This chapter aims to provide an update on the relation between mental imagery and psychopathology, with particular reference to post-traumatic stress disorder and bipolar affective disorder. Current evidence is provided to give an overview of the strengths and limitations of existing cognitive behavioural therapies for these two psychological disorders. Clinical vignettes are used to illustrate how imagery interventions may be incorporated into cognitive behavioural therapy to enrich the array of treatment strategies and possibly enhance its efficacy.
