Psychotherapy and the Treatment of Cancer Patients: Bearing Cancer in Mind
Autor Lawrence Goldie, Jane Desmaraisen Limba Engleză Hardback – 4 aug 2005
Drawing on this research, the book advocates a more holistic approach to the cancer patient and suggests ways in which more expert attention might be provided through awareness, training and resources. The book describes the innovative approach of applying the psychoanalytic psychotherapeutic approach within the hospital context to help individuals cope with cancer. As well as an overview of cancer and the therapeutic approach, topics covered include:
* the impact of cancer on hospital relationships
* cancer in different areas of the body and mind
* ‘mind-bending pain’
* dread and trauma - on being told the truth
* psychoanalytic psychotherapy in the NHS 'general' hospital
* examining group processes in hospital.
Psychotherapy and the Treatment of Cancer Patients challenges the existing orthodoxies about palliative care and points to ways in which the principles and methods of psychoanalysis can be applied successfully to cancer care within the hospital context.

Recenzii
'... written from the heart by a clinician who has struggled on a daily basis on behalf of patients suffering with cancer... full of stories that place a spotlight on what 'caring' should mean, both from a professional and a personal perspective. It is important reading for any health professional who wants to understand the psychology of illness and the psychology of professionals and institutions.' - Georgina Gordon, Journal of Community Nursing
'This is an important book that should be widely read, and that could do much to alleviate human suffering.' - Maria Rhode, Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy
