The Therapeutic Relationship in Behavioural Psychotherapy

Behavioural psychotherapy, although focused on objective, goal-directed techniques, increasingly recognizes the importance of the therapeutic relationship, and the interpersonal context of psychotherapy.

This book presents a powerful integration of theory, clinical practice and research.

The authors develop a model of the therapeutic relationship which is tailored to behavioural psychotherapy, but the information and ideas gathered here have much wider applications.

The book describes real-life problems and solutions in managing the therapeutic relationship and motivating clients, which are often the major concerns of psychotherapists in practice
