This useful resource presents step-by-step guidelines for assessing and treating sexual assault survivors suffering from PTSD. Case examples illustrate how to implement core cognitive-behavioural techniques and deal with common problems and complications in treatment.
In the U.S. alone, approximately 1.5 million adult female survivors of rape are estimated to suffer from chronic PTSD. This invaluable book--informed by the latest research and written by two of the leading authorities in the field--provides a step-by-step guide to proven brief therapy techniques for treating traumatized women. Filling an urgent need of front-line practitioners working within managed care guidelines, the book includes numerous case examples illustrating sensitive and effective information-gathering and intervention, as well as explanations of how to cope with common problems and complications in treatment.
"A splendid book.... The book opens with a vivid, gripping account of rape trauma that underscores the terror of sexual violence. Turning next to the scientific literature, the authors review studies on epidemiology, psychopathology, and treatment for rape-related posttraumatic stress disorder, and interpret these data within the framework of Foa's emotional processing theory. In addition to being a first-rate work of scholarship, this book provides detailed, explicit guidance on how to conduct state-of-the-art treatment for survivors of sexual assault. Accordingly, this excellent book is essential reading for mental health professionals who work with women who have been raped." --Richard J. McNally, PhD, Department of Psychology, Harvard University "All of the treatment description chapters are particularly wonderful. They provide great detail on length of sessions and all of the specific procedures. In addition, invaluable case examples are provided and specific problems that may come up are addressed. This book will be an incredible resource for clinicians and academicians. The authors are to be commended on this excellent body of work and their ability to describe it with such thoroughness and detail." --Heidi Resnick, PhD, Associate Professor, National Crime Victims Research and Treatment Center, Medical University of South Carolina "Written by internationally acknowledged experts in research and practice, this excellent book provides clear, step-by-step guidance in how to plan and implement an empirically validated treatment for rape trauma. It is essential reading for trauma researchers and clinicians." --David M. Clark, PhD, Professor of Psychiatry, University of Oxford, Warneford Hospital "This book is at once both scholarly and practical. It blends state-of-the-art scientific information about the nature of traumatic reactions with practical clinical guidelines for conducting cognitive-behavioral therapy with rape victims. The step-by-step instructions for conducting individual exposure therapy are especially well-formulated. This is certainly the book I will use in my graduate school teaching and for guiding my own treatment efforts with rape victims. The book is outstanding!" --David W. Foy, PhD, Professor of Psychology, Graduate School, Education and Psychology, Pepperdine University

"This volume exemplifies manualized treatment. The authors not only present a core set of interventions in detail but also reference a range of assessment techniques and include a structured, comprehensive evaluation....In addition, they give detailed outlines of treatment on a session-by-session basis....They include extensive case material as well as a number of useful handouts....Given the authors' empirical grounding, clear thinking, lucid writing, and extensive clinical experience, this volume should be of great value to any therapist who is treating PTSD-regardless of theoretical bent. There is no more straightforward, empirically based approach to treating psychological trauma." --Bulletin of the Menninger Clinic "This is an impressive book which combines detailed clinical information about the nature of post-trauma reactions and practical guidelines on carrying out cognitive-behavioral treatment with rape victims....This is an excellent treatment manual not only for professionals involved with rape victims; the therapeutic approach described is appropriate for other trauma victims as well." --British Journal of Psychiatry "The authors succeed in their aims to describe PTSD, review the research on treatment, and describe a program for recovery. In addition, Treating the Trauma of Rape is imbued with the sense of compassion that they bring to the individuals they treat. This book will be particularly useful to psychologists, psychiatrists, crisis workers, social workers, and others who respond to victims of violence....[The authors] succeed in helping all of us who work with victims of trauma develop a treatment approach that we can use not only to understand our patients' suffering but also to teach them that recovery can and does occur." --Psychiatric Services "[An] invaluable book...written by two internationally known experts in the field of PTSD treatment....This book is an excellent training tool for both experienced and novice therapists, with such useful features as detailed session plans, compelling case examples, treatment and component rationales, and sample client handouts. Psychotherapy researchers, especially those studying trauma and PTSD, will benefit....The clarity of writing on theory and practice facilitate the translation of the work into specific hypotheses, with identifiable mechanisms of change and process outcomes....For clinicians and researchers alike, this book is an outstanding resource." --Psychotherapy Research "The strength of this book is that over half of it is devoted to the step-by-step guides to treatment....sex and marital therapists who sometimes have to deal with clients with a history of rape or other sexual assault will find this book a handy guide." --Sexual & Marital Therapy "This is difficult and stressful work and the authors are to be congratulated on their endurance and valuable achievements." --Behaviour Research & Therapy "Although Foa and Rothbaum are known above all for their achievements as researchers, their book also displays the compassion and refined sensitivity that are hallmarks of accomplished clinicians....[This] is a work that practitioners will find to be a useful guide for treating the effects of a broad range of traumatic incidents beyond rape itself. It contains coverage of a spectrum of cognitive-behavioral interventions for PTSD at a level of detail that is not readily available elsewhere. This book should unquestionably, therefore, be part of the personal reference library of any practitioner who regularly treats clients with a diagnosis of PTSD." --Psychotherapy in Private Practice "Foa and Rothbaum supply guides for implementing a program that can be tailored to individual clients' needs....Concise and comprehensive, the book will be useful to both novice and experienced therapist; it would also be a great training text, as well as
