Overcoming Resistance in Cognitive Therapy de Robert L. Leahy

Overcoming Resistance in Cognitive Therapy

Autor Robert L. Leahy
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 18 sep 2003

Structura acestui volum este concepută pentru a ghida clinicianul prin mecanismele complexe care blochează progresul terapeutic, fiind organizată în trei părți esențiale: fundamentele teoretice ale rezistenței, analiza detaliată a dimensiunilor acesteia și gestionarea contratransferului. Suntem de părere că această lucrare reprezintă o extensie critică a literaturii de specialitate, deoarece nu se limitează la modelul cognitiv pur, ci integrează perspective din diverse școli de psihoterapie pentru a explica de ce anumiți pacienți rămân blocați în tipare disfuncționale. Credem că abordarea progresivă, de la conceptele de bază la analize specifice ale rezistenței schematice sau morale, oferă o rigoare clinică necesară în tratamentele dificile.

În contextul operei sale, Overcoming Resistance in Cognitive Therapy acționează ca un complement practic pentru Cognitive Therapy Techniques, Second Edition, unde Robert L. Leahy se concentra pe instrumentele de bază. Dacă în lucrări precum Emotional Schema Therapy autorul explora procesarea afectivă, aici el pune accentul pe interacțiunea dintre terapeut și pacient atunci când tehnicile standard eșuează. Clinicienii care folosesc Roadblocks in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy ca referință vor găsi aici o aprofundare a proceselor intrapsihice ale pacientului, precum aversiunea față de risc și rezistența la validare, care completează viziunea sistemică asupra obstacolelor. Putem afirma că rigoarea cu care sunt tratate subiectele precum auto-sabotarea și responsabilitatea compulsivă transformă acest text într-un instrument de diagnostic fin al impasului clinic. Tonul este precis și analitic, evitând generalizările și oferind strategii de intervenție ancorate în realitatea cabinetului, inclusiv modalități de a evalua și utiliza contratransferul pentru a debloca relația terapeutică.

De ce să citești această carte

Recomandăm această carte profesioniștilor care se confruntă cu pacienți „dificili” sau care par refractari la schimbare. Cititorul câștigă o înțelegere profundă a motivelor subiacente ale non-complianței, de la protejarea stimei de sine la teama de pierdere. Este un ghid esențial pentru a transforma rezistența dintr-un obstacol frustrant într-o oportunitate de explorare terapeutică, oferind soluții concrete pentru a depăși stagnarea în procesul de recuperare.

Recenzii

This book fills a major gap in the cognitive therapy literature, one that may often account for failure to attain therapeutic goals. The author, while committed to a cognitive model, shows a willingness to mine other therapeutic traditions for ideas that cognitive therapists can use. He has developed a well-thought-through typology of types of resistance, and provides a richness of clinical example and precise formulations of actions the therapist can take to help the patient overcome each type. This book will be an excellent text in courses in all the therapeutic disciplines. It will be especially useful for students in such professions as social work, who will encounter many clients who are induced by environmental and socialization influences to erect barriers to change.--Charles Garvin, PhD, School of Social Work, University of Michigan

For any cognitive-behavioral clinician who has ever asked, 'Why am I having such a difficult time helping my client change?', Leahy has provided an engaging, thought-provoking, integrative text that addresses this question most effectively. The text will appeal to therapists at all levels of experience, offering interesting variations on conceptual themes about why clients think and act in ways that maintain their problematic status quo in life, and in therapy. The book also succeeds in guiding therapists to assess and manage their own unwitting contributions to their clients' resistance, and thus become more adept in helping clients to progress.--Cory F. Newman, PhD, ABPP, Director, Center for Cognitive Therapy, University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine

