What exactly is psychotherapy? And how can you choose which method is best for you? This title offers a comprehensive guide to some of the main aspects of psychotherapy including psychoanalysis, behavioural and cognitive techniques, and individual and group therapies, as well as exploring the lesser-known areas of complimentary and alternative treatments. Introducing Psychotherapy is a useful tool for anyone seeking help for themselves or others, and also provides important theory and practice for those considering training to be counsellors or therapists, and any other students or professionals concerned with welfare.
