Hardback. Condition: Good. After more than 40 years of research, a substantial body of evidence has shown psychotherapy to be helpful in ameliorating psychological suffering. This is seldom questioned in professional circles, yet intense debate persists over how, when, and why therapy works. Those claiming to know the answers fall into two main camps, one arguing that some empirically supported treatments are therapeutic for specific problems, while others are less effective. The other camp posits that all approaches work equally well, as long as a strong therapist - client relationship and other common curative factors are present. Can both doctrines be correct? Second-Order Change in Psychotherapy: The Golden Thread That Unifies Effective Treatments asserts that they can, but what is needed is a unifying framework of change that underlies both positions. Drs. Fraser and Solovey identify that framework as second-order change in psychotherapy, or the golden thread that runs through the labyrinth of all effective therapies. change the problem but that create stability, while second-order change transforms the first-order solutions, resulting in a resolution of the problem. In this fascinating and rich book written for researchers, practical theorists, and policy makers, the authors show how second-order change is at the core of all effective treatments and demonstrate how to creatively employ specific, targeted approaches in an interpersonal context of shared respect, empathy, and compassion.…

Hardback. Condition: New. Mental health professionals have long debated what makes effective psychotherapy work. Is it a specific treatment modality, or a set of common factors such as a strong therapeutic relationship? In this book, J. Scott Fraser argues that both perspectives are correct. His transtheoretical, transdiagnostic framework identifies the process of change that underlies all effective treatments.   From this viewpoint, all client problems boil down to negative, recurring cycles of thought and behavior. The goal of psychotherapy is to disrupt or reverse those cycles. While successful treatment requires common factors linked with specific interventions, these components must be embedded in a therapeutic rationale that implies a direction for treatment. There are many possible amp ldquo correct amp rdquo rationales, so finding the one that best fits the client and therapist is the task of treatment planning. The book uses varied and compelling case examples, featuring different client problems and treatments, to illustrate a common process of change.   Both philosophically rich and highly practical, this book helps readers understand the complexity and promise of psychotherapy.…

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This book shows mental health providers how to envision crises as time-limited windows of opportunityas tipping points clients can seize to achieve new insights and move in positive directions in their lives."It is a positive, strength-based frame for seeing crisis as an opportunityThe author skillfully brings to the fore the idea of crisis shaped in culture; a brilliant and important way to excavate through crisis as a determinant for changeThis is an easy read, but profound in its content. This is a book to keep, as it will be malleable for practitioners as they develop skills and professional goals."Doody's ReviewsAligns with APA Divisions 38 and 50. Most mental health practitioners have been taught to do risk assessments and to reduce danger to their clients and those around them. However, many providers lack a thorough understanding of the cause and nature of mental health crises and struggle to safely and successfully provide crisis intervention. Instead of seeking to return clients in crisis to their previous baseline, providers can seize the opportunity presented by crises and tip them toward rapid resolution. In Part One of the book, J. Scott Fraser outlines his Process of Change model, a clear and concrete approach to understanding crises in their proper context; engaging with clients through their values, culture, and language; honoring their goals; and breaking cycles of crisis for good. In Part Two, he shows how different types of crisestrauma, suicidality, grief, intimate partner violence, and sexual assaultreflect similar vicious cycles. Real life case studies illustrate the Process of Change model in action, demonstrating how each of those cycles can be tipped toward resolution by embracing the contextual process of change perspective. Mental health providers learn to view crises as time-limited opportunities for client transformation. The Process of Change model encourages integrating clients cultural values and personal goals to disrupt destructive cycles. Real-life case studies in trauma, grief, and violence reveal paths to swift resolution. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
