Experiential Therapies for Treating Trauma by Evan Senreich

Experiential Therapies for Treating Trauma by Evan Senreich

Experiential Therapies for Treating Trauma offers 17 chapters, with 15 of them focusing on a different experiential psychotherapy for treating trauma, written by clinicians with expertise in that modality. No other book contains descriptions of such a wide array of experiential therapies under one cover. Readers will obtain both a comprehensive overview of the many experiential therapies that are currently utilized and specific knowledge regarding how to utilize each of them in psychotherapy practice. The authors of each chapter emphasize that in working with clients impacted by trauma, there is a need for the use of therapeutic modalities that go beyond the cognitive processes central to talk therapy and incorporate more holistic, sensory approaches that emphasize the building of a strong relationship between the client and therapist. Both experienced clinicians and students will find this book to be an invaluable resource to enhance their knowledge of how to use experiential therapies and to motivate them to obtain advanced training in modalities that spark their interest.

"A must read! There is a slow but sure consensus growing among mental health professionals and researchers that experiential work is a missing key ingredient to achieving profound clinical changeMany already suspect this but wonder how to actually implement it with their clients. This important volume answers this question, providing clear rationales, guidelines, and examples on how to unlock the powerful benefits of experiential treatments."
Alexandre Vaz, PhD, director of training, Sentio Marriage and Family Therapy Program and Sentio Counseling Center

"Every psychotherapist must learn about trauma and its treatment, and the field of contemporary psychotherapy includes more methods and forms of treatment than ever. This timely and tremendously valuable book provides a clear, balanced, and conveniently structured resource for understanding the similarities, differences, strengths, and limitations of therapies from an essential domain of trauma treatment."
David S. Elliott, PhD, co-author of Attachment Disturbances in Adults

"Experiential Therapies for Treating Trauma is a well-written book about an area of importance to all counselors and psychotherapists. The format offers the reader an opportunity to sample 15 different evidence-based approaches described by experts. I appreciated its breath and depth. It is a must read for anyone who works with trauma, whether a beginner or expert. I highly recommend it."
