Creative Therapy in Challenging Situations introduces readers to the innovative approaches that therapists sometimes take when standardised, paint-by-numbers routines don’t work. Each chapter presents the story of one or more difficult psychotherapy situations followed by the therapists’ descriptions of what they did and why, as well as the outcome that resulted. The authors and their stories span a wide variety of theoretical approaches and contexts. This collection of provocative, instructive vignettes from well-known practitioners often generates “You said what?!” reactions.
