Description
Dryden's Handbook of Individual Therapy is now a classic text for trainees in counselling and psychotherapy. This newly updated fifth edition presents a comprehensive overview of the key approaches to individual therapy practice, including three new chapters on narrative therapy, solution-focused therapy and integrative and eclectic approaches.
Written by experts in their own therapeutic fields, the book introduces the principles and methods of individual therapy concisely and accessibly. Following a clearly defined structure, each chapter outlines one approach in detail and provides case examples to illustrate how that approach works in practice.
Each form of therapy is described in terms of: its historical context the main theoretical assumptions the mode of practice which clients will benefit most the general strengths and limitations of the approach
Further chapters place counselling and psychotherapy in their social context, explore training and supervision and relate research to individual therapy practice.
