Therapeutic Assessment and Interpersonal Neurobiology shows how
collaborative assessment can function as a potent therapeutic intervention—
reducing shame, strengthening epistemic trust, and catalyzing meaningful
change.
Integrating research on affect regulation, memory reconsolidation, and
intersubjectivity with richly detailed case examples, the book demonstrates how
psychological tests can be used not only to understand clients but to help them
experience themselves differently. The author highlights common traps that
therapists fall into and provides strategies for them to improve their practical
skills and enhance the course of treatment to transform clients’ lives. The
book emphasizes the importance of client collaboration, secure attachment,
mentalization, addressing shame, and epistemic trust during psychological
interventions. Bridging psychological assessment and modern psychotherapy,
this volume provides assessment professionals and trainees with a rigorous,
humane, and clinically actionable framework for using tests as instruments of
psychological healing.
As a sequel to his influential book, In Our Clients’ Shoes: Theory and
Techniques of Therapeutic Assessment, the author offers a renewed and
transformative vision of psychological assessment grounded in contemporary
neuroscience, attachment theory, and decades of clinical practice. This is an
invaluable resource for psychologists, particularly those who use the MMPI-2,
MMPI-3, Rorschach, AAP, and EMP.
