Time-Limited Psychotherapy by James Mann Md

Waiting lists in psychiatric clinics and increasing numbers of patients in long-term psychotherapy have highlighted the need for shorter methods of treatment. Existing forms of short-term psychotherapy tend to be vague and uncertain, lacking as they do a clearly formulated rationale and methodology.
An important and stimulating contribution to the rapidly growing literature on brief psychotherapyIt deserves a wide readership among all mental health professionals and should encourage spirited discussion and clinical research. * Social Casework *
The detailed examples and the clear, concise, well-organized exposition of theory and method should make this book especially appealing to therapists in psychoanalytic training. Its chief value in this context is its convincing demonstration that psychoanalytic concepts are not incompatible with brief, time-limited therapy. * American Journal of Psychiatry *
James Mann, M.D., is Professor of Psychiatry at Boston University School of Medicine and former Dean of the Boston Psychoanalytic Institute.
