This clinical reference and widely adopted text is recognized as the premier guide to understanding and treating often encountered psychological disorders in adults. Showcasing evidence-based psychotherapy models, the volume addresses essentially the most pressing question asked by students and practitioners–“How do I do it?” Leading authorities present state of the art information on every clinical problem and provide an explanation for the conceptual and empirical bases in their respective therapeutic approaches. Procedures for assessment, case formulation, remedy planning, and intervention are described in detail. Extended case examples with session transcripts illustrate every section of remedy.
