 This module
accompanies the preceding module, The psychosocial
management of deliberate self-harm: Part 1, in
which the evidence for interventions to reduce the repetition of
self-harm is reviewed.
The following two case studies introduce us to
two patients presenting with a history of deliberate self-harm and
their entrance into psychosocial therapies to reduce the repetition
of these behaviours. We follow them into the early stages of
therapy, accompanying the vignettes with self-test questions, to
illustrate the approaches taken in manual-assisted cognitive
behavioural therapy (MACT) and dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT).
These case studies complement the theoretical framework and
evidence base outlined in The psychosocial management of
deliberate self-harm: Part 1 and illustrate the use
of psychosocial interventions in practice.
