Reviews

""This book is an important contribution to the theory and practice of psychotherapy, presenting a well-developed model that highlights the essential role of self-worth. Drawing from an extensive bibliography, the authors craft a therapeutic approach that is both practical and transformative. This work is an important resource for psychotherapists, counselors, and anyone dedicated to fostering self-realization and meaningful change in their clients."" Pamela Seator, MD, psychiatrist and psychoanalyst in private practice ""The authors have written a gem of a book that should be required reading for psychology and counseling students. This book offers a rich and expansive view of the concept of self-worth. The authors masterfully introduce the concept of birthright self-worth and its importance as a cornerstone of mental health."" Larry Ro-Trock, PhD, psychologist and marriage and family therapist ""This is the most inspiring clinical book I have read in years. Daigneault and Brown have assembled the framework of worth-conscious theory with clarity and conciseness. The clinical examples are inspiring and helpful. I felt genuinely excited and filled with new ways of thinking, and I have already started to use those ideas with my clients. This is a much needed and welcome guidebook that all psychotherapists will want to read and refer to!"" Gaye E. Henderson, MS, licensed professional counselor ""Daigneault and Brown have made a significant contribution to therapy practice with their discussion of self-worth. Their book includes invaluable insights into how issues of self-worth manifest in therapy and how to structure the work to pay it the fundamental attention it deserves."" Claude Brunell, PsyD, clinical psychologist ""Daigneault and Brown present strategies and techniques to help clients live fuller, more authentic lives. The authors' innovative therapeutic approach reflects deep thought, careful observation, and thorough research."" Martha Childers, EdS, licensed clinical professional counselor
