The Therapist's Ultimate Solution Book

Clients go to therapy wanting to change, but often they have no inherent knowledge of how to change. It's up to the therapist to build a well-stocked toolkit of life skills and psychoeducational strategies. This book answers the call, delivering an array of basic "solutions"-in the form of handouts, worksheets, exercises, quizzes, mini-lessons, and visualizations-to use with your clients and tailor to fit their needs. No matter your preferred course of therapy-whether it's CBT, DBT, EMDR, or EFT-having at your disposal a variety of easy-to-learn and easy-to-teach techniques for a host of common therapy issues goes a long way in keeping your clients on track, both during and in between sessions. Each chapter offers loads of skill-building tips and techniques to teach your clients, followed by practical take-aways for in-between sessions and additional recommended resources that they can turn to (websites, books, videos, and social media). Topic covered include: * stress Solutions * anxiety Solutions * depression Solutions * anger Solutions * conflict Solutions * regret Solutions * low Self-Esteem Solutions * life-Imbalance Solutions, and more.This book is one-stop shopping for a variety of simple, practical, educational techniques to help your clients make longstanding life changes.

The Therapist s Ultimate Solution Book is a resource that belongs on your desk, not your bookshelf. It addresses issues that most every client is actively dealing with in treatment, and Belmont s therapeutic tips and takeaways make it both accessible and directly applicable to clinical practice. As a national trainer on skills-based approaches, I will be referencing this work across the country and in my own clinics. --Mark Carlson, author of CBT for Chronic Pain and Psychological Well-Being"
