Angebote / Angebote:

In recent years, short-term therapies have increasingly gained a following among therapists looking for innovative treatments for patients. At a time in which traditional, open-ended psychotherapy is attacked as costly and inefficient, short-term therapy has naturally found new followers. This collection of essays form an essential reference book for therapists who practice short-term therapy and those considering this form of treatment. The aim of this volume is to provide a way for therapists to consider short-term therapy, evaluate it for individual patients, and plan appropriate courses of treatment. The book is divided into four sections that highlight the characteristic elements of short-term dynamic therapy: brevity, focus, therapist activity, and patient selection. The book features papers by Franz Alexander, S. H. Budman and A. S. Gurman, James Mann, Mardi J. Horowitz, Gerald L. Klerman, Myrna M. Weissman, Bruce Rounsaville, and Eve S. Chevron, Eric Berne, Claude M. Steiner, and John M. Dusay, Thomas E. Schacht, Jeffrey L. Binder, and Hans H. Strupp, George A. Kelly, Aaron T. Beck and Ruth L. Greenberg, Allen Frances and Samuel Perry, Hans H. Strupp, Leston L. Havens, H. Davanloo, Robert Langs, D. M. Malan, P. E. Sifneos, Miguel A. Leibovich, Allen Frances and John F. Clarkin, David H.
