À ce titre, il place la TCE dans le champ de la psychothérapie actuelle, y compris dans celui de la recherche portant sur les émotions et sur les processus de changement, en explore les interventions spécifiques et explique les mécanismes de changement sous-jacents. Il est richement illustré par des exemples cliniques d’interactions avec des patients présentant des problèmes psychiques spécifiques.Cet ouvrage destiné aux professionnels – et futurs professionnels – de la santé mentale (notamment psychothérapeutes, psychiatres, psychologues, et psychanalystes), fut le premier livre en français consacré à ce sujet. La 2e édition est enrichie notamment par des apports des neurosciences, des travaux sur les troubles anxieux, sur la formation et sur la thérapie de couple centrée sur les émotions.

  • Interventions et thérapies brèves : 12 stratégies concrètes

    Crises et opportunités
    • 3rd Edition
    • Yves Doutrelugne
    • French
    Si les thérapies brèves sont une méthode alternative aux approches traditionnelles et permettent une solution rapide pour un certain nombre de troubles psychologiques, elles bouleversent toutefois la relation d’aide dans le domaine psychologique, médical et psychiatrique mais aussi social.C’est pourquoi il est nécessaire d’apporter au thérapeute un éclairage clinique approfondi lui permettant de mieux maîtriser toutes les dimensions de ces thérapies. Par leur approche très pragmatique de ces différentes situations, les auteurs répondent ainsi aux questions que se posent les thérapeutes sur des thèmes aussi variés que les troubles anxieux, la dépression, l’alcoolisme, l’utilisation de la thérapie brève sous contrainte dans un service fermé ou avec des patients psychotiques. Pour cette nouvelle édition, entièrement mise à jour et augmentée, deux nouveaux chapitres viennent enrichir l’ouvrage :– le premier s’attache à l’apport des thérapies brèves systémiques dans l’accompagnement des troubles du spectre autistique ;– le second se concentre sur la contribution des thérapies brèves plurielles dans l’accompagnement et les soins en fin de vie.Quant au chapitre auparavant dévolu à l’alcoolisme, il s’élargit et est désormais consacré à l’addictologie dans son aspect plus général.Cet ouvrage s’adresse ainsi aux psychiatres, psychologues, psychothérapeutes, équipes soignantes et travailleurs sociaux.
