About this product
Product Information
This classic work provides a richly textured overview of the "whys" and "hows" of brief therapy. The authors identify the central features of effective, time-limited interventions for individuals, couples, families, and groups. Taking a developmental approach to treatment, they explain how brief therapy can help at different times in a patient's life, as changes and transitions bring on new stresses and challenges. A practical framework is provided for selecting and screening patients, rapidly finding a focus for clinical work, and making optimal use of available time. Case examples and extensive transcripts are included to illustrate the use of strategies and techniques drawn from many different psychotherapy perspectives. Throughout, the focus is on creative and efficient ways to help patients build on existing strengths and make desired changes in their interactions with others.

Reviews
"This book has dated well....this 1988 work still allows us a pragmatic view, a method of delivering brief, and certainly directive therapies in many settings, and Milton Erickson's tomato plant-style of delivering metaphor is still valuable in maintaining the therapist's freedom."--Metapsychology "Theory and Practice of Brief Therapyshould become basic reading for all therapists, in training or continuing their education, who want to learn more about how to get the job done efficiently." --Psychotherapy, "This book has dated well....this 1988 work still allows us a pragmatic view, a method of delivering brief, and certainly directive therapies in many settings, and Milton Erickson's tomato plant-style of delivering metaphor is still valuable in maintaining the therapist's freedom."--Metapsychology "Theory and Practice of Brief Therapy should become basic reading for all therapists, in training or continuing their education, who want to learn more about how to get the job done efficiently." --Psychotherapy, "Basic reading for all therapists, in training or continuing their education, who want to learn more about how to get the job done efficiently."--Psychotherapy, "This volume has set the standard for works on brief psychotherapy. It offers a well-conceived combination of thoughtful consideration and empirically based evidence. Budman and Gurman capture the essential qualities that are common to many forms of brief therapy, while discussing applications to a variety of specific problems and populations. Accessibly written, this is an ideal resource and text for graduate-level students."--Thomas H. Peake, PhD, ABPP, School of Psychology, Florida Institute of Psychology "This book is an excellent antidote to seat-of-the-pants brief therapy as it is commonly practiced today, and it is a must in the process of retraining....Budman and Gurman have given us not only the theory and rationale that will make one a believer in brief therapy, but also the techniques that will make one a good brief therapist."--Nicholas A. Cummings, PhD "Highly recommended! Will likely become the standard in the field."--Gerald L. Klerman, MD, Basic reading for all therapists, in training or continuing their education, who want to learn more about how to get the job done efficiently.
