Therapeutic Interviewing

Therapeutic Interviewing is an introductory counselling text focussing both on the microskills of therapy so important for beginning counsellors, and on the unique challenges a counselor faces based on the context of setting and client. 

This text, intended for beginning students in counselling and psychotherapy, offers the foundational strategies, skills, and tools of therapeutic interviewing along with an understanding of the formats and settings in which they will be working.  Reiter provides novice therapists with a basic understanding of interviewing and explores with them how they can develop the skills to become a competent therapist.
