Product reviews for Therapy with Tough Clients

Gafner describes how he treated two patients, each one suffering from a complex diagnosis. It is a privilege to walk in the metaphorical footsteps of the author as he unravels the difficult emotional and subconscious layers of the various symptoms.

One follows the master practitioner as he advances his therapy. He uses tales which resonate with the client's subconscious. He also emphasizes patience as a vital quality for the therapist to employ when progress seems slow. Ego-strengthening, Gafner believes, is a virtually vital element in all treatment.

The book is interesting and useful.
