PERSON-CENTERED DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT IN MENTAL HEALTH: A MODEL FOR EMPOWERING CLIENTS
Book ID/图书代码： 06930012B59093
English Summary/英文概要： Clients with mental health conditions are often diagnosed and treated using a strictly medical model of diagnosis, with little input from the client themselves.
This reference manual takes a person-centered, holistic approach to diagnosis and treatment, seeing the client as the unrecognized expert on their condition and encouraging their collaboration. This qualitative approach aims to find meaning in the experiences of the client, exploring the reasons behind their feelings and behaviour and taking the whole person into account. Designed to complement DSM assessments, the manual covers several different conditions including ADHD, depression, bulimia, and OCD, as well as mental health ’patterns’ such as abuse, bullying, violence and loss. In each case, the client is involved in the diagnosis and treatment plan. The book features extended case studies, sample questions and treatment plans throughout.
This will be an essential reference book for all those involved in mental health diagnosis and treatment, including psychologists, psychiatrists, mental health counselors, clinical social workers, school counselors and therapists.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 通常情况下，存在心理健康问题的病人都采用一个严格的医学诊断模式来进行诊断和治疗，很少输入病人本身的信息。
这个参考手册以人为本，把病人看做关于他们本身状况的未被认可的专家，鼓励他们合作，从而得到全面的诊断和治疗。这种定性的方法旨在发现病人经历的意义，探索他们感受和行为背后的原因，并且把病人整个人考虑在内。这本手册为了补充美国精神医学协会的评估而设计，覆盖了许多不同的状况，包括小儿多动症、抑郁症、暴食症、强迫症、还有一些心理将抗模式，例如：虐待、恐吓、暴力和精神丧失。每个案例里，病人都参与了诊断和治疗计划。这本手册的主要特点是自始至终的扩展性案例研究、模拟问题和治疗计划。
这本手册将成为所有涉及心理健康诊断和治疗的人，包括心理学家、精神病专家、精神健康顾问、临床社会工作者、学校辅导员和治疗师的重要参考资料。(LNL)
Awards/获奖情况：“这本书的成功之处在于，它为心理健康诊断和治疗提供了一个替代模型，利用病人授权模型强化了原有的医学模型。作者在病人授权方法的重要性方面提出了一个强有力的论点。这本书的独特之处在于，它包含可诊断疾病。这本书的另一个优点是它包含了经过授权的病人和从业者的问题，用来引导诊断和治疗过程。“——Donald Linhorst，美国圣路易斯大学社会工作学院院长 “《以人为本的心理健康诊断和治疗》证明了合作的、伦理的、授权的方法对于心理健康实践的价值。Ladd 和Churchill抛开了传统的为诊断而减低复杂性的医学模型，提供了一个清晰有效的指导方针，创建了一个整体的、人文的和微妙的方法，把病人的人性放在首位，强调谦虚的重要性，为实践者展现了一个合作的愿景。“—— R. Danielle Egan，美国圣劳伦斯大学性别研究教授
“我毫不怀疑，这本书将提高临床训练、专业顾问的实践和其他帮助措施。我必须强调一个人的积极影响，而不是以临床医生为中心的定向的帮助。我们随后的焦点应该放在精神健康模式和症状上，而不是障碍上,将焦点放在临床医师如何与病人工作上,而不是在病人身上。在这本书中提到的情况下是非常典型的。“——Elizabeth A. Mellin博士, 美国宾夕法尼亚州立大学教育心理学LPC分析、咨询、特殊教育副教授
“这本书中采用了以人为本的,全面的方法，是精神健康状况诊断和治疗的参考手册。”——《今日咨询》
’This book succeeds in its goal of offering an alternative model of mental health diagnosis and treatment that enhances the medical model with a client empowerment model. The authors provide a strong argument for the importance of a client empowerment approach. The book is unique in its inclusion of diagnosable disorders, and another strength is the inclusion of client and practitioner questions to guide the diagnosis and treatment process in a way that is empowering.’-- Donald Linhorst, Director of the School of Social Work, Saint Louis University, USA
’Person-Centered Diagnosis and Treatment in Mental Health illustrates the value of a collaborative, ethical and empowered approach to mental health practice. Departing from the traditional medical model which flattens complexity for the sake of diagnosis, Ladd and Churchill offer clear and helpful guidelines for creating a holistic, humanistic and nuanced approach that foregrounds the humanity of people coming for treatment and the importance of humility and a collaborative vision for practitioners.’-- R. Danielle Egan, Professor of Gender and Sexuality Studies, St. Lawrence University, USA
’I have no doubt that this book will enhance the clinical training and practice of counselors and other helping professionals. I cannot emphasize enough the positive impact of a person, rather than clinician-centered, orientation to helping. The subsequent focus on mental health patterns and symptoms, rather than disorders, provides a practical focus for clinicians on how to work with, rather than on, their clients. The cases provided in this book are outstanding.’-- Elizabeth A. Mellin, Ph.D., LPC, Assistant Professor, Department of Educational Psychology, Counseling, and Special Education, The Pennsylvania State University, USA
