Description
In this book, Windy Dryden takes long-standing research on SSI therapy and transfers it to the field of CBT in a timely and conceptual application.
This thoroughly updated new edition offers brand new chapters on single-session thinking. The book questions the common practice of predicating therapist training on the notion that therapy is an ongoing process. Based on his extensive work demonstrating the benefits of single-session CBT to public and professional audiences, Dryden has developed a single-session approach for work in the therapy and coaching fields. Comprising 30 key points, and divided into two parts - Theory and Practice - it concisely covers the key features of SSI-CBT.
This book offers essential guidance for students and practitioners experienced in CBT, as well as practitioners from other theoretical orientations who require an accessible guide to the distinctive theoretical and practical features of this exciting new approach.
