Negative rumination plays a key role in the onset and maintenance of depression and anxiety--and targeting this persistent mental habit in treatment can lead to better client outcomes and reduced residual symptoms. Rumination-focused cognitive-behavioral therapy (RFCBT) for depression combines carefully adapted elements of CBT with imagery, visualization, and compassion-based techniques. Leading clinician-researcher Edward R. Watkins provides everything needed to implement this innovative, empirically supported 12-session approach, including sample dialogues, a chapter-length case example, reflections and learning exercises for therapists, and 10 reproducible client handouts. Purchasers get access to a Web page where they can download and print the reproducible materials in a convenient 8 1/2" x 11" size.

Rumination er en central sårbarhedsfaktor og vedligeholdelsesfaktor for depression, og alligevel har den vist sig modstandsdygtig over for forandring og vanskelig at behandle. Denne manual – skrevet af en førende kliniker og forsker – præsenterer en empirisk baseret tilgang til behandling af klienter med alvorlig og kronisk depression gennem direkte håndtering af negativ rumination. Ruminationsfokuseret kognitiv adfærdsterapi for depression kombinerer nøje afpassede elementer af kognitiv adfærdsterapi med forestilling, visualisering og medfølelsesbaserede teknikker. Bogen, der er fyldt med casemateriale og indsigtsfuld klinisk vejledning, rummer alt det, der er nødvendigt for at implementere denne innovative 12 timers behandlingsform. Bogen, der giver en syntese af mange års eksperimentel forskning og klinisk erfaring i form af en enkel og effektiv tilgang, vil være interessant for enhver, der behandler patienter med depression, herunder kliniske psykologer, psykiatere, kliniske socialrådgivere, rådgivere inden for sundhed og undervisning samt psykiatriske sygeplejersker. Af særligt indhold skal nævnes øvelser i refleksion og læring for terapeuter og 10 reproducerbare handouts for klienter, som kan downloades og printes fra bogens hjemmeside. Edward R. Watkins, ph.d., CPsychol, er professor i eksperimentel og anvendt klinisk psykologi ved universitetet i Exeter, UK, og leder af Mood Disorders Centre og Study of Maladaptive to Adaptive Repetitive Thought (SMART) Lab.
