Edited by John C. Norcross, PhD, Professor of Psychology, University of Scranton.
"An intriguing issue that has fascinated therapy researchers and
practicing clinicians alike has been the question of how therapy
works. Acknowledging the findings that therapy techniques do indeed
contribute to the change process, this empirically based volume
convincingly documents the very important role that the therapy
relationships play as well. It is a timely and comprehensive
contribution that is relevant for both clinicians and
researchers."--Marvin R.
Goldfried, Ph.D., President, Society of Clinical Psychology (APA
Division 12) and Distinguished Professor, Department of Psychology,
Stony Brook University
"This excellent resource is a treasure! Norcross' second edition of
Psychotherapy Relationships That Work is the gold standard in
providing current evidence on how the psychotherapist
client/patient relationship promotes change. Educators, clinical
researchers and practitioners will be informed, inspired and moved
by an immersion into the evidenced based understanding of the
change process."--Melba Vasquez, Ph.D., ABPP, Independent Practice,
Austin,
Texas and APA President, 2011
"John Norcross and his contributors have created a stunningly
valuable resource for researchers and clinicians alike. This
landmark second edition transcends theoretical orientation, client
population, treatment format, and clinical severity. Clinicians in
particular will find the 'therapeutic practices' section of each
chapter to be thought-provoking and immediately applicable. Truly,
evidence-based responsiveness works."--Carol D. Goodheart, Ed.D.,
Past
President, American Psychological Association
"This thoroughly revised book directs us to what relationships work
in psychotherapy and to effective ways of tailoring the
relationship to the unique needs of individual clients. Dr.
Norcross and contributors have compiled a most useful resource for
practitioners and students."--Gerald Corey, Ed.D., ABPP, Professor
Emeritus of Human Services and Counseling, California State
University, Fullerton
"The organization and quality of presentation are more illuminating
and more uniform
than what we often find in edited volumes... The quality of the
data has improved dramatically since publication of the first
edition in 2002, and researchers in several areas have refined
measurement instruments (or developed new ones) and improved
research designs." -- Brian H. Stagner, PsycCRITIQUES
