Diagnostics of trauma consequential disorders: The key to effective therapy
Traumatic experiences can lead to significant emotional, cognitive and physical impairments that affect daily life. and the quality of life sustainably. This suffering often goes unrecognized as the diverse symptoms are often associated with other psychological or physical illness, while the underlying trauma consequence disorder remains hidden in the background. Only precise diagnostics reveals the different symptoms, allows a clear diagnostic classification and paves the way to effective and sustainable treatment.
This work supports experienced diagnosticians with brilliantly structured and coloured overviews to overlook the variety of diagnostic options to consider or exclude and nothing to overlook.
After an introduction to the “Trauma Dissociation Axis Model” five axes are presented as systematized diagnostics of trauma consequence disorders using case studies, differential diagnoses, recommendations, decision paths and questionnaires based on ICD-11.
New in the third edition: all chapters have been intensively revised to sharpen and deepen terms and concepts along new scientific findings from research and practice, as well as to avoid misunderstandings and mistreatments. New content and focal points have been continuously supplemented and updated.
“… the book gives readers a wealth of clinical details, plastic descriptions and helpful information on the respective areas. The axle structure proposed by Jan Gysi provides a backbone, which places different groups of syndromes in an overall context and comprehensively maps their spectrum. It is consistently oriented to the inter-national diagnostic standard of ICD-11 and thus creates a helpful, descriptive basis for understanding trauma consequence disorders across schools.”
From the introductory word by Prof. Dr. Ingo Schäfer, Hamburg.
