Examines the nature of PTSD, and provides a framework

for implementing cognitive behavioral therapy...New!

Steven Taylor

This Clinician’s Guide addresses the complexities of treating people who have experienced different types of trauma, and shows how to adapt empirically-supported protocols to each client’s needs.  Rich case examples illustrate the “nuts and bolts” of cognitive interventions, exposure exercises, and adjunctive methods. 

This new edition includes a chapter on pharmacotherapy—what CBT practitioners need to know when treating clients who are also taking medication.  It incorporates over a decade of advances in assessment and treatment techniques, outcome research, and neurobiological knowledge.  Updated for DSM-5.

• Includes access to a Web page, to download and print the book’s 14 reproducible handouts and forms.
