Product reviews for Expectation

This practical book is about utilizing the power of expectation when working with clients. It's Rubin Battino's idea that creating an environment where the client expects to change is the foundation of doing effective very brief therapy. In his own private practice where he rarely sees clients more than once Or twice. Clients know in advance that this is the way he works, and so their expectation is that during each session they are going to get down to the hard stuff and, resolve their concerns, insofar as that is possible. This means working as if each session is the last one. So, this book is about all of the things that are designed to work in a single-session mode. He reviews a number of therapies including Erickson and Very Brief Therapy and Solution-Orientated Approaches.
