Review
" the book is reader friendly, thorough, and interesting. Also, I would stress the adequate presentation of the theories and the approaches that are taken by different therapists using the same model an on-going case, and the presenting of an integrative approach with an accompanying video. Actually, I cannot find any weaknesses I am quite pleased with his writings." "I like the fact that one case is used throughout the text with the major theories. It demonstrates how some theories are more appropriate than others when dealing with a client's issues . Therefore, by this thorough presentation of the theories, the reader learns the theories, and gets a better understanding of how to choose theories and techniques and also what each theory might reveal about the client."
