"These eminently worthwhile handouts are not only based on some of the finest scholarship available today, they're also unusually accessible to the lay person. This is a resource I expect to draw upon again and again with my clients."
-Leon F. Seltzer, PhD author of Paradoxical Strategies in Psychotherapy

Many therapists provide psycho-educational information and recommend helpful literature to their clients as a means of promoting growth and change in between sessions. This unique sourcebook provides a comprehensive collection of over 100 concise, informative handouts for distribution to your current or prospective clients.

Organized around the topics of relationship dynamics and specific disorders, these sensitively written handouts offer clients valuable information about common psychological problems, as well as practical, therapeutically sound advice on strategies for changing behaviors or interactional patterns. The user-friendly design allows you to easily photocopy the handouts you are most likely to use or customize them to your needs using the included disk-saving you precious time in the office and maximizing the full potential of the material.

This remarkable resource features:
* Preliminary assessment tools to help clients partner with therapists in targeting problem areas and identifying pertinent diagnoses
* Review sheets for behavior strategies that change problems and help therapists design treatment programs
* Discussion sheets for spouses, parents, and family members that promote communication
* Visual aids that explain problems at a glance


Brief Therapy Client Handouts helps you reinforce and validate ideas presented in therapy and comfort your clients during those lonely, anxious times in between sessions.

Super Handy Book

This book is super handy for groups or at a moment when feeling stuck! Great for psychoeducational purposes as well!

Very Useful!

This book, which wisely includes a C.D. is great because you can give your client a piece of paper they can really use concerning the chosen treatment and hopeful outcome that was just covered in the session. It is concise and very well written.

ONE OF THE MOST USEFUL AND USED BOOKS FOR CLIENT EDUCATION

In 30 years of psychotherapy practice,I have used handouts from this book more than any other source. Many clients like these handouts because they are short and give an overview of the topic.They are not in depth guides,however.This is one of the few books worth several times its cost.

I love this book

In my many years of practice I've never seen anything to compare with this book. It contains extremely well-researched information in a form which clients will find easy to read and utilize as a part of therapy. I was impressed with the visual aids, assessment questionnaires and progress charts to help clients understand their problems and set up programs for change.The range of problems covered in this book is so comprehensive that I've been able to find at least one helpful handout for each of my clients. I find the disk format especially helpful. I'm able to quickly print exactly what I want, and I can personalize the handouts any way I like. I have found that my clients develop a better understanding of their problems and begin to work on change more quickly when I give them these handouts at the beginning of therapy. I think this is a wonderful resource for both therapist and client!

I wish my therapist had this book!

I've always been dismayed that few therapists provide "homework" or food for thought in between sessions. The handouts in this book are terrific for helping clients help themselves. Written in simple, readable language, with easy-to-follow charts and exercizes, this is a book that no therapist should be without
