"In 1991 Functional Analytic Psychotherapy (FAP) was among the first new approaches that proved that behavioral psychology could be brought more fully and effectively into psychotherapy. In this long awaited volume, leaders in FAP show how the model has developed and provide guidance for its clinical implementation. Alone and in combination with other treatments, FAP speaks to some of the deepest clinical issues there are, and can empower clinical work virtually regardless of the clinician's current approach. Highly recommended." -Steven C. Hayes, Ph.D., University of Nevada "Functional Analytic Psychotherapy offers the best opportunity for the development of genuinely integrative therapeutic practice the field has ever seen. This guidebook to FAP should help to open up new exciting vistas to therapists of all theoretical persuasions. It is one of the most important books on psychotherapy in decades." -Alan S. Gurman, Ph.D., University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health "This volume describes an approach to therapy that creatively highlights the use of the therapy interaction as a sample of the client's problematic interpersonal relationships. Using an integrative blending of learning principles with sound clinical interaction skills, Functional Analytic Psychotherapy helps clients to learn what does and what does not get them what they want and need. All this is richly illustrated with case materials and therapy transcripts, providing the clinician with clear guidelines on how to implement this approach to therapy." -Marvin R. Goldfried, Ph.D., Stony Brook University For more than two decades, Functional Analytic Psychotherapy has brought new meaning, depth and intensity to client-therapist relationships by focusing on the subtle ways clients' daily life problems occur in the therapy session. FAP's nuanced, curative power can help clients with issues as varied as depression, anxiety, intimacy difficulties, personality disorders, problems of the self, substance abuse and OCD to move beyond their symptoms and into their passion for living and loving. In A Guide to Functional Analytic Psychotherapy, originators Mavis Tsai and Robert Kohlenberg join with other FAP practitioners to present a conceptual framework and treatment innovations that take readers through the deep complexities and possibilities of the therapeutic bond. This book also underscores how attention to mindfulness and the self makes maximum clinical use of the uniqueness of every client and every therapist. Highlights of the Guide: The five core principles of therapeutic technique. Empirical underpinnings of FAP interventions. Case studies and transcripts of assessment procedures and therapy sessions. Examples of how to use FAP alone and in combination with other therapies. Illustrations of the course of FAP, from the initial session to the end of therapy. Therapist self-development and supervision issues. Inspiring clients to improve society: the practice of "green FAP." Appendix of questionnaires, feedback forms, and other essential FAP tools. As this transformative therapy continues to grow in influence, A Guide to Functional Analytic Psychotherapy will be a vital, practice-enhancing reference for clinicians and graduate students.

Psychotherapeuten zien zich gesteld voor een toenemende vraag naar kortere behandelingen van een bredere doelgroep, terwijl ze toch hun kwaliteit willen handhaven. Kortdurende groepspsychotherapie kan voor hen een antwoord zijn. Deze betrekkelijk nieuwe therapievorm biedt hun een prettige en energieke werkwijze die tegemoetkomt aan de huidige wens van veel cliënten om niet te lang in therapie te zijn en waarbij toch belangrijke resultaten kunnen worden bereikt.Kort en goed genoeg beschrijft deze nog jonge vorm van psychodynamische groepspsychotherapie, die effectieve elementen uit de groepspsychotherapie combineert met krachtige interventies uit McCullough's focale kortdurende individuele psychotherapie. Het boek behandelt de kernbegrippen 'focus' en 'limitering in tijd' alsmede de specifieke rol van de therapeut en geeft aanwijzingen over hoe therapeuten deze concepten doeltreffend kunnen hanteren. De schrijfster maakt duidelijk voor wie psychodynamische groepspsychotherapie effectief kan zijn en illustreert dit met vele praktijkvoorbeelden.Kort en goed genoeg geeft handvatten aan psychotherapeuten, inspireert hen en verruimt hun moge-lijkheden om met kortetermijngroepen te werken. De combinatie van theorie en praktijk stelt hen in staat zelf vorm te geven aan kortetermijngroepen in de eigen werksetting. Dit boek kan voorts een bron van informatie en inspiratie zijn voor wie als opleider of coach met groepen werkt. De gepresenteerde benadering is weten-schappelijk gefundeerd, gebaseerd op literatuuronderzoek en op de uitgebreide praktijkervaring van de auteur.

Summary   Following the demise of the so-called grand theories offered by luminaries like Sigmund Freud, B. F. Skinner, and Carl Rogers, the field of psychology largely gave up its early aspirations to paint a broad picture of the human condition, and now the discipline focuses primarily on empirical problems that have a relatively narrow scope. The consequence has been a proliferation of interesting findings with no real capacity to answer big questions or to generate a shared general understanding of the human condition. This book seeks to change the status quo and offers up a new unified theory of psychology that redefines the science and the profession and paints a new picture of human nature in the process.  _____________________________________________________________________________   Praise for A New Unified Theory of Psychology   The field of psychology is known for its paradoxical combination of sweeping scope and impressive micro-theories, on the one hand, and fragmentation and internecine squabbling, on the other. To this state of affairs, any serious effort to provide integration and unity within psychological knowledge and understanding is heartily welcomed. And Henriques' effort in this regard is not only serious, but one of the most cogent, scholarly, sophisticated, beautifully reasoned, clearly articulated, and accessibly written presentations of a unified theory in psychology that I have seen in my 50 years in the discipline.   Daniel B. Fishman, Author of The Case for Pragmatic Psychology, Professor, Rutgers University   As the field of psychology has grown, so have the challenges of fragmentation and of misunderstandings. This brave book represents a noble quest to provide a broad, values-based, and scientific framework which holds the power to organize our work and move us forward in strong, new ways.  Lawrence G. Calhoun, Author of Facilitating Post-Traumatic Growth,  Professor, University of North Carolina-Charlotte    In this very ambitious book, Henriques makes a strong case for why bold efforts are needed in the fragmented realm of psychological research and theory. Although different readers will likely make different judgments about how well Henriques has succeeded in his aims, it nevertheless is an act of intellectual daring that can perhaps inspire psychologists to look outside the narrow confines of a single laboratory paradigm and open their thinking to how to address the full range of human behavior and experience.  Paul L. Wachtel, Author of Therapeutic Communication,  Distinguished Professor, CUNY    Concise, erudite, and practical, this book is a manifesto that challenges psychology to move past fragmented domains of knowledge to a consilient framework, which will allow multi-disciplinary discourse and scientific advances. I suggest all scientists, psychotherapists, and scholars spend some time familiarizing themselves with the concepts and suggestions presented in this seminal volume by a leading scholar.  Jeffrey Magnavita, Author of Personality Guided Relational Psychotherapy, Founder of the Unified Psychotherapy Project
