psychotherapy being practiced today. Eminent authorities present influential treatments that have been developed relatively recently, such as the brief, cognitive, family, relational, and integrative psychotherapies, as well as more traditional treatments, such as psychoanalytic, existential humanistic, and person-centered psychotherapies; Gestalt, group, and behavior therapy; and Transactional Analysis.

Detailed case material is included throughout.
