Reviews

"*4 stars* ""The book describes different exercises to help clinicians of any theoretical orientation or clinical role... [A] book to help mental health professionals and trainees achieve competency through methods of deliberate practice (DP)... The book is easy to read, and the exercises are excellent. [A]n excellent look at the basic skills that therapists should possess, no matter what their philosophical tradition is. The exercises underlying these skills are very practical."" --©Doody’s Review Service, 2024, Gary B Kaniuk, PsyD (Cermak Health Services)"
