- Summary:
- A combination of social, political, and economic factors has led to the current surge of interest in brief psychotherapy. This book examines systematically the role of the therapeutic alliance in short-term psychotherapy and addresses the implications of the short-term framework for the alliance: How do the time limitations affect the relationship between therapist and client? How do therapist and client determine the focus of their work together? And how does the therapist deal with ruptures in the working alliance and with the pressure of termination issues?
