Reviews
"Gurman and Messer have achieved a small miracle inEssential Psychotherapies: a comprehensive and intellectually rigorous edited volume that is readable to the point of fascination. The revised edition, with its inclusion of postmodern and marital approaches and its sensitivity to current scientific, cultural, political, ethical, and clinical realities, is the best source I know of for an overview of the sprawling, quixotic project of psychotherapy as it has emerged over the last century. Readers will be challenged to transcend their personal biases--and those of their teachers--as they appreciate each thoughtful chapter by cutting-edge scholar-clinicians."--Nancy McWilliams, PhD, Rutgers--The State University of New Jersey "In this revised edition, Gurman and Messer have successfully navigated into the waters of postmodernity without sacrificing the traditions that have guided psychotherapy for over a century. Written with a high level of sophistication yet following a consistent format, the chapters will be equally useful to experienced therapists and researchers and to students just entering the field. Authors blend theory, practice, and research, honoring philosophical origins as well as empiricism. Of particular note, the inclusion of case illustrations that are not 'star' cases provides useful insights into how therapists strive to understand and treat their clients within each modality, and demonstrates the importance of case conceptualization and theoretical coherence."--Bruce E. Wampold, PhD, ABPP, Department of Counseling Psychology, University of Wisconsin-Madison "This second edition ofEssential Psychotherapiesbuilds on a standard of excellence established in the first edition. Providing a fundamental overview of core approaches to treating individual and relational disorders, the volume brings order and reason to the literally hundreds of specific techniques espoused in the literature. Like its predecessor, the second edition takes a scholarly approach to both theory and practice, insightfully integrating clinical wisdom with empirical findings. For novice clinicians seeking a conceptual foothold, as well as experienced therapists eager to expand their skill in integrating interventions from diverse theoretical perspectives, this is an indispensable resource."--Douglas K. Snyder, PhD, Department of Psychology, Texas A&M University "Increasingly, practicing clinicians find it necessary to integrate ideas from different theoretical approaches. This second edition of a widely respected work is truly 'essential' for clinicians who value the contributions from psychodynamic, existential, cognitive-behavioral, experiential, and postmodern theory. Each chapter is written in a clear and useful style, with many insightful and practical ideas addressing the complex realities of clinical practice. This volume will be especially valuable for graduate students interested in the scope of clinical theory and practice, as well as experienced clinicians who recognize the limitations of taking only one approach. Gurman and Messer have once again given us an excellent volume with wide-ranging vision."--Robert L. Leahy, PhD, President, International Association for Cognitive Psychotherapy; Director, American Institute for Cognitive Therapy "Essential Psychotherapiesis a valuable core text for our psychiatric nursing graduate students. The book's comprehensive description of major theory-based approaches to psychotherapy provides a basis for evidence-based practice. The integration of case study examples, therapeutic strategies, and ethical implications is unique, and careful editing makes the text highly readable."--Elizabeth Arnold, PhD, APRN/PMH, University of Maryland School of Nursing "I selectedEssential Psychotherapiesas the primary text for my graduate course on theories of psychotherapy because of the depth, accuracy, detail, and consistenc, "Inviting reading for students receiving their initial exposure to the diverse ways that theoreticians view the human condition and healing practices....I found myself enjoying the succinct overviews that were presented, suggesting to me that the book will be helpful to practitioners and academics....I would want to expose students to all of the chapters in this book because they represent stimulating reading and clarity in conceptualizing patient health and disturbance and promising ways of treating others...the best feature of this book is the outstanding writing. The amount of jargon is kept to a minimum and the clarity of communication is at a maximum. Every chapter blends theory, research and practice, attention to philosophical assumptions, epistemology, and even empirical methods. Every chapter is persuasive and invites integration of the rich variety of views about ways of being with people. It is a book for people who want to be exposed to a variety of ideas about psychological healing practice."--Psychotherapy Research, "Gurman and Messer have achieved a small miracle inEssential Psychotherapies: a comprehensive and intellectually rigorous edited volume that is readable to the point of fascination.
