Users Guide to Therapy : What to Expect and How You Can Benefit

"[A] reassuring and informative therapy guidebook...comprehensive, contemporary and readable... I highly recommend it to therapists and patients alike." -- Betsy Horton, LICSW - MN Society of Clinical Social Work "Kaiser provides a wealth of easy-to-understand therapeutic information...provides clear direction for the client." -- Doug Greenlee - AAMFT MN Newsletter "If I'd read this book prior to training, my development as a therapist would have been greatly enhanced, having seen the process from the client's point of view." -- Gail Nagel LISW-CP, DPNAP - Newsletter for the Clinical Social Work Association "If you are thinking about change, this book will help you decide whether to try therapy, what to expect, and when to leave. Like Penn and Teller ripping the secrecy from magic, Kaiser reveals to ordinary people what goes on behind the closed door of therapy. You learn about core issues and relationships that can lessen your anxieties and enrich your life. This book is all about hope, and how to find it in oneself-with the help of a caring therapist." -- Pauline Boss, author of Loss, Trauma, and Resilience
