AbstractResponding to growing interest among psychotherapists of all theoretical orientations, this practical book provides a comprehensive introduction to mindfulness and its contemporary clinical applications. Within a coherent conceptual framework, chapters present a range of clear-cut procedures for practicing mindfulness techniques and teaching them to patients. The editors and authors-most of whom have been practicing both mindfulness and psychotherapy for at least two decades-skillfully blend clinical wisdom, research findings, attention to the spiritual roots of mindfulness, and personal reflections on the therapist's craft. The resulting volume is an essential resource for anyone interested in meditation and other scientifically grounded approaches to augmenting psychotherapy.
Part I offers a concise, clinically oriented introduction to mindfulness meditation and Buddhist psychology, exploring their connections to contemporary psychotherapeutic theory and practice. Chapters in Part II shine a spotlight on the therapeutic relationship, showing how cultivating mindfulness can increase acceptance and empathy and give patients-and therapists-a new sense of emotional freedom. Part III then details innovative applications for specific problems and populations. Bringing their approaches to life with vivid case examples, contributors show how mindfulness can give the clinician additional traction in understanding and treating depression, anxiety disorders, and chronic pain. Also included is a special chapter on working with children. Following a review of relevant clinical research, Part IV outlines the historical underpinnings of mindfulness and looks ahead to the future of this fast-growing and immensely promising field.
Designed for maximum accessibility for therapists of any orientation-including those without any background in mindfulness-this book provides powerful insights and tools for clinical psychologists, psychiatrists, clinical social workers, couple and family therapists, and pastoral counselors, as well as researchers in these areas. It will serve as a uniquely informative text in advanced undergraduate- or graduate-level courses.
