Publisher's Synopsis
"The Handbook of Psychotherapy" provides a comprehensive overview of this expanding area of mental health theory and practice. It offers in one volume a resource of information and reference for all health professionals and anyone interested in psychotherapy as practitioner, patient or general reader. By covering many different aspects of a complex profession under five main headings - the nature of psychotherapy, its culture, modalities, settings and issues - it gives an up-to-date picture of psychotherapy today. The author has also published "Transactional Analysis Psychotherapy: An Integrated Approach" (Routledge, 1992).
