Synopsis

Depending on which study you read, between 20 and 57% of psychotherapy patients do not return after their initial session. Another 37 to 45% only attend therapy twice. A follow-up study on dropouts found that most clinicians had no idea why their patients had terminated, whereas their clients could define very specific "therapeutic errors." Clients who drop out early display poor treatment outcomes, over-utilize mental health services, and demoralize clinicians.It doesn't have to be that way. Well-researched strategies reduce dropout rates and increase positive treatment outcomes. How to Fail as a Therapist details the 50 most common errors therapists make, and how to avoid them. Therapists will learn practical, helpful steps for avoiding such common errors as not recognizing one's limitations, performing incomplete assessments, ignoring science, ruining the client relationship, setting improper boundaries, therapist burnout, and more.

From the Publisher

The Practical Therapist Series® -- books for practicing psychotherapists, written by distinguished professionals. Emphasizing clear, straightforward language, each book offers practitioners expert information and understanding of the theory and techniques of a specific approach to psychotherapy.

From the Author

"To make a long story short, what had started as an analysis of therapeutic failure had led to an increased awareness of the clinical practices which lead to higher rates of client retention, satisfaction and therapeutic success. Our book, "How to Fail as a Therapist" is a modest attempt to share these approaches with others - and by doing so create a glass which is neither half empty or half full - but one that is in the process of being filled."
