This comprehensive and highly readable book outlines the main psychological therapies used in contemporary clinical practice. Covering the underlying theoretical principles and techniques, with clear case examples, it rigorously describes, demystifies and demonstrates the contribution of these treatments to mental health care. In addition, the contribution of psychological and psychodynamic ideas to a range of psychiatric presentation is described, ranging from affective disorders and psychosis to suicide. The book emphasises how a psychologically informed approach to mental disorder enhances and enriches clinical practice, providing a holistic and meaningful understanding of patients, supporting staff and deepening satisfaction in their work. There are chapters specifically addressing recent developments, including neuropsychoanalysis, psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy and open dialogue. Bringing together ideas from psychiatry and psychotherapy, this is the go-to text for trainees, experienced psychiatrists, and other mental health professionals interested in the psychological and psychodynamic aspects of psychiatry. An essential resource for preparation for the MRCPsych examinations.
