Annotated Psychotherapy demonstrates how an experienced psychotherapist develops and carries out the right treatment plan through interactions with the patient or client. In these pages, clinicians will find an explanation of everything the therapist says to patients or clients: why they say it, what they intend it to do, how it fits in with the treatment plan for that person, and, importantly, what might have been said that would be better.

Each of the eight sessions are presented in the form of a transcript that shows how a seasoned clinician might conduct the session—what their internal judgments are and what reasoning or rationale they might have for the therapeutic interventions they choose. Discussion sections after each transcript and a glossary provide helpful explanatory material for the key ideas and concepts, making this book an enlightening resource for therapists working and training in psychotherapy, whether their background is psychology, social work, psychiatry, or counseling.

Reviews for Annotated Psychotherapy: A Session by Session Look at How a Therapist Thinks

Have you ever wished to observe the work of a therapist firsthand? This comprehensive guide provides a bird's eye view of therapy and the therapeutic assessment process. Annotated Psychotherapy is a handy reference and a complete package that offers not only therapy transcripts and therapist evaluative comments but also explanations of key therapy concepts and a glossary of terms. Reading it is almost like having a supervisor by your side as you develop your therapeutic skills. Ann Goelitz, PhD, LCSW, psychotherapist and author of From Trauma to Healing: A Social Worker's Guide to Working with Survivors, 2nd ed, and Shared Mass Trauma in Social Work: Implications and Strategies for Resilient Practice This book, with its unique format of annotated transcripts of therapy sessions, is a valuable addition to the library of resources available to psychotherapists of all disciplines and will be especially useful in training new therapists. Robert Rohrbaugh, MD, professor of psychiatry and associate dean of global health education at Yale School of Medicine Annotated Psychotherapy reveals the therapist's internal dialogue in reaction to patient's statements. The valuable lesson of the book is how the dialogue serves to guide the therapist to adjust the delivery of the psychotherapy. Annotated Psychotherapy joins Makover's Treatment Planning for Psychotherapists, and Basics of Psychotherapy to create an essential foundation for educating therapists. Diane Sholomskas, PhD, assistant clinical professor of psychiatry at the Yale School of Medicine and codirector of the Center for Treatment of Anxiety Disorders and Phobias
