Synopsis

"Parts" (otherwise known as "ego states") work in therapy refers to helping clients integrate and reconcile different aspects of themselves (silly, serious, depressed, and so on). This book offers a grab bag of ego state interventions-simple, practical techniques for a range of client issues-that any therapist can incorporate.

About this title

Review:

[P]articularly useful for therapists who have patients with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) or find that their patients seem untreatable. Ego state work serves as another tool in the box a therapist can use in tough situations, and Shapiro does a great job in making ego state work compelling and understandable both for the layman and the professional.
