Interpersonal Psychotherapy of Depression
Reflecting the new and exciting trends in psychotherapy as well as responsive to the current emphasis on efficient, substantial therapeutic results, this book presents a model of interpersonal, short_term psychotherapy for clinically depressed patients.

The Origins of Family Psychotherapy

Rabbis of our Time
The term ‘rabbi’ predominantly denotes Jewish men qualified to interpret the Torah and apply halacha, or those entrusted with the religious leadership of a Jewish community. However, the role of the rabbi has been understood differently across the Jewish world. While in Israel they control legally powerful rabbinical courts and major religious political parties, in the Jewish communities of the Diaspora this role is often limited by legal regulations of individual countries. However, the significance of past and present rabbis and their religious and political influence endures across the world. Rabbis of Our Time provides a comprehensive overview of the most influential rabbinical autho...

Developing and Sustaining Play Therapy Clinics
Play therapy training clinics are an important aspect of the clinical mental health field. An approved play therapy training center should offer direct play therapy services to children and families and provide quality education, training, research, and supervision. While each setting may have a set of contractual standards for supervision, few offer advice for setting up such approved centers and training clinics. Developing and Sustaining Play Therapy Clinics is a collection of innovative research on policies and procedures for university-based play therapy clinical settings to help guide practitioners in multiple areas including emergency and crisis situations, paperwork requirements, and mandated reporting requirements. While highlighting topics including adventure therapy, clinic branding, and playroom design, this book is ideally designed for clinic directors, psychologists, psychiatrists, play therapy practitioners, academics, administrative supervisors, and researchers.
Case Formulation in Contemporary Psychotherapy
Case Formulation in Contemporary Psychotherapy presents a new approach to case conceptualization and case formulation, making meaning from each clinical case and using every piece of data available. Robert Mendelsohn explains his core basic principles for case formulation, allowing the clinician to assess a case quickly and accurately. This book includes a discussion of the contributions of transference and countertransference, inducement and enactment, as well as the use of paradigmatic techniques, humor, and language. The processes presented, alongside vignettes illustrating their use, will allow clinicians to decode the meaning of all clinical interaction and to communicate that meaning in a helpful way to students and patients. Providing a new way to access a full range of conscious and preconscious clinical information, Case Formulation in Contemporary Psychotherapy will be essential reading for mental health professionals including psychotherapists and psychodynamic and psychoanalytic clinicians in practice and in training. It will also be of great interest to students of psychotherapy and psychoanalysis.
