Synopsis
This book concentrates on two issues which are of central concern to theories of personality and to practising psychologists: the development of psychological disorders and their effective treatment. Duncan Cramer introduces the main approaches to personality and the practice of psychotherapy, outlining their main assumptions, and evaluating them both theoretically and empirically. He explores how personality theories inform therapeutic methods and vice versa, and asks which theories of personality help in the explanation and treatment of disorders, which therapeutic methods work and how far are they the product of a personality theory? He analyses how theories of personality and psychotherapy have been tested, evaluates and summarizes the findings and suggests future directions.
Personality and Psychotherapy brings together these two fields, shows how they are closely related, and how it is fruitful to study them together.
