Using information from current research and case studies and techniques from her over thirty years as a clinical psychologist, Gamsa makes a strong case for psychotherapy being a \"dance\" with the client: once the therapist masters the dance steps (theory-based practices), they can improvise and respond to the leads provided by their partner (client). \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTo support this \"dance\", The Art of Psychotherapy covers important topics such as communication skills, building a therapeutic alliance, and understanding a client's defences. In addition, this guide offers useful tools such as templates for an initial assessment and tracking therapy goals, as well as specific examples of imagery that can be used in therapy to better connect with the client. Both insightful and practical, this book is a powerful resource for psychologists in training, new therapists beginning their practice, and the more experienced therapist looking to fine tune their skills and optimize their practice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 90\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.38 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e December 09, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44246278373427,"sku":"9781038311412","price":84.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0693\/2191\/6467\/files\/7XTjB-Ttyj9781038311412.webp?v=1777667464","url":"https:\/\/thereadinghousebookcompany.com\/products\/art-of-psychotherapy-a-clinical-psychologists-guide-hardcover","provider":"The Reading House Book Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