Every so often, a clinical text is written that offers an innovative, rich perspective on a previously neglected problem of immense clinical importance. This volume achieves such heights. A 'must read' for any clinician who has been challenged by resistance in the therapy session, the volume is full of practical insight and treatment suggestions presented in a scholarly, thoughtful, and yet pragmatic fashion. Leahy addresses a significant gap in the cognitive-behavioral literature, integrating his clinical experience with psychoanalytic, behavioral, developmental, social, and cognitive theory and research on the topic. Whether a novice or expert in cognitive therapy, the reader will find this a stimulating and thought-provoking text with immediate application to the therapy session. It will be a valuable resource for graduate courses or professional workshops on cognitive therapy.--David A. Clark, PhD, Department of Psychology, University of New Brunswick, Canada

This volume fills an important gap. In his inimitable style, Robert Leahy addresses a topic that has been neglected by cognitive-behavioral therapists: how to work effectively with the client who is reluctant to embrace the many technical interventions the therapy offers. The book is easy to read and immediately useful to all cognitive-behavioral therapists, from students to experienced clinicians. This book will serve as an excellent supplementary text for graduate courses in cognitive-behavioral therapy. It is thought-provoking and rich, with dozens of clinical examples of effective work by an experienced and masterful therapist.--Jacqueline B. Persons, PhD, San Francisco Bay Area Center for Cognitive Therapy, and University of California, Berkeley

I was very impressed....I found it easy to assimilate Leahy's conceptualization of resistance into the cognitive paradigm....Reading this text offers providers a rich opportunity to learn about their own schemas and how they affect relationships with patients. The text has something to offer any provider who conducts cognitive therapy—not just for depression, but for any problem. In addition, Part 3 is an excellent resource for clinical supervision of students, interns, and residents. I plan to use Leahy's Therapist's Schema Questionnaire to help cognitive therapy students recognize their own schemas and manage them to optimize therapeutic change....I enthusiastically praise Overcoming Resistance in Cognitive Therapy as a pioneering attempt to improve upon cognitive therapy. The author of this text is an undisputed superstar in the cognitive-behavioral, scientific community. The concepts discussed in this book are truly visionary.
--Psychiatry: Interpersonal and Biological Processes, 7/18/2003ƒƒ
This is an excellent book that will be profitably read and studied by both beginning and experienced therapists with some sophistication in cognitive-behavioral therapy and by practitioners of other approaches that like to keep informed on innovations in the field of psychotherapy.
--American Journal of Psychotherapy, 7/18/2003ƒƒ
The book is especially relevant to cognitive therapists who can assess and revise their own attempts to reduce resistance and recognize the limits of the cognitive model, but it remains applicable to any therapists who have worked with clients who do not respond to therapy. ....Information is [presented] in an organized, concise, and reader-friendly manner, which makes this book a particularly useful resource for graduate courses in addition to a clinical tool to be used in practice.
--Contemporary Psychology, 7/18/2003ƒƒ
A superb book that outlines clinical strategies for the detection and amelioration of the barriers, or resistances, to engagement in cognitive therapy in order to reach those patients who are otherwise unlikely to fully benefit from standardized interventions....The text contains a wealth of ideas and illustrative case material to help the (cognitive) therapist navigate patient and therapist-patient resistances. It is destined to be a standard reference within the case conceptualization approach and is relevant for everyone practicing cognitive therapy.
--Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease, 7/18/2003ƒƒ
Leahy's work will be a much valued and practical addition to the bookshelf of CBT practitioners, and should be applauded for helping to establish resistance as an important area of inquiry on the CBT landscape.
--The Clinical Psychologist, 7/18/2003

Descriere

This practical guide presents Leahy's multidimensional model of resistance in cognitive therapy. Richly illustrated with case examples and session vignettes, the book addresses a variety of ways that clients may resist basic therapeutic procedures: noncompliance with agenda setting and homework assignments, splitting transference with other therapists, inappropriate behavior, and premature termination. Underlying processes of resistance are explored, from the desire for validation to risk aversion and self-handicapping. Also highlighted are ways that the therapist's own responses may inadvertently impede change. Provided are innovative tools for getting treatment back on track, including targeted interventions, in-session ""experiments,"" and questionnaires and graphic models to share with clients.
