management are integrated throughout the text with a special
section also devoted to these issues and strategies. The last
section features 26 niche practices in which expert practitioners
describe their special area of practice and discuss important
issues and aspects of their specialty practice. These areas include
assessment and evaluation, specialized psychotherapy services,
working with unique populations of clients, and more. Whether read

when a question or challenge arises, this book is full of practical
guidance directly geared to psychologists, counselors, social
workers, and marriage and family therapists in independent

applying this model across most patients and contexts. Use a

from a particular disorder. Draw on research evidence to
administer psychotherapy in a way that can include, but also
transcend, specific theoretical. orientations and disorder-specific
interventions. Generate data and draw on varied forms of research
psychotherapy in a participant-driven and contextually responsive
manner. These chapters represent the latest thinking and evidence
on the most relevant topics across the "big four" psychotherapy
domains of theory, research, practice, and training. All four parts
are written for researchers, practitioners, scholars, and trainers,
with the major difference among the sections being their emphasis
on, and order of, discussing the "big four" elements.
