Time-conscious Psychological Therapy - A Life Stage to Go Through (Hardcover)

Counselors and psychotherapists are divided about the morality and efficacy of short-term psychotherapy and counseling. This book offers a way through the controversy by giving back the central position to consumers of psychotherapy.
The model of therapy described "Time-Conscious Psychological Therapy" is based on flexible adjustment to the life pattern of the individual client's development. It shows how a carefully structured, stage-based series of therapeutic relationships can be rewarding for both client and therapist. At each stage a clearly stated two-way commitment is entered into by both parties in which the length of time and breadth of focus are related and mutually agreed upon. The process is likely to involve a series of therapeutic encounters with different counselors and psychotherapists and is adaptable to the client's particular needs at any one time. Illustrated throughout by case examples, this is a book for practitioners of all psychological therapies who are looking for a rigorous but flexible approach to empowering their clients.
