by Richard Fisch; Karin Schlanger

From the jacket flap
Brief therapy has proven to be an effective form of treatment for a variety of common psychological problems including marital conflict, parenting issues, anxiety, moderate depression, and simple phobias. But can short-term therapy be a successful therapeutic technique for clinicians working with clients who present more challenging and complex problems?This hands-on guide by Richard Fisch and Karin Schlanger-pioneers in the field of brief therapy-offers behavioral health care professionals an important resource for applying the proven principles of brief therapy to a range of complex psychological problems that were once thought to be treatable only through long-term therapy or with the use of psychotropic medication. The practical techniques presented in this timely book are based on the authors' more than fifty years combined clinical experience in both private practice and at Palo Alto's acclaimed Mental Research Institute.In easy-to-understand language, Fisch and Schlanger offer the information necessary to sharpen the skills needed to learn a problem-solving, short-term approach to complex therapeutic issues.
