The Present is a Gift
How we make sense of our worlds--the stories we tell ourselves and each other--does much to determine what we experience, our actions, and our destinies. Some stories are better than others because they are more enlivening and encouraging, helping people to get more of what they want. They carry wisdom and hope. They open people's hearts and touch their feelings. They speak to the person's truth or dream. They tap into our strengths and resources. They invigorate us, making us feel more alive and more deeply human. In this extraordinary new collection of essays and interviews, Michael Hoyt extends the vision of Some Stories Are Better than Others as he explores how narrative construction and "storying" can make therapy more effective and efficient. Combining a personal, down-to-earth style with an encyclopedic knowledge of the professional literature, he draws from extensive clinical experience as well as humor, poetry, and candid revelation to illustrate the importance of language and worldviews that inspire and empower. The Present is a Gift will provide a rich reading experience for anyone interested in good stories and strength-based time-sensitive therapy.

Topics covered include different styles of constructive therapy, the externalization and deconstruction of problems, narrative work with ADHD-diagnosed children, a solution-focused approach for dealing with cases of domestic violence, EMDR and the MRI interactional approach, actualizing the empty self in psychotherapy, emotional and spiritual healing, and more. Illustrative case examples are featured throughout.
The Handbook of Constructive Therapies
A guide to the use of treatment approaches known as constructive therapies The leading teachers and practitioners in this powerful handbook represent a variety of schools of therapeutic treatments that all share an optimistic view of people as resourceful individuals who construct their own realities. Emphasizing a collaborative approach, the therapies focus on the strengths and resources of the clients and look to where people want to go rather than where they have been. Hoyt should be commended for bringing together in one volume diverse voices that bring alive the exciting possibilities that mark and define this new era of psychotherapy. ?Steven Freidman, author of Time-Effective Psychotherapy
Some Stories are Better than Others
There are stories that we use to explain what happened to us twenty years ago or last wee, those we use to explain why the world works the way it does, and those that we sue to "fix" the world when it doesn't work the way other stories said it should. And as the author points out in this collection of essays and interviews, some of these stories are better than others. This book is an investigation into which might be the better stories and how they can help clients reach their goals in therapy. This book contains fifteen essays and interviews written or co-written by Michael Hoyt. The collection represents Dr. Hoyt's recent thinking on helping clients with the brief, future-orientated therapeutic approaches.
