Description
In this groundbreaking new study, three leading researchers and clinicians share what they have learned from treating and studying chronically traumatised individuals across more than 65 years of collective experience. Based on the theory of structural dissociation of the personality in combination with a Janetian psychology of action, the authors have developed a model of phase-oriented treatment that focuses on the identification and treatment of structural dissociation and related maladaptive mental and behavioural actions.
The foundation of this approach is to support patients in learning more effective mental and behavioural actions that will enable them to become more adaptive in life and to resolve their structural dissociation. This principle implies an overall therapeutic goal of raising the integrative capacity, in order to cope with the demands of daily life and deal with the haunting remnants of the past, with the "unfinished business" of traumatic memories.
The Haunted Self will be of interest to clinicians, students of clinical psychology and psychiatry, as well as researchers. All those interested in adult survivors of chronic child abuse and neglect will find helpful insights and tools that may make the treatment more effective and efficient, and more tolerable for the suffering patient.

Sensorimotor Psychotherapy
The body's intelligence is largely an untapped resource in psychotherapy, yet the story told by the "somatic narrative"—gesture, posture, prosody, facial expressions, eye gaze, and movement—is arguably more significant than the story told by the words.
