Practical Resources for the Mental Health Professional,
Description
This book is both a set of procedures for the therapist and a philosophy? one that is shared with clients and one that guides the work
of the therapist. This second edition continues its excellence in offering clinicians a guide to doing what works in brief therapy-
for whom, and when and how to use it. Psychotherapy that follows these guidelines validates the client's most important concerns – and
it often turns out to be surprisingly brief. Author, Ellen Quick integrates strategic and solution focused therapy and includes guidelines
for tailoring technique and interventions to client characteristics and preferences. With clinically rich examples throughout, this book
offers applications for couples, including indications for individual or conjoint sessions.
Audience
Practicing Clinicians, and students and professors in psychological counseling and psychotherapy.
