Synopsis

Working with Dissociation in Clinical Practice brings together current literature and the contributing authors' professional and lived experiences to provide practical recommendations for supporting the mental health and wellbeing of individuals with dissociative difficulties.

Readers will benefit from learning how to apply this advice for best practice to a range of settings and client groups, ensuring more positive service user outcomes. Written in dialogue between experts-by-training and experts-by-experience, this essential edited volume covers practical strategies for practitioners working with dissociative clients. Authors address areas such as common misconceptions, assessment, co-morbidity, risk management and providing care and therapy within a trauma-informed and multi-disciplinary context. The book further explores support for dissociation within more specialist clinical areas, tailoring guidance to a range of client groups including, children, older people, those with learning disabilities, and those in forensic settings. It provides guidance for health systems and organisations to become more dissociation aware, within exisiting frameworks for trauma-informed care.

This book is a compelling read for clinical psychologists, other psychological and mental health practitioners, people with lived experience of dissociative difficulties and those who support them.
