This book, which wisely includes a C.D. is great because you can give your client a piece of paper they can really use concerning the chosen treatment and hopeful outcome that was just covered in the session. It is concise and very well written.

In 30 years of psychotherapy practice,I have used handouts from this book more than any other source. Many clients like these handouts because they are short and give an overview of the topic.They are not in depth guides,however.This is one of the few books worth several times its cost.
