Review:
Giorgio Nardone sets forth a liberating invitation to view every moment of a therapist's presence as an expression of influence. I applaud his recommendation for therapists to become more responsible and effective participants in the flow of therapeutic (that is, strategic) dialogue. The current state of psychotherapy needs this wake-up call!"--Bradford Keeney, PhD, Clinical Director, Center for Children and Families, Monroe, Louisiana, Professor"
Nardone and Salvini have written a ground-breaking and superb book which offers therapists a highly practical conversational framework for co- constructing change in the very first session with clients presenting with a wide range of serious and intractable difficulties. The brief therapy field has been in need of something fresh, innovative, and well-researched for some time and Nardone and Salvini have successfully provided that gift in their book The Strategic Dialogue. If you wish to read about a cutting-edge method for conducting effective brief therapy with even the most challenging clients, this book is for you! --Matthew D. Selekman, MSW, Co-Director, Partners for Collaborative Solutions and author of Pathways to Change: Brief Therapy with Difficult Adolescents"
Nardone offers the reader something precious and rare in the field of psychotherapy and personal change: explicit therapeutic goals that are carefully tailored to the dynamics of specific kinds of problems, and operationally-defined ways to reach those goals by reorienting the client's attention. --Steve Andreas, Trainer, Consultant and Developer in Neuro-Linguistic Programming"
Nardone and Salvini artfully describe essentials of brief psychotherapy in eminently practical terms. Their Strategic Dialogue has been proven in practice and research, and is applicable to a wide variety of clinical problems. The question is: will you utilize the strategic gems contained in this book intentionally, or will you discover in retrospect that you have used them because they are an elegant path to enduring change?
