Understanding and Managing the Therapeutic Relationship

Understanding and Managing the Therapeutic Relationship is the first book to integrate the theoretical, practical, and emotional aspects of the clinical relationship between social worker and client. Through a combination of classical and contemporary theory, case examples, and empirically grounded knowledge from attachment and neuroscience disciplines, McKenzie has created a text that captures the emotional aspects of the therapeutic encounter in a way that is informative and accessible to both the beginning clinician and the experienced therapist.
