Equal to the madness:
countertransference intensive psychotherapy for psychosis
Equal to the Madness presents Countertransference Intensive Psychotherapy (CIP), a contemporary psychoanalytic approach to the treatment of schizophrenia and psychotic disorders. Grounded in the work of Wilfred Bion and more than a century of psychoanalytic scholarship, it offers a practical, semistructured framework for assessment, therapeutic technique, and clinical decision-making. Integrating theory with detailed case material, the book provides clinicians with an organized and accessible approach to the psychotherapy of psychosis.
TREATMENT OF THE SCHIZOID PERSONALITY:
AN ANALYTIC PSYCHOTHERAPY HANDBOOK
Available from Pepperdine University
Treatment of the Schizoid Personality presents a contemporary psychodynamic approach to the assessment and psychotherapy of schizoid personality and related schizophrenia-spectrum conditions. Integrating classic psychoanalytic theory with contemporary research, it provides a comprehensive framework for understanding personality organization, therapeutic process, countertransference, and clinical technique. Practical case illustrations and treatment guidance translate theory into an organized approach to working with this often misunderstood population.
