Summary:

"More and more, clinicians are recognizing the secret to therapeutic success lies in building a strong alliance. But how do you build that critical bond with a client who is reluctant, defensive or downright hostile? Watch renowned clinician Molyn Leszcz, MD lay the groundwork for a constructive alliance with Joel, a depressed man who unwillingly sought out therapy only as a means of appeasing his estranged wife. Leszcz demonstrates how using fundamental skills such as eliciting the client's perspective, exploring expectations in the here and now, and developing a shared understanding will draw out even the most adverse clients. Regardless of your theoretical orientation, mastering these therapeutic elements will establish the basis of successful treatment for your clients"-- Supplied by publisher
