A propos du livre

Revue de presse

With all the focus on specific techniques and specialized treatment approaches in professional discourse and practice, Dr. Dan Short s book comes as a welcome relief. In clear, engaging, and clinically useful terms, Dan focuses on the most important and empirically supported ingredient in successful psychotherapy: the relationship. I not only enjoyed reading and learning from Dan s personal and clinical experience, but also came away changed. --Scott D. Miller, PhD

This book is not just another book on the power of the therapeutic alliance to create change. It offers a whole new way to view this key relationship. The clinical stories are fascinating and lay out how the attuned stance of a skillful therapist can open a brave new world for clients no matter what their issues and problems --Sue Johnson, EdD

In an age dominated by artificial electronic connections, Dr. Dan Short highlights the importance of face-to-face connection. He provides numerous research-enhanced stories that clearly describe how relationships are at the core of health and healing. This moving, wise and thoughtful book provides the necessary ingredients for transforming lives. --Jon Carlson, PsyD, EdD, ABPP

Présentation de l'éditeur

Transformational Relationships is a vital resource for therapists who want state-of-the-art information on what works in psychotherapy. To navigate successfully the complex demands of individualized treatment, a therapist needs to be able to recognize the social matrix against which the course of treatment is plotted. To this end, Dr. Short shares the most essential aspects of the therapist-patient relationship and how this powerful bond produces lasting transformation. Inside this book, the reader will discover a unique and compelling narrative of science and clinical wisdom. The book s first section deciphers key dynamics of social complementarity, such as dominance and submission, reciprocity, affective attunement, verification, and attachment. In the second section, the reader will learn how certain relational beacons facilitate complex interpersonal maneuvering without becoming diverted from essential therapeutic outcomes. As the reader will discover, the process of transformation begins long before the experience ends.
