    Les fondamentaux de la psychothérapie est un ouvrage unique qui décrit les principes fondamentaux, les bases, les idées et les pratiques communes à toutes les psychothérapies actuellement utilisées. Chaque chapitre, illustré par des exemples cliniques et des sessions commentées, traite un thème fondamental et l’examine en détail : • Qu’est-ce que la psychothérapie ? • Qu’est-ce que la relation psychothérapeutique ? • Qu’est-ce qu’une évaluation initiale ? • Qu’est-ce qu’un plan de traitement ? Cet ouvrage souligne également l’importance de l’alliance thérapeutique et de la collaboration entre le thérapeute et le patient. Guide résolument pratique, il propose une approche éclectique et pragmatique qui cherche l’efficacité et vise à obtenir des changements réels dans l’état du patient, en détaillant les compétences nécessaires à la pratique de la psychothérapie quelle que soit l’école théorique (cognitive, comportementale, existentielle, psychodynamique, psychanalytique, etc.). Il permet au praticien de mettre en application ces compétences transversales et d’obtenir des résultats positifs dans le traitement des défis cliniques d’aujourd’hui. Les thérapeutes débutants comme les cliniciens expérimentés trouveront dans Les fondamentaux de la psychothérapie des ressources pour faire évoluer leur pratique.
