This practical resource provides an evidence-based framework for
treating clients struggling with perfectionism, whether as the main
presenting problem or in conjunction with depression, eating disorders,
anxiety disorders, or obsessive-compulsive disorder. Using a case
formulation approach, the authors draw on their extensive
cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) experience to present specific
techniques and interventions. Coverage spans treatment planning, the
therapeutic alliance, key obstacles that may arise, relapse prevention,
and emerging research. Reproducible assessment scales and 36 patient
handouts are included; purchasers get access to a Web page where they
can download and print the reproducible materials in a convenient 8 1/2"
x 11" size.
