Overview
As you know, mindfulness is a powerful tool for treating a variety of mental health issues. However, if you're a clinician treating clients who have suffered from trauma, you are also aware that mindfulness can sometimes cause significant stress or discomfort. So, how can you incorporate mindfulness into your treatment--safely and effectively--for improved outcomes? Integrating Mindfulness into Psychotherapy for Trauma offers a transdiagnostic, process-based approach to treating trauma with mindfulness, with interventions that are practical, simple, and easy to teach. You'll learn how to form individualized, trauma-informed case conceptualization and treatment plans, and integrate mindfulness into psychotherapy with a focus on four interconnected mindfulness mechanisms: attentional focus, body awareness, emotion regulation, and changes in perspective on the self. You'll also find a framework for targeting specific trauma symptoms, with an emphasis on when and how to effectively integrate mindfulness into sessions, and a variety of mindfulness practices to help your clients make and sustain treatment gains. Strategies for how to intervene when difficulties such as panic attacks or painful memories arise during a mindfulness practice are also provided, along with discussions of therapist mindfulness and trauma stewardship.
