Summary note
"This survey provides a solid road to key concepts of many therapeutic theories and techniques. A Broad Approach to Psychological Treatment comprises five parts. Part I is the foundations of psychotherapy. Part II reviews the theories and techniques of psychotherapy. Part III explores preparations for psychotherapy. Part IV describes specific therapeutic problems. Part V discusses evaluation and research in psychotherapy. The tremendous number of writings and the widely-varying points of view in this field are confusing. Dr. Watkins brings order into the area by organizing within an integrated outline the various systems, approaches, and techniques of psychotherapy. This work should be a valuable aid to more flexible and resourceful therapy"--Jacket. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2013 APA, all rights reserved).
