This book is an accessible and comprehensive guide to the theory
and practice of short-term treatment. It opens with a chapter on
the theoretical foundations of the method before leading to its
practical applications in clinical practice. It is highly
recommended for all mental health professionals.Traditionally,
psychoanalytic treatment has been a lengthy endeavour, requiring a
long-term commitment from patient and analyst, as well as vast
financial resources. More recently, short-term approaches to
psychoanalytic treatment have proliferated. One of the most
well-known and thoroughly-studied is the groundbreaking method of
Intensive Short term Dynamic Psychotherapy, developed by Dr Habib
Davanloo. Having trained directly with Dr Davanloo, the author has
written a clear, concise outline of the method that has come to be
regarded as a classic in the field. The book is organized in a
systematic fashion, analogous to the process of the therapy itself,
from initial contact through to termination and follow-up. Detailed
clinical examples are presented throughout the text to illustrate
how theory is translated into techniques of unparalleled power and
effectiveness.(Previously published 1996 by John Wiley & Sons
