Present-Centered Group Therapy for PTSD: Embracing Today
Autor Melissa S. Wattenberg, Daniel Lee Gross, Barbara L. Niles, William S. Unger, M. Tracie Sheaen Limba Engleză Paperback – 18 iun 2021
An alternative to exposure-based therapies, present-centered group therapy provides practitioners with a highly implementable modality through which survivors of trauma can begin to reclaim and invest in their ongoing lives. Chapters describe the treatment’s background, utility, relevant research, implementation, applications, and implications. Special attention is given to the intersection of group treatment and PTSD symptoms, including the advantages and challenges of group treatment for traumatized populations, and the importance of member-driven processes and solutions in trauma recovery.
Compatible with a broad range of theoretical orientations, this book offers clinicians, supervisors, mentors, and students a way to expand their clinical repertoire for effectively and flexibly addressing the impact of psychological trauma.

Recenzii
Present-Centered Group Therapy for PTSD: Embracing Today represents an important new evidence-based approach for treating PTSD.

Drawing upon years of research findings, academic rigor and clinical practice, authors Melissa Wattenberg, Dan Gross, Barbara Niles, Bill Unger and M.Tricia Shea bring Present-Centered Group Therapy to the forefront as an evidenced-based and clinically sustaining group treatment for addressing PTSD. Their book Present-Centered Group Therapy for PTSD: Embracing Today, is as comprehensive as it is a clear and compelling. The chapters move from the origins, components and evidence of PCGT to a complete three chapter manual which invites the reader to learn from experts who have spent years helping veterans open a space and place for their present self in a trusted group. Followed by chapters which expand the readers understanding of " present" in PCGT, the efficacy of group in trauma treatment and the effective application of PCGT to other treatment contexts, this book is a unique contribution to trauma survivors and those working with them. We have come to a place and time where research and treatment inform each other with a true understanding of what trauma takes and what treatment works to return. The book, Present-Centered Group Therapy for PTSD: Embracing Today epitomizes that place and time.

Present Centered Group Therapy (PCGT) is an excellent alternative to trauma-focused treatment for PTSD that focuses on the here-and-now and not on traumatic memories. Through a combination of psychoeducation, problem solving, and group support, participants develop a better understanding of their PTSD symptoms and themselves, and learn how to embrace today by directly facing and overcoming the challenges in their lives. With over 20 years of research supporting its efficacy, PCGT is an effective, low stress option for treating PTSD, and helping people affected by trauma move on with their lives.
