OverviewThis unique book offers an invaluable introduction to the core concepts and skills required in conducting brief psychotherapy. Unlike other references, which attempt to review all of the literature pertinent to short-term treatment or to cover all of the many schools of brief therapy in current use, this compact work-another immediately useful offering in the Core Competencies in Psychotherapy series-is brimming with practical guidance on what to do in the therapy room.The contributing authors, all of them experienced educators intimately involved in teaching and training psychiatry residents and clinical psychology predoctoral interns in the practice of the brief psychotherapies, address six key models of brief psychotherapy that have garnered empirical support in the research literature: cognitive, behavioral, solution-focused, interpersonal, time-limited dynamic, and couple therapies. Additional topics covered include ingredients of successful short-term therapy, conducting brief psychotherapy in a multicultural context, combining brief therapy with medication treatment, and evaluating competence in brief psychotherapy. In the opening and closing sections of the book, the editors supplement the how-to expertise provided by the chapter authors by highlighting and synthesizing the common themes behind these chapters, furnishing readers with overarching principles and techniques to draw upon in their own practices.Fully indexed, this remarkable volume is destined to become the definitive guide to acquiring competency in the practice of brief psychotherapy (as mandated by the residency review committee), bringing to life the fascinating and challenging world of this modality for students, residents, and practitioners everywhere.
