Like other authors in the Core Competencies series, Dr. Cory Newman presents the essential knowledge, skills, and attitudinal components of each competency, with an emphasis on application in clinical practice. He includes extended case material and session transcripts, and teaches readers necessary competencies such as making good use of session time, maximizing client learning and retention, making adjustments in protocol to maintain optimal collaboration with the client, and crafting therapy homework assignments. The overarching goal of the book, as with others in the series, is to teach readers to think and make decisions as a cognitive-behavioral therapist"-- Provided by publisher.
