This Reading Course collects some of the most popular In Consultation columns to address the common questions practitioners ask about ordinary clinical situations. In these brief articles, you'll learn how to deal with clients who resist your advice, won't do homework, and refuse to pay their bill. You'll also learn methods for enhancing recall of therapeutic insights, calming anxieties, and dealing with client anger. In addition, you'll get advice about introducing breathing and meditation techniques into your work and how to reduce the possibility of clients relapsing.
