Treating Trauma-Related Dissociation - A Practical, Integrative Approach.
This document provides a preface and overview for a book on treating trauma-related dissociation using an integrative approach. The preface emphasizes that while techniques are important, the therapeutic relationship and ways of being with the patient are the backbone of treatment. It acknowledges that evidence for treating dissociative disorders is still emerging, and the approaches described are based on clinical experience. The goal is to provide both practical techniques as well as guidance on the relational aspects of working with highly traumatized patients.
