Most effective model of integrative treatment of anxiety, February 10, 2007
This review is from: Understanding and Treating Anxiety Disorders: An Integrative Approach to Healing the Wounded Self (Hardcover)
I HIGHLY recommend this book to anyone treating or researching anxiety disorders. Wolfe provides an excellent method of addressing anxiety through the integration of cognitive, cognitive behavioral, and psychodynamic techniques. He offers the expertise of his extensive career in research, academia, and clinical treatment in an extraordinarily prosocial manner: it is clear that Dr. Wolfe has developed a method of treatment for anxiety and would like clinicians and patients alike to benefit from his discoveries. This book will help you develop a more comprehensive understanding of your patients and provide an outline for effective holistic treatment. I can tell you from personal experience that once you apply Wolfe's model in clinical practice, all previous conceptualizations will seem superficial, at best. It is a MUST-HAVE for students or clinicians dealing with, assessing, or treating anxiety disorders, however the application of Wolfe's model does require previous understanding of cognitive behavioral and psychodynamic theory.
