- Summary:
- The clinician-authors of "Self-Esteem: Paradoxes and Innovations in Clinical Theory and Practice"--Richard L. Bednar, M. Gawain Wells, and Scott R. Peterson--provide a unified framework for diagnosis and treatment of psychological disorders in which low self-esteem is the common denominator, and through which these and other questions may be addressed. /// The authors' therapeutic approach identifies habitual patterns of avoidance and teaches coping skills instead. /// "Self-Esteem: Paradoxes and Innovations in Clinical Theory and Practice" describes an innovative treatment model, including: theoretical and research foundations; a thorough overview of the model; guidance on using the model in clinical settings; case histories and dialogues from actual therapy sessions; discussions of developmental considerations in enhancing coping responses; aspects of the therapeutic relationship; and the role of family relations in the development of self-esteem.
