  • Title: Psychodynamic treatments of self-injury.
    Author: Levy KN, Yeomans FE, Diamond D.
    Journal: J Clin Psychol; 2007 Nov; 63(11):1105-20. PubMed ID: 17932991.
    Abstract:
    The authors address psychodynamic therapies, particularly transference-focused psychotherapy (TFP), in the treatment of patients who present with non-suicidal self-injury. In doing so, they briefly discuss various psychodynamic approaches with empirical evidence for their effectiveness. They describe TFP, including its treatment rationale, putative change mechanisms, and outcome research. They then present a case illustration of a patient with borderline personality disorder who engages in non-suicidal self-injury to demonstrate how TFP can be applied to such cases.
