If you were struggling to make peace with your childhood, would you go to a Gestalt therapist or a psychoanalyst? If you were seeking relief from anxiety, would you choose CBT, ACT, or DBT? The world of psychotherapy can be overwhelming, especially when you're choosing between therapies you can't pronounce, acronyms you won't remember, and no obvious pick. Sorting through the differences between modalities can be a time-consuming process. Fortunately, I've done the work for you.
This book is designed to provide you with a comprehensive understanding of different therapy modalities. It breaks them down into their sub-modalities and compares them using simple, consistent criteria. By the end of this book, you will be better equipped to "shop" for therapy. To assist you further, reflection questions are included throughout to help you clarify your preferences.
