The Suicidal Person
"proposed book takes a new look at suicide and its treatment. He contends that suicide is not a symptom of a mental disorder, but an action taken by an individual who is in an acute state of extreme emotional pain and distress.

The Attempted Suicide Short Intervention Program (ASSIP) uses just three sessions to address the very personal experiences and needs of people experiencing suicidal ideation or urges. A central tenet of Michel's program and book is that under high levels of emotio...

After one of his first patients died by suicide, Michel devoted himself to researching self-harm. Writing vividly and personally, he recounts more than forty years of working with and learning from suicidal patients. Michel shows that suicide is not just a consequence of mental illness but an action related to a person’s life story.

Building a Therapeutic Alliance with the Suicidal Patient
The quality of the therapeutic alliance is a well-established factor for successful therapy. With suicidal patients, a strong therapeutic alliance can quite literally save a person's life. In this book, an elite group of clinicians and researchers explore what has become known as the Aeschi approach to clinical suicide prevention. According to this view, mental health professionals must recognize a fundamental conflict at the heart of good clinical practice: While they are experts in the assessment and treatment of mental health disorders, when it comes to the patient's suicidal story, the patient is the expert. Successful interventions with suicidal patients must therefore be empathic and h...
Exploring in Security
Winner of the 2010 Goethe Award for Psychoanalytic and Psychodynamic Scholarship! This book builds a key clinical bridge between attachment theory and psychoanalysis, deploying Holmes' unique capacity to weld empirical evidence, psychoanalytic theory and consulting room experience into a coherent and convincing whole. Starting from the theory–practice gap in psychoanalytic psychotherapy, the book demonstrates how attachment theory can help practitioners better understand what they intuitively do in the consulting room, how this benefits clients, and informs evidence-based practice. Divided into two sections, theory and practice, Exploring in Security discusses the concept of mentalising an...
