A Clinician’s Guide to Enhancing Outcomes
About this book
Brief Therapy for Clients with Challenging or Unique Issues offers clinicians, interns, and students a unique look into the creative and effective application of foundational concepts and innovative clinical processes that lead to successful outcomes with even the most challenging clients. Chapters illustrate complex interventions such as those involving clients court ordered or coerced into therapy, first-generation immigrant families in the criminal justice system, families at risk of losing custody of their children, foster children in the child welfare system, clients of multigenerational poverty, and families requiring in-home family therapy, and more. Each of these includes moment-by-moment co-constructive processes that document effective intervention ideas and strategies.
Rich in neurolinguistics, innovative approaches, and the application of advanced solution-oriented strategies, Brief Therapy for Clients with Challenging or Unique Issues weaves together the stories of courageous clients and offers innovative tools that empower and motivate even the most reluctant clients to engage and identify solutions that fit for them.
