Product Description

This practical book on working with multiple personality disorder demystifies MPD and redefines it as a creative and sensible way of surviving a childhood of extreme trauma and absolute powerlessness. Using Judy Kessler's own story as an example, and referring to work by Virginia Satir, Erik Erikson and Gestalt, the authors address the complex results of this survival skill and the challenges that MPD clients and their therapists face in reintegrating the shattered self.
