Cognitive Therapy for Personality Disorders by Kate Davidson

This book provides a thorough description of how to apply cognitive behavioural therapy to patients who are traditionally regarded as being difficult to treat; those with borderline personality disorders and with antisocial personality disorders.

"Kate Davidson brings a wealth of clinical experience to this concise guide, which conveys a sense of clarity and sound, practical adviceThe sections on antisocial and borderline personality types, and the detailed case studies and therapy extracts, ensure that cognitive therapists will feel better prepared and more confident for work with clients with complex problems." - Ken Gordon, Consultant Clinical Psychologist, Hampshire Partnership Trust, UK

"Cognitive Therapy for Personality Disorders has proven and invaluable resource for our Specialist Personality Disorders Recovery Team. We regularly reach for it during CBT supervision sessions and case discussions as a quick refresher for our practice. However, Davidson’s audience need not be limited to clinicians with such specific clientele. This text would also serve as an appropriate starting point for CBT therapists or clinical trainees who wish to expand their expertise to work with clients with personality disorders." – Shelley L. Kerr, The Journal of Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapy, Vol. 39, 2011
