Seeking Safety: A Treatment Manual for PTSD and Substance Abuse: Guilford Substance Abuse

Autor Lisa M. Najavits
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 7 feb 2002

Recomandăm acest manual ca referință profesională esențială pentru clinicienii care activează în domeniul sănătății mintale și al tratamentului dependențelor. Seeking Safety reprezintă standardul de aur în terapia comorbidității dintre tulburarea de stres posttraumatic (PTSD) și abuzul de substanțe, oferind un cadru terapeutic integrat care prioritizează siguranța pacientului în prezent. Subliniem faptul că acest model nu solicită explorarea detaliată a traumei trecute, ceea ce îl face extrem de util în fazele inițiale ale recuperării, unde stabilitatea emoțională este precară.

Structura volumului este riguros organizată în 25 de unități tematice, acoperind paliere cognitive, comportamentale și interpersonale. Remarcăm includerea unor teme precum „Detaching from Emotional Pain” (Grounding) sau „Setting Boundaries in Relationships”, care oferă instrumente concrete pentru gestionarea simptomelor de disociere și auto-vătămare. Din punct de vedere editorial, considerăm că utilitatea practică este maximizată de formatul mare al cărții și de prezența fișelor de lucru ce pot fi fotocopiate, facilitând interacțiunea directă cu pacientul.

Ca alternativă la Treating Traumatic Stress and Substance Misuse de Denise Hien, care oferă un cadru de evaluare mai larg, Seeking Safety se distinge prin caracterul său de ghid de implementare pas cu pas, fiind mult mai aplicat pentru lucrul la cabinet. În contextul operei autoarei, această lucrare este pilonul central ce precedă ghidul de auto-ajutor Finding Your Best Self, Revised Edition și completează abordarea din Creating Change. Remarcăm flexibilitatea modelului, care permite utilizarea sa atât în regim de spitalizare, cât și în ambulatoriu, indiferent de orientarea teoretică a terapeutului.

Recenzii

"This landmark volume presents a cutting-edge approach to the treatment of patients who depend on drugs to soothe the pain of PTSD. In stunning detail, Najavits shows how the same therapist can treat both conditions concurrently. Her kinder and gentler approach is a welcome change from traditional confrontational interventions. The volume is enriched by her empathy and wisdom. All therapists attempting to help these patients should have this book to guide them."--Aaron T. Beck, MD, founder of cognitive therapy

"Fabulous! This treatment manual provides practical, clearly described procedures for treating an extremely difficult group of clients. The organization of the treatment is superb. From my perspective, the most important parts of a comprehensive treatment are here--attention to the client's safety, targeting substance use simultaneously with targeting PTSD, integrating ideals and values (I love the quotations!), a core of cognitive-behavioral interventions, a focus on interpersonal relationships, and attention to the needs of the therapist. Very impressive. Obviously written by an experienced clinician."--Marsha M. Linehan, PhD, Professor Emeritus of Psychology and Director Emeritus, Behavioral Research and Therapy Clinics, University of Washington

"Born of experience and energized by passion, this carefully crafted and thoughtful treatment manual will guide clinicians through the tricky waters of substance abuse and PTSD treatment. Seeking Safety will help clinicians decide what to do and how to do it well. As empirically guided treatment manuals begin to emerge in greater numbers and varying quality, Najavits maintains an essential and elegant balance between a lucid map of treatment directions, on the one hand, and the complex dynamics of the clinical territory on the other. This is a very important work that I highly recommend for clinicians of every stripe."--Howard J. Shaffer, PhD, CAS, Director, Division on Addictions, Harvard Medical School

Descriere scurtă

This manual presents the most widely adopted evidence-based treatment for co-occurring trauma and addiction. For clients facing one or both of these issues, the most urgent clinical need is to establish safety--to reduce addictive behavior, build healthy relationships, manage symptoms such as dissociation and self-harm, and restore ideals that have been lost. Seeking Safety focuses on coping skills in the present; it can be implemented with individuals or groups, by any provider as well as by peers. It offers 25 topics, such as Asking for Help, Taking Good Care of Yourself, Setting Boundaries in Relationships, Healing from Anger, Honesty, and Coping with Triggers. The model is highly flexible, practical, and engaging, and can be conducted with any other treatment, including the author's past-focused model, Creating Change. The book has a large-size format and features reproducible client handouts that can be photocopied or downloaded.

See also Creating Change: A Past-Focused Treatment for Trauma and Addiction, and the self-help guide Finding Your Best Self, Revised Edition: Recovery from Addiction, Trauma, or Both, an ideal client recommendation.
