Omschrijving

Presents a model of health anxiety and hypochondriasis grounded in the clinical science and that incorporates physiological, cognitive, and behavioral processes. This book integrates strategies for dealing with resistance to treatment, psychoeducation, cognitive therapy, and behavioral therapy (exposure and response prevention).

"In this creative and enlightening treatise the authors expand the concept of hypochondriasis (literally the region below the ribs from whence many unexplained physical symptoms emerge) to a comprehensive exposition of health anxiety. Here, new conceptualizations of somatic concerns in patients with persistent medically unexplained (or undiagnosed) physical symptoms are presented, and the authors outline state of the art procedures for assessing, formulating, and treating individuals with disabling health anxiety. Every clinician who confronts health related fears and worries should be aware of the latest information in this book.A"David H. Barlow, PhD, Professor of Psychology and Psychiatry, Founder, and Director Emeritus, Center for Anxiety and Related Disorders at Boston UniversityA"This book is both scholarly and highly practical in its approach to the management of health anxiety. I highly recommend it to any clinician, student, or researchers with an interest in health anxiety. It is the most comprehensive book I have seen on this topic.A"Martin M. Antony, PhD, ABPP, Professor and Director of Graduate Training, Department of Psychology, Ryerson University, Toronto, Canada Abramowitz and Braddock's text will be welcomed at a prime location on my desk and recommended as a must read for my students. The reason is simple enough: It provides a clearly written, broad, and detailed view of a domain of human behavior that complements our work on self-management of diagnosed chronic illnesses. It also raises a set of critical questions as to what differentiates and sustains the anxiety and behavior surrounding symptoms of medically unexplained conditions, that is, symptoms that do not fit the medical practitioners' schemata and merit a diagnosis versus the worries and behaviors engaged in by individuals who are managing symptoms that have been medically diagnosed. Howard Leventhal, PsycCRITIQUES, Vol. 54 (16), April 22, 2009
