Cognitive Therapy Of Personality Disorders by Aaron T Beck Md
Although they are a difficult population to work with, clients suffering from personality disorders can respond to treatment. Cognitive therapy, an approach that has been demonstrated to be effective with a broad range of clinical problems, has also been applied to this diagnostic group. This volume has grown out of that therapeutic work, and focuses on diagnostic criteria, cognitive conceptualizations of the personality disorders, cognitive treatment strategies, and techniques for developing a treatment program. Clinical data, case description, and clinical vignettes illustrate the various problems and interventions.
Aaron T. Beck, MD, is the founder of cognitive therapy, University Professor Emeritus of Psychiatry at the University of Pennsylvania, and President Emeritus of the Beck Institute for Cognitive Behavior Therapy. Dr. Beck is the recipient of numerous awards, including the Albert Lasker Clinical Medical Research Award, the American Psychological Association (APA) Lifetime Achievement Award, the American Psychiatric Association Distinguished Service Award, the Robert J. and Claire Pasarow Foundation Award for Research in Neuropsychiatry, and the Institute of Medicine's Sarnat International Prize in Mental Health and Gustav O. Lienhard Award.
