Emotion-Focused Therapy for Complex Trauma: An Integrative Approach - Grand Format

"This book has much to offer both the novice and experienced therapist in the treatment of complex trauma. Along with providing an in-depth explication of the moment-by-moment process of emotion-focused treatment of trauma, it provides a rich theoretical grounding in emotion-focused therapy and is supported by process research. This book fills a gap in effective treatments for trauma and belongs on the bookshelf of every clinician who treats complex trauma." — Catherine C.
Classen, PhD, Associate Professor of Psychiatry University of Toronto, Toronto, Ontario, Canada ; past president of the International Society for the Study of Trauma and Dissociation. "This book is a gift to all clinicians working with trauma. Therapists from all approaches, from cognitive—behavioral to dynamic, will find Paivio and Pascual-Leone's presentation of emotion-focused therapy for trauma highly accessible and helpful.
It is a fine scholarly, integrative work that addresses all relevant literature and theory, presents a powerful and coherent model of treatment, and is virtually loaded with case vignettes that bring emotion theory, intervention principles, and clinical skill to life. Bravo." — Alberta Pos, PhD, C.Psych, Assistant Professor, Department of Psychology York University Toronto, Ontario, Canada. "Emotion-Focused Therapy for Complex Trauma is an incredibly important and timely book.
Paivio and Pascual-Leone are clearly both clinicians and researchers. Their work is well written, well theorized, practical, concrete, and evidence based. It is a service to patients and therapists alike. This book is a winner and makes a much-needed contribution to the field. There is nothing else like it out there." — Diana Fosha, PhD, Director of the AEDP Institute, New York, NY author of The Transforming Power of Affect co-editor of The Healing Power of Emotion.
