Recenzje

'This book is a must-have for clinicians who work with individuals struggling with Body-Focused Repetitive Behaviors (BFRBs). It includes a treasure trove information, including historical background, general overview, current treatment approaches, theoretical underpinnings, and (most importantly) how to apply the gold standard for the treatment of these afflictions: The Comprehensive Behavioral (ComB) Treatment for BFRBs. The authors skilfully walk the reader through the process of assessment and treatment by using the ComB model to show how to build a flexible foundation tailored to each clients' needs, and how to refine the plan as therapy progresses or if it gets stalled. They also make excellent use of case examples and dialogs to bring the process to life, especially when sensitive or difficult issues need to be broached. Congratulations to Charles Mansueto, Ruth Golomb, and Suzanne Mouton-Odum! Their new book will provide invaluable support to therapists as they guide their clients towards recovery.' Sherrie M. Vavrichek, LCSW-C, Senior Clinician, Behavior Therapy Center of Greater Washington, White Oak, Maryland
