Great chapter - and I’d recommend the book it’s in too 🙄. Lots of helpful guidance for working with traumatic stress reactions using CBT

Mapping broader complexity in order to decide what not to focus on and avoid ‘pinball treatment’ that jumps around. This is an extra reflective layer for therapists, not in place of a disorder specific model. #StephenBarton #Babcp2024 #CBTworks

At BABCP 2024, we were part of a symposium celebrating the life, work and influence of Hannah Murry who was an extremely important figure for tCBT and many CBT therapists. We have launched an annual award to remember her values and influence.

Controlling for genetic and environmental confounding, study revealed 21-41% of mental health conditions in Australia are attributable to child maltreatment. Over 1.8 million cases & 184,000 DALYs could be prevented if child maltreatment was eliminated. ja.ma/4cyHAij

10/ The study suggests that expressive writing is particularly effective for patients with high dissociation, helping them reintegrate their identity into their narrative. Those who depersonalize seem to benefit the most from this approach.

"Changes to the DSM-5 definition of trauma may affect our understanding of PTSD as a disease, its underlying mechanisms, and who is most likely to develop or recover from PTSD." Here's what that means for patients. psychologytoday.com/us/blog/scienc…

New paper finds that diagnostic mental health labels (e.g. 'depression') can - increase perception individuals require treatment - increase empathy & support - reduce perceived control people have over their problems & likelihood of recovery journals.plos.org/mentalhealth/a…

Time to treat the trauma first in Borderline Personality Disorder with comorbid PTSD? This thesis (individual papers seem to be under review still) seems to suggest that adding DBT does nothing but produce more dropouts… research.vu.nl/en/publication…

Indeed, there is mounting support for the notion that trauma-focused therapy alone is the best treatment approach for personality disorders, and that other "first line treatments" have no additive effects. doi.org/10.1080/200080…

Please note that the evidence for existing (long-term) therapies for personality disorders is very weak, and maybe much weaker than previously thought.
