Keck, Charles S. – Ethics and Education, 2019
Foucault's invitation to the subject is to become free of themselves by learning to think differently. Such a project has as its goal the mastery of the self, and can be understood as a Foucaultian 'politics of ourselves'. Foucault's ethical turn is an invitation for subjectivity to undertake its own radical education. Whilst this invitation has…

This book reviews the theoretical underpinnings and practice of dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), a radical treatment developed by Marsha Linehan to treat borderline personality disorder (BPD).

Schiavone, Francesca L.; Links, Paul S. – Child Abuse & Neglect: The International Journal, 2013
Objectives: Current research suggests that effective psychotherapies for Self Injurious Behavior (SIB) in the context of Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) contain generic common elements which are responsible for their success. Because of the links between BPD, SIB, and child abuse, it is likely that these common elements can also be applied…

Manduchi, Katia; Schoendorff, Benjamin – International Journal of Behavioral Consultation and Therapy, 2012
Practicing Functional Analytic Psychotherapy (FAP) for the first time can seem daunting to therapists.

Ringrose, Jo L. – British Journal of Guidance & Counselling, 2011
Psychotherapy for clients with Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID) is different to therapy with most clients because these clients are multiple, comprising one or more host, and one or more alter personalities. The necessary components to be addressed in order that clients can live successfully either as a multiple or as an integrated person are…

Objective: The aim of this study was to assess whether systematic reviews investigating psychotherapeutic interventions for depression are affected by publication bias.

Rizvi, Shireen L. – Cognitive and Behavioral Practice, 2011
Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) has become a widely used treatment model for individuals with borderline personality disorder (BPD) and other individuals with significant emotion dysregulation problems. Despite its strong empirical support, DBT obviously does not have positive outcomes for all individuals. It is critical that cases of DBT…

Objective: Premature discontinuation from therapy is a widespread problem that impedes the delivery of otherwise effective psychological interventions.

We aimed to evaluate the effect…

Anestis, Michael D.; Anestis, Joye C.; Lilienfeld, Scott O. – American Psychologist, 2011
Comments on the original article, "The efficacy of psychodynamic psychotherapy," by J. Shedler. As Shedler noted, some researchers have reflexively and stridently dismissed psychodynamic therapy (PT) as ineffective without granting outcome studies on this modality a fair hearing. We applaud Shedler's efforts to bring PT into the scientific…
