Praise for A THERAPIST’S GUIDE TO THE PERSONALITY DISORDERS:
This volume features clear, concise chapters from experts on the Masterson approach (including Masterson) to treating what are often our most challenging clients. In reading it, we are encouraged to think more deeply about the development of who we are and we are also supported in our efforts to apply the concepts in our practices by the inclusion of the workbook questionnaire. Masterson’s seminal contributions have never been made clearer or more relevant.

In this remarkable book, James Masterson offers a concise theoretical overview, informative updating, and extremely practical application of his ongoing work on the etiology and treatment of developmental arrests of the self. Expanding this model, skilled clinicians give vivid case examples of how Masterson’s theories can be clinically implemented in effective treatment of borderline, narcissistic, and schizoid personality disorders.
