The Therapeutic Relationship in the Cognitive Behavioral Psychotherapies by Paul Gilbert

The therapeutic relationship is a major contributor to therapeutic outcomes. This book will help psychotherapists to address their understanding and use of the therapeutic relationship in CBT.

"This book will be useful to all psychotherapists who want to deepen their knowledge and understanding, and especially those who are following cognitive-behavioural approaches" - Francine Brett, Therapy Today

"Revolutionary and Evolutionary." - APA Review of Books, PsycCRITIQUES, Contemporary Psychology

"The book will help cognitive behavior therapists to recast the therapeutic relationship in an information-processing context. It might help therapists to examine the therapeutic process from a holistic perspective and to incorporate historical and cultural contexts in understanding the role of the therapeutic relationship in healing and promoting behavior change. As the concluding authors urge, 'It is time for cognitive therapists to engage in self-reflection' to indentify substance differences and promote an integrative approach to the practise of psychotherapy." - Dr. Jean Lau Chin, Dean of California School of Professional Psychology, part of Alliant International University, USA

"...Gilbert and Leahy have assembled a scholarly and thoughtful collection of explorations into the complex, intriguing cognitive and interpersonal phenomenon that is the therapeutic relationship." - Richard Stott, Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapy

"Paul Gilbert and Robert Leahy do a wonderful task of drawing our attention back to the neglected area of therapeutic relationship and show us that we can benefit and enrich our understanding by a deeper analysis of the issues involved." - Richard Scott, The Journal of Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapy, Vol. 39, 2011
