Opis

(Texts in Hebrew, with three texts in English) --- This book contains case studies of the psychological treatment of ultra-orthodox patients. Presenting problems treated include social phobia, religiosity, and obsessive-compulsive, eating and conduct disorders, amongst others. The appendix contains three articles in English which include a description of the unorthodox treatment of an ultra-orthodox adolescent, guidelines in the treatment of haredi patients and a discussion of the sensitive and controversial issue of cross-gender therapy with haredi and religious patients --- The editors are hopeful that this slim volume will pave the way for haredi rabbis, seminary heads and arbiters to greater appreciation of the value and benefits of psychological treatment for people suffering from emotional, psychological and behavioral difficulties and disturbances. (From the preface) --- "This slim book describes the unique psychological problems and issues presented by haredi patients and the unique considerations and challenges that face the therapist in treating them. Included are descriptions of unorthodox and creative treatment interventions demonstrating the need to at times 'to think outside the box'. I believe that mental health practitioners that are involved in treating religious and ultra-orthodox clientele and even those not involved, will find this book an interesting, informative and a worthwhile read."

We thank the editors for including in the book controversial and challenging topics as cross-gender therapy with religious and ultra-orthodox patients and involvement of rabbis in psychological treatment, and case studies involving original and creative treatment interventions."
