Reviews[S]hould be read by all interested in psychotherapy education, program directors, psychotherapists, and clinicians who refer patients for psychotherapy., This book offers a well-articulated strategy for assessing and treating patients. The authors name their approach 'differential psychotherapeutics,' delineating the steps of learning, thinking, matching, and discussing, and then explicating 23 treatment options, such as in CBT, psychodynamic, interpersonal, family, and strength/values-based therapies. Next, experts from these various perspectives are invited to comment on how they would work with patients who have a wide range of psychopathologies. All clinicians--from those early in training to the most senior--who wish to deepen their comparative understanding should read this book. There is no other book that I know of which is as helpful in envisioning the future direction of the field of psychotherapy., Efforts to advance the science of psychiatric practice have for decades primarily focused on psychopharmacology. What about that same rigor for the psychotherapies? This book provides guidance about which psychotherapies to choose for which conditions, which patients, why, and even a primer on how. Through differential psychotherapeutics, every patient can be uniquely considered by an active, informed process of 'learning, thinking, matching, and discussing.' Dr. Cabaniss and Dr. Holoshitz show us that therapy is not just an art, it's a science., This single-source comprehensive volume describing the range of effective psychotherapies complements similar volumes dedicated to psychotropic drugs, and will greatly assist clinicians in making informed treatment selections. Different Patients, Different Therapies is an academic tour de force that will be an invaluable resource for mental health professionals and an essential contribution to the psychiatric canon.
