Those of us who work in the field can find our work enhanced greatly by reading and applying the knowledge presented in this book. I most highly recommend.” Debbie Joffe Ellis, private practice, New York City “The editors of Psychopathology and Psychotherapy: DSM-5 Diagnosis, Case Conceptualization, and Treatment (3rd Edition)—Drs. Len Sperry, Jon Carlson, Jill Duba Sauerheber, and Jon Sperry—are to be congratulated for the development and timely release of a new resource for the conceptualization and treatment of a range of mental health disorders. Their book has captured the most recent evidence and thinking about mental health from an Adlerian perspective, and then deftly weaved in case examples, to highlight the value of this approach. This work will be of interest and value to psychotherapy trainees and practiced clinicians alike.” Keith S. Dobson, Ph.D., R. Psych., Professor of Clinical Psychology, University of Calgary, Canada; Past-President, International Association of Cognitive Psychotherapy “Psychopathology and Psychotherapy begins each chapter with a captivating story, which moves to examine changes from DSM-IV-TR to DSM-5. This skillful examination of contrast evolves into conceptualization of dysfunction through an Adlerian perspective, giving clarity to how one might use current systems to inform practice, and embrace mental health. A must have reference for students and practicing clinicians.” J. Steve Hamm, Ed.D., LCPC, Indian Oaks Academy, Manteno, Illinois “Psychopathology and Psychotherapy is a critical tool in assisting practitioners and practitioners-in-training to combine theory, practice, and diagnosis while incorporating a culturally sensitive framework. Rarely do we find books that allow us to directly apply a specific theoretical framework to our diagnostic work. This book will allow practitioners to broaden Adler’s work to incorporate DSM-5 and make specific suggestions on how diagnostic considerations can be linked to tailored treatment interventions for individual clients. A must read for current and developing Adlerians!” Katherine Helm, Ph.D., Professor and Director of Graduate Programs in Psychology, Lewis University Show Less
