Description
This compact guide is packed with the latest knowledge on the assessment and treatment of persistent depressive disorders (PDDs)
- the new DSM-5 diagnosis that amalgamates the categories dysthymic disorder (DD), chronic major depression (MDD), and DD with
major depressive episode (MDE).
Written by a leading expert, the book guides us through the complexities of assessing PDDs and the models for understanding how
these difficult-to-identify and potentially life-threatening disorders develop and are maintained over long periods. It then outlines
those therapies that have the strongest evidence base. The author goes on to explore in detail the cognitive behavioral analysis system
of psychotherapy (CBASP), a treatment specifically developed for PDDs. This compelling integrated approach incorporates components
of learning, developmental, interpersonal, and cognitive theory with aspects of interpersonal mindfulness. We are led expertly
through the therapeutic process using clinical vignettes and practical tips, with particular attention paid to identifying the assessment
and therapy methods most valuable in CBASP. Printable tools in the appendices can be used in daily practice.
This book will interest clinical psychologists, psychotherapists, psychiatrists, counselors, and students.
Reviews / Votes
Prof. Penberthy has written an excellent overview of the recent chronic depression category in DSM-5, persistent depressive disorder (PDD), reviewing a highly relevant body of literature and providing extensive summaries of empirically validated treatments. This text is a must-read for psychiatric and psychological practitioners and researchers, as well as anyone who is interested in depression, its biological, psychological, and genetic features, and clinical course."; James P. McCullough, Jr, PhD, Emeritus Professor of Psychology, Virginia Commonwealth University, Richmond, VA,USA; Clearly, this is a much-needed addition to the field - Highly recommended! Formerly known as dysthymia, PDD [persistent depressive disorder] is often a challenging condition. The book covers the basic terminology, diagnosis, epidemiology, comorbidity, scale assessments, and various pharmacological and nonpharmacological treatment options. It presents an unbiased and empirically supported discussion with great examples and wonderful charts. I was especially impressed with the clinician and self-report scale sections in the first chapter. The case examples throughout the chapters help tie the entire book together.; Reviewed by Nicholas Greco IV, MS, BCETS, CATSM, FAAETS, C3 Education and Research, Inc., in Doody's Reviews (January 2020);All prices
