RB127
This 11th volume in the publisher's series "Advances in
Psychotherapy; Evidence-Based Practice" was written by professors
of anesthesiology and psychiatry (Field) and pain management (Swarm), at
the Washington U. School of Medicine, St. Louis. This instructional text
provides therapists with practical, evidence-based guidance to treat
chronic pain through a patient-focused, integrated approach that relies
heavily on self-care. Tables and sidebars complement clearly structured
presentations of evaluation and treatment procedures, including theories
and models of chronic pain disorder, as well as diagnosis and treatment
indications. An appendix of tools and resources includes a detailed
evaluation questionnaire for patients.
