Publisher Description: The author, a senior clinical psychologist who has worked in a variety of mental health facilities in the U.S. and Israel for over half a century, presents in this volume of case studies of unconventional psychological treatment interventions, which include the unique use of a mobile chair, "phantom" consultant, co-therapists, clergymen, humor and a projective test, in dealing with challenging cases. The interventions and rationale of the treatment of the patients, that include both adults and children with a variety of pathologies and symptoms in different formats, are clearly presented. It is hoped that this volume will encourage greater open-mindedness, flexibility and creativity on the part of clinical psychology students, trainees, beginning and seasoned psychotherapists, and expand their armamentarium of psychological tools, techniques and interventions in their clinical work. --- "This book is full of unique and fresh approaches to psychotherapy. The clinical material serves as an effective introduction to the new therapeutic approaches the author outlines. A most useful and eye-opening book that will benefit both the novice and experienced psychotherapist." (Joseph Wohlgelernter, M.D, FRCPC; Psychiatrist, Mayenei Hayeshua Mental Health Center, Israel) |
