Book Description
Nuestras vidas se entretejen con los comportamientos de otras personas y en general lo que observamos se considera algo real. Pero hay ocasiones en que nuestra experiencia en el contexto de las relaciones interpersonales, de pareja, de familia y sociales pueden parecernos extrañamente irreales, porque no comprendemos la distancia entre lo aparente que captan nuestros sentidos y la verdad de lo que está ocurriendo. Cuando existen esas condiciones es posible que estemos tratando de entender a alguien que sufre un trastorno de la personalidad. Nuestra poca información acerca de estos trastornos nos implica con quienes los padecen y nos causan gran desconcierto y consternación. Los trastornos de la personalidad se consideran como una organización estructurada que manifiesta un patrón disfuncional de la conducta. Son estables a lo largo del tiempo, con defectos de la organización interna, se consideran inflexibles, incapacitan al individuo para funcionar bien y causan un gran sufrimiento a sí mismos y a otros. La vida es particularmente difícil cuando estamos vinculados con alguien amado que no tiene suficiente salud mental ó padece de un trastorno de la personalidad que nos involucra en conductas inestables a lo largo del vivir. En ocasiones es sumamente difícil hallar formas de convivencia con seres que tienen emociones, conductas y acciones extrañas y que su sentido de la realidad es sesgado ó francamente distorsionado, sin poder entender exactamente a que se debe, en especial cuando se trata del Trastorno Límite de la Personalidad. La comprensión de esos eventos de la vida con alguien que padece TLP, requiere darnos cuenta y entender este tipo de trastorno y como incide en la salud mental de los individuos. Los acontecimientos cotidianos con personas que padecen TLP son poco claros y confusos, debido a que tienen modelos de pensamiento basados en procesos deficientes para asignar sentidos a sus experiencias vitales y que resultan en patrones de conducta alteradas. Cuando el TLP se halla fuertemente establecido dentro de sistemas familiares, sus miembros presentan importantes disfunciones de relación entre ellos. Es muy desconcertante observar a una persona que en lo externo es inteligente, capaz, frecuentemente exitosa ó que aparenta serlo pero que internamente se halla en crisis; muchos individuos afectados de TLP invierten una gran cantidad de energía emocional ocultando su trastorno, excepto al interior de sus relaciones de pareja ó familia, hasta que se derrumban y terminan asistiendo a terapias ó internados en un hospital.

Book Description
Los individuos con trastorno límite de la personalidad son el equivalente psicológico a los pacientes con quemaduras de tercer grado. Están emocionalmente en carne viva; incluso el más mínimo roce o movimiento puede crear un inmenso sufrimiento. En los ámbitos de la psiquiatría y la psicología, cuando determinamos un diagnóstico o acuñamos un término, es inevitable que caigamos en generalizaciones y que perdamos de vista lo humano y lo particular. Eso nos lleva a errores de tratamiento que pueden provocar un daño irreparable. En este apasionante libro —que incluye testimonios reales tanto de pacientes como de sus allegados—, Taty Ades y el doctor Eduardo Ferreira Santos abogan por no perder nunca la perspectiva de la experiencia singular y por dar voz a los afectados. Seres humanos aterrados y confundidos que necesitan, sobre todo, ser escuchados. Las raíces de este trastorno suelen estar profundamente enraizadas en la infancia (la negligencia, el maltrato físico y emocional, ser testigo de violencia doméstica, la criminalidad y el abuso de sustancias por parte de los padres, el abuso sexual…). Traumas enterrados que pueden condenar a una vida aparentemente normal, pero lastrada por la vulnerabilidad extrema y el desamparo. Independientemente de la corriente terapéutica que se siga, tirar de ese hilo y conseguir una sana regulación emocional es una tarea delicada que requiere precisión y empatía.

Book Description
What is 'mentalization'? How can this concept be applied to clinical work with children, young people and families? What will help therapists working with children and families to 'keep the mind in mind'? Why does it matter if a parent can 'see themselves from the outside, and their child from the inside'? Minding the Child considers the implications of the concept of mentalization for a range of therapeutic interventions with children and families. Mentalization, and the empirical research which has supported it, now plays a significant role in a range of psychotherapies for adults. In this book we see how these rich ideas about the development of the self and interpersonal relatedness can help to foster the emotional well-being of children and young people in clinical practice and a range of other settings. With contributions from a range of international experts, the three main sections of the book explore: • the concept of mentalization from a theoretical and research perspective • the value of mentalization-based interventions within child mental health services • the application of mentalizing ideas to work in community settings. Minding the Child will be of particular interest to clinicians and those working therapeutically with children and families, but it will also be of interest to academics and students interested in child and adolescent mental health, developmental psychology and the study of social cognition.

Book Description
Diagnosing Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) in young people has long been a tough call for clinicians, either for fear of stigmatizing the child or confusing the normal mood shifts of adolescence with pathology. Now, a recent upsurge in relevant research into early-onset BPD is inspiring the field to move beyond this hesitance toward a developmentally nuanced understanding of the disorder. The Handbook of Borderline Personality Disorder in Children and Adolescents reflects the broad scope and empirical strengths of current research as well as promising advances in treatment. This comprehensive resource is authored by veteran and emerging names across disciplines, including developmental psychopathology, clinical psychology, child psychiatry, genetics and neuroscience in order to organize the field for an integrative future. Leading-edge topics range from the role of parenting in the development of BPD to trait-based versus symptom-based assessment approaches, from the life-course trajectory of BPD to the impact of the DSM-5 on diagnosis. And of particular interest are the data on youth modifications of widely used adult interventions, with session excerpts. Key areas featured in the Handbook: The history of research on BPD in childhood and adolescence. Conceptualization and assessment issues. Etiology and core components of BPD. Developmental course and psychosocial correlates. Empirically supported treatment methods. Implications for future research, assessment and intervention. The Handbook of Borderline Personality Disorder in Children and Adolescents is a breakthrough reference for researchers and clinicians in a wide range of disciplines, including child and school psychology and psychiatry, social work, psychotherapy and counseling, nursing management and research and personality and social psychology.

Book Description
The most common personality disorder here and abroad, borderline personality disorder is often misdiagnosed or underdiagnosed. Left untreated, it causes marked distress and impairment in social, occupational, and role functioning, with high rates of self-destructive behavior (attempted and completed suicide). Its pervasive pattern of impulsivity and instability of interpersonal relationships, affects, and self-image begins in early adulthood and presents in a variety of contexts. Developed primarily by psychiatrists in active clinical practice, the revised edition of this popular work offers an updated synthesis of current scientific knowledge and rational clinical practice for patients with borderline personality disorder--with the important caveat that clinicians should consider, but not limit themselves to, the treatments recommended here. The summary of treatment recommendations is keyed according to the level of confidence with which each recommendation is made and coded to show the nature of its supporting evidence. Highly informative and easy to use, this eminently practical volume is organized into three major parts: Part A contains treatment recommendations (Section I, treatment summaries; Section II, treatment plans; Section III, special clinical considerations; and Section IV, risk management issues during treatment), Part B presents the evidence underlying these treatment recommendations (Section V, an overview of DSM-IV-TR criteria, prevalence rates, and natural history and course; and Section VI, a review of existing treatment literature), and Part C summarizes those areas in which better research data are needed. Remarkably concise and comprehensive, this practice guideline continues to be an indispensable reference for every clinician who treats patients with this heterogeneous and complex disorder.
