -- Ladislav Timulak, PhD, Professor in Counselling Psychology, School of Psychology, Trinity College Dublin, Dublin, Ireland
