The study of dissociation is relevant to anyone undertaking research or treatment of mental health problems. "Cognitive Behavioural Approaches to the Understanding and Treatment of Dissociation" uses a cognitive approach to demystify the processes involved in linking traumatic incidents to their effects. Kennedy, Kennerley, and Pearson present a full and comprehensive understanding of mental health problems involving dissociative disorders and their treatment, bringing together an international range of experts. Each chapter addresses a single topic in full, including assessment of previous research from a cognitive perspective, recommendations for treatment, and case studies to illustrate clinical approaches. Using an evidence-based scientific approach combined with the wisdom of clinical experience, the authors make the relevance of dissociation immediately recognizable to those familiar.
