Revue de presse

Through case studies and discussion, Huber and Backlund show how a brief series of 20-minute counseling sessions can lead to sometimes dramatic life changes. By getting the client to focus on exceptions, the times when things went well, the therapist causes the client to discover how to find solutions to specific problems. For example, the divorced father in danger of losing his job because he and his daughters fight about getting ready for school in the mornings discovers the value of planning the night before. In addition to university teaching, the authors work at a clinic specializing in short term, 20-minute therapy sessions with clients unable or unwilling to commit to longer sessions and who seek ``drop in'' therapy. This book will be useful to a variety of helping professionals, especially those not in private practice who struggle with large case loads. Intelligent lay-persons will find it offers useful self-help advice as well. Highly recommended for most libraries. --Library Journal
