Summary "Whether you're a student or a seasoned practitioner, you'll find this book a valuable source of practical strategies, safe interventions, and creative solutions to common challenges faced by mental health professionals in their day-to-day practice. Christiane Brems offers a comprehensive yet efficient conceptual framework for working with tough clinical and counseling situations that can be applied by practitioners of all theoretical orientations. Although preplanning for every single type of challenging situation is impossible, practitioners are most successful when they have templates of behavior to draw from when the need arises.
This unique book provides exactly such important schemata to assist both novice and experienced practitioners in responding effectively and confidently."--Jacket.
