Current psychotherapies

CURRENT PSYCHOTHERAPIES, 11th Edition, helps students learn, compare and apply all major systems of psychotherapy in a way that's meaningful to their classroom experience and their own practice. Used in top Counseling, Psychology and Social Work programs, the book features an outstanding group of contributors-each of whom is either an originator or a leading proponent of one of the systems. These distinguished figures include Albert Ellis, Carl Rogers, Aaron Beck, Martin Seligman, John Norcross, Larry Beutler and Irvin Yalom. Each contributor presents the basic principles of a system, including how it compares with other systems. A case example in every theory chapter guides students through the problem, evaluation, treatment and follow-up process.
