Challenging problems
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
I really liked this book written by one of the best known cognitive therapists in the country. . . .perhaps only her father is a better known cognitive therapist. It is very beneficial to read how Dr. J. Beck approaches challenging problems that arise during therapy. The case examples she gives can give a therapist insight into haow a master therapist works. Although I liked virtually everything in the book, I particularly liked the chapter on dealing with problems that patients with axis II disorders present. The author also identifies some typical therapist reactions to the challenging problems that some clients exhibit. I will kepp this book as a reference for a very long time
Excelent handbook for practitioners
