Publisher Notes
This book provides in a comprehensive, integrative, analytic, and evaluative overview of the field of planned short-term psychotherapy that will be of great benefit to therapists already in practice. The author considers both clinical and methodological issues pertinent to planned short-term psychotherapy and he examines this emerging field in terms of its health policy implications. Emphasis is placed on actual as well as potential contributions of planned short-term psychotherapy to the field of clinical mental health practice. After describing the history of the field and examining the outcome studies that have evaluated brief psychotherapy, the author introduces and describes 17 different approaches. This is followed by a look at planned short-term psychotherapy in five different clinical settings -- including medical settings and group and family settings. The final two chapters deal with general issues that affect the field.
