Editorial Reviews
Review
"Ellen Frank's manual is an important contribution to the treatment of bipolar disorder. It clearly articulates the nature of the illness, how best to conceptualize the role of psychotherapy in a condition whose origins and treatments are primarily biological, how to assess the goals of therapy for an individual patient, and the specifics of utilizing IPSRT. This book is a welcome addition to the field."--Kay Redfield Jamison, PhD, Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, Johns Hopkins School of Medicine
"In easy-to-read prose, Ellen Frank explains interpersonal and social rhythm therapy, a new psychosocial intervention for bipolar disorder. Based on her groundbreaking work on the role of sleep-wake cycle disturbances in the onset of mania, Dr. Frank explains how stabilizing people's daily routines can enhance mood stability and interpersonal functioning. She provides step-by-step methods for addressing interpersonal problems associated with the illness, such that clinicians will be well on their way to using the treatment even with their most severely ill patients. The case studies are highly illustrative of the complexities of treating this debilitating illness. There is much wisdom in this book for clinicians and researchers."--David J. Miklowitz, PhD, Department of Psychology, University of Colorado, Boulder
"Using a creative combination of techniques, Dr. Frank provides a structure that will allow clinicians to intervene more helpfully with patients with bipolar disorder. A well-written and scientific description of the illness forms the basis for the provision of clear strategies for coping with it more effectively. Rich case examples demonstrate an empathic understanding of the illness and its devastating impact on patients and families. Clinicians working with this population should find this readable, pragmatic book an essential addition to their professional libraries."--Carol M. Anderson, MSW, PhD, Department of Psychiatry, University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine

"In addition to offering a concise description of the ins and outs of IPSRT, this book is packed with clinical lore from a clinician who has treated bipolar patients for decades....Her explanations are clear, and she shares a variety of case examples that enrich the topics covered....This is an excellent book for clinicians who treat individuals with bipolar disorder or for those hoping to learn from an expert how to begin."--APA PsycCRITIQUES
"This book provides a thorough introduction to a new approach in treatment of a very complicated illness. The book clearly develops the theoretical foundation and the implementation of the intervention, providing useful strategies for the treatment of bipolar disorder."--Doody's Review Service

"The writing throughout the volume is cogent, coherent, and comprehensive....The Appendices and Index are particularly useful. Dr. Frank includes all of the relevant forms, including the Social Rhythm metric and the monitoring charts used in the bipolar research clinics. An excellent guide to bipolar resources is made available to the patient and clinician....Residents, who are interested in learning an organized longitudinal approach to bipolar disorder and its
managment, will benefit greatly from reading this volume. The work is particularly useful for non-psychiatric clinicians who treat individuals with bipolar disorder in collaboration with a psychiatrist. Dr. Frank's systematic approach is recommended to every practicing psychiatrist committed to holistic care of patients with bipolar disorder. The author's passion and commitment to the patient with bipolar disorder and their loved ones are evident throughout this well-conceived model of care."--Psychological Medicine
"Valuable to clinicians with varied levels of expertise....Useful for seasoned practitioners who wish to expand their repertoire of treatment skills for bipolar disorder to stabilization of social rhythms."--Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Book Reviews
"This book is a welcome and needed contribution for treatment of one of the most challenging mental disorders....Ellen Frank's groundbreaking work in disruption of circadian rhythms now offers all those who work with bipolar illness an evidence-based psychological therapy. It is a strongly recommended read for prescribers and therapists and a must read for graduate students or new graduates beginning practice since case studies are used for illustration of therapeutic concepts. Its easy-to-read prose also permits patients and family members to gain essential knowledge."--Bulletin of the Menninger Clinic

"The book is well written and laced with a number of case studies. The descriptive cases demonstrate that, instead of a 'one size fits all' therapy, the treatment is customised to each patient's individual needs. Though primarily aimed at clinicians I would also recommend this manual to other members of the multidisciplinary team who come into contact with this debilitating illness."--International Review of Psychiatry
Product Description
This innovative manual presents a powerful approach for helping people manage bipolar illness and protect against the recurrence of manic or depressive episodes. Interpersonal and social rhythm therapy focuses on stabilizing moods by improving medication adherence, building coping skills and relationship satisfaction, and shoring up the regularity of daily rhythms or routines. Each phase of this flexible, evidence-based treatment is vividly detailed, from screening, assessment, and case conceptualization through acute therapy, maintenance treatment, and periodic booster sessions. Among the special features are reproducible assessment tools and a chapter on how to overcome specific treatment challenges.
