Overview

The Therapist’s Notebook for Supervision and Training provides detailed activities and exercises designed to help students and practicing therapists improve their clinical effectiveness and performance. The book is divided into three parts, including ""Structuring and Organizing the Therapeutic Encounter,"" and contains a total of thirty-seven adaptable activities. Each activity is specifically designed both to introduce students and practicing clinicians to the most current research around clinical effectiveness and apply that information to various populations and settings. Unlike other books which incorporate activities and exercises, the activities in this volume are interconnected, and earlier exercises serve as building blocks to later ones. Replete with extensive and practical guidance, this book is essential for those seeking to expand their therapeutic practice and improve client outcomes, whether as a student, clinician, or supervisor.
