 "Caring for people who harm themselves is hard work. This excellent collection of papers, ably edited by Anna Motz, will help those of us who do this difficult work to do it better." - Dr Gwen Adshead, Consultant Forensic Psychotherapist, Broadmoor Hospital. "This book is a welcome antidote to the powerful tendency to see self-harm only as a behaviour that must be stopped, usually because of the feelings the action evokes in others. The authors' exploration of the meaning and communication behind the act offers those that treat or care for people who self-harm a greater understanding on which to base their responses and build a therapeutic approach. The work is based on the words of those that self-harm, as well as theory, the clinical material of experienced clinicians, and research and should go a long way to improving the services offered to those that self-harm." - Dr Diana Menzies, Consultant Psychiatrist in Psychotherapy, Henderson Hospital Therapeutic Community. | |
