Life-Changing Clinical Experiences

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

In this amazing volume, Tales from Family Therapy: Life-Changing Clinical Experiences, psychologists, psychotherapists, and marriage and family counselors come together to share their unique experiences in therapy sessions and how they've learned that often the clients know more than they do! As you will see, and as these therapists reveal, sometimes all the top-notch and most innovative theories in the world won't help a client in distress. This book isn't just about therapists learning a lesson or two from their clients, however. It's about compassion, healing, being taken by surprise, thinking on your toes, and encouraging people to believe in their strengthsnot just their weaknesses.
