The Haunted Self: Structural Dissociation and the Treatment of Chronic Traumatization by Onno van der Hart, Ellert R. S. Nijenhuis, and Kathy Steele
Book must be purchased or acquired separately
Based on the theory of structural dissociation of the personality in combination with a Janetian psychology of action, the authors have developed a model of phase-oriented treatment that focuses on the identification and treatment of structural dissociation and related maladaptive mental and behavioral actions.
Endorsements for The Haunted Self
“A brilliant book – the authors deserve our congratulations for grappling with some of the most complex and perplexing phenomena that psychotherapists are likely to encounter. In an intellectual tour de force, the authors provide a unifying theory that identifies a disturbance of the self as the core problem for the whole spectrum of trauma-related disorders. This theory is in turn closely linked to a highly sophisticated understanding of assessment and treatment. No trauma therapist will fail to benefit from the authors’ collective insights and wisdom.” —Chris R. Brewin, Professor of Clinical psychology, University College London
“The Haunted Self gives clinicians a new perspective on the work that Pierre Janet completed nearly 100 years ago. The theory and clinical application of structural dissociation and the Janetian psychology of action proposed in this book by Van der Hart, Nijenhuis and Steele, and their integration with contemporary findings from the affective neurosciences and attachment/developmental and relational literature offer clinicians a new way to understand and treat individuals who suffered chronic traumatization during childhood. It also brings dissociation to the fore as an expectable and common reaction in traumatized children. A thought-provoking work. I highly recommend it.” —Christine A. Courtois, Ph.D., cofounder, The Center: Posttraumatic Disorders Program, The Psychiatric Institute of Washington, Washington, DC
“After 100 years of descriptions, we are now beginning to understand what dissociation says about our mind, and how to treat it. This book is a brilliant and highly accessible account of this most fundamental concept of modern day psychiatry and psychotherapy.” —David Servan-Schreiber, MD, PHD – Clinical Professor of Psychiatry, University of Pittsburgh – Author of Healing Without Freud or Prozac and The Instinct to Heal
“Onno van der Hart, Ellert Nijenhuis, and Kathy Steele have produced a landmark contribution to the study of trauma, and an instant classic in the study of dissociation and dissociative disorders. Constructive, lucid, easy to read, and constantly thought-provoking, this remarkable book brings together the classic observations and ideas of Pierre Janet, modern trauma and dissociation theory, and the cutting-edge findings of contemporary neuroscience to explicate and explore the authors’ structural dissociation paradigm. Furthermore, it brings together most of Van der Hart’s monumental efforts to apply Janetian concepts to the contemporary treatment of trauma and dissociation, a significant achievement in itself. Readers need not embrace the structural dissociation model to enjoy and emerge enriched by the clinical insights and therapeutic wisdom of The Haunted Self.” —Richard P. Kluft, M.D., Temple University School of Medicine
“What an exceptional book! The step-wise didactic clarity and innovative content of The Haunted Self alone would suffice to justify making the book required reading material for all health professionals encountering trauma victims. However, it is also a remarkably thrilling reading experience, reminiscent of the “haunted-house” stories of my youth. One finds oneself led to familiar areas through “hidden stairways” and suddenly comes to perceive and comprehend things from unexpected angles. There is a refreshing undercurrent of humility to the book – the reader feels encouraged to examine and comment freely. Without seeking to replace or compete with other trauma theories or treatment modalities, the authors present an over-arching and unifying conceptual approach to comprehending the psycho-biological underpinnings of a highly variable and challenging population of patients, who quite commonly present with a complex and confusing array of atypical and changeable clinical and therapeutic issues, only partly addressed by current diagnostic criteria and treatment guidelines. The structural conception of dissociation enhances ones understanding not only of PTSD and Complex PTSD, Dissociative Identity Disorder and cases of severe protracted physical and sexual abuse, but clarifies the contribution of trauma to Borderline Personality Disorder, Somatoform Disorders and certain physical syndromes characteristically associated with emotional trauma and stress.” –Dr Mike Matar, MD (Psych)
