First published in 1988. The literature of psychotherapy is heavily weighted on the side of theory. There is an almost complete absence of tradecraft—what to do, when to do it, and how to do it. Tradecraft refers to the specific techniques used by experienced and skillful psychotherapists to create the therapeutic setting; to invite and maintain a therapeutic alliance; to enhance the patient's progress; and, finally, to allow the patient to integrate and complete the process of psychotherapy. A search of psychoanalytic literature reveals an enormous amount of theory and speculation, countertheory and counter-speculation, but little tradecraft. This book aims to fulfil that gap.
While we know that psychotherapy works, there is hearty debate about what makes it work. In the past, rival arguments have maintained that psychotherapy proves effective because of the treatment approach, patient contributions, or the therapeutic relationship. Psychotherapy Skills and Methods That Work argues that clinical skills and methods also play a crucial role and that what therapists do has major consequences for improving practice. Psychotherapy Skills and Methods That Work is the result of a multiyear, interorganizational Task Force commissioned to identify, compile, and disseminate the research evidence and clinical practices on psychotherapist skills and methods used across theoretical orientations. Edited by renowned scholars Clara E. Hill and John C. Norcross, this book provides original research reviews on the effectiveness of 27 specific psychotherapy skills and methods, including affirmation, self-disclosure, role induction, between-session homework, empathic reflections, mindfulness and acceptance, emotion regulation, and cognitive restructuring. Each chapter on a therapy skill or method features clinical examples, diversity considerations, training implications, and bulleted therapeutic practices, while the final chapter summarizes the research evidence for the effectiveness of these skills/methods and emphasizes implications for clinical training and practice. Forcefully demonstrating what therapists do to help clients change and live more effective lives, Psychotherapy Skills and Methods That Work will serve as a go-to guide for psychotherapy practitioners of all persuasions and professions, as well as graduate students and psychotherapy researchers.
The exhaustion of two large editions of this book within less than two years after its appearance attests the success of the humble efforts of the author in laying before the general practitioner an account of the principles of psychotherapy in such manner as to be of practical value as an adjunct to his therapeutic armamentarium. That psychotherapy has won for itself the highest recognition of its deserved place in therapeutics is no longer questioned by one who has kept his eyes open to the advances of modern medical science. I ts unqualified indorsement by the American Therapeutic Society; the establishment of the Henry Phipps Psychiatric Clinic at Johns Hopkins University under the efficient direction of A dolph Meyer, professor of nervous and mental diseases jn that institution, where the psychoanalytic method of psychotherapy will be intelligently employed; its support by men of such recognized ability as Freud, Jung, Bleuler, Breuer, Prince, Janet, Babinski, Putnam, Sidis, Dubois, Miinsterberg, Jones, Brill, Donley, Waterman, Taylor, and others shows the value of the various psychotherapeutic methods in their numerous applications in the treatment of disease. But some of these men of unquestioned professional ability, able and scholarly are disposed to limit its field to the department of neurology and psychiatry, when its greatest field of usefulness is in the general practice of medicine in all classes of medical and surgical practice. A few of these men are disposed to speak disparagingly of many of the simpler psychotherapeutic devices, assuming a holier than thou attitude toward the employment of psychotherapeutic procedures in a class of work not coming within the domain of their own specialty. This attitude is unworthy of scientific men, many of whom apparently write to conceal thought rather than to impart practical knowledge.
Tavistock Press was established as a co-operative venture between the Tavistock Institute and Routledge & Kegan Paul (RKP) in the 1950s to produce a series of major contributions across the social sciences. This volume is part of a 2001 reissue of a selection of those important works which have since gone out of print, or are difficult to locate. Published by Routledge, 112 volumes in total are being brought together under the name The International Behavioural and Social Sciences Library: Classics from the Tavistock Press. Reproduced here in facsimile, this volume was originally published in 1961 and is available individually. The collection is also available in a number of themed mini-sets of between 5 and 13 volumes, or as a complete collection.
The Scope of Brief Therapy Within the last two decades there has been a dramatic expansion in the uses of short-term treatment (Grayson, 1979, Small, 1979). Brief therapies have been and continue to be widely used with a number of different patient popu lations in a broad variety of service settings. They have been reported in use with children, adolescents, adults~ and the aged; in groups, families, and individual treatment; on college campuses, high schools, in community mental health centers, in child guidance clinics, in private psychiatric clinics, in hospitals as part of out-patient or in-patient therapy, in programs of preventive community mental health; with the rich, the middle class, and the poor (Barten, 1971, 1972; Caplan, 1961, 1964; Small, 1979; Wolberg, 1965). Further, short term methods of therapy range across all of the major and well-known theoretical orientations found in the broader field of psychotherapy. There are some unique theoretical contributions which can be found within this field as well.
