Current Psychotherapies 11th Edition by Danny Wedding/Raymond J. Corsini
Quick Navigation

Overview

CURRENT PSYCHOTHERAPIES, 11th Edition, helps students learn, compare and apply all major systems of psychotherapy in a way that's meaningful to their classroom experience and their own practice. Used in top Counseling, Psychology and Social Work programs, the book features an outstanding group of contributors--each of whom is either an originator or a leading proponent of one of the systems. These distinguished figures include Albert Ellis, Carl Rogers, Aaron Beck, Martin Seligman, John Norcross, Larry Beutler and Irvin Yalom. Each contributor presents the basic principles of a system, including how it compares with other systems. A case example in every theory chapter guides students through the problem, evaluation, treatment and follow-up process.

  • All authors examine the evidence-based support for the theory they present, and share their ideas about the importance and limitations of evidence-based practice.
  • The book is well known for its pedagogy. Each chapter follows a consistent organization that allows students to read and study "horizontally" (from section to section) or "vertically" (comparing all chapter overviews, for example, before moving to all history sections). A reference chart at the front of the book helps student quickly locate information.
  • Each theory chapter includes an applications section that features a case example with a problem, evaluation, treatment and follow-up.
  • An extensive, detailed and up-to-date glossary provides students with a convenient reference guide to the topics and terminology discussed in the book.
  • CASE STUDIES IN PSYCHOTHERAPY, 7th Edition, by Wedding and Corsini uses cases to bring basic techniques and methods to life. These cases are available to be included in the MindTap course for CURRENT PSYCHOTHERAPIES.
