This book takes a person-centered, holistic approach to diagnosis and treatment, seeing the client as the unrecognised expert on their condition and encouraging their collaboration. This qualitative approach aims to find meaning in the experiences of the client, exploring the reasons behind their feelings and behaviour and taking the whole person into account. Designed to complement DSM assessments, this book covers: Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD); borderline personality disorder (BPD); bulimia; depression; general anxiety disorder; obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD); oppositional defiant disorder (ODD); post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). It then covers a number of patterns: pattern of abuse; pattern of bullying; pattern of compassion fatigue; passion of lateral violence; pattern of loneliness; pattern of loss; pattern of self-hatred. The book features case studies, sample questions and treatment plans.
