Review
“This is an invaluable resource for students and licensed clinicians alike. It is entertaining to read and very practical, yet extremely thorough — which makes it a must have for any clinician!”
“I would definitely recommend this text to a colleague, in particular the last chapter about case conceptualization. . . . The book is well written, thoroughly addresses the theories included, and does a wonderful job explaining case conceptualization.”
