Functional analytic psychotherapy made simple : a practical guide to therapeutic relationships

Abstract

"As a clinician, you know that meaningful relationships are essential to your clients' happiness and well-being. In addition, fostering an empathic, compassionate client-therapist relationship can have a profound impact on treatment outcomes. With its roots in third-wave contextual behavioral science, functional analytic psychotherapy (FAP) focuses on the therapeutic relationship as a primary vehicle for client healing and transformation. This easy-to-use reference manual provides everything you need to implement this powerful approach in session." From back cover.
