Critical Issues in Psychotherapy examines new and existing models in psychotherapy and presents them in an accessible manner to the practitioner in training through illustrative therapy cases and practitioner commentaries. There are many new models that have emerged in psychotherapy in recent years; however; they have not often been made accessible to front line practitioners.

Addresses the human condition in its entirety and discusses the pathways to flourishing in light of the everyday limitations that we all must face. The authors address what they call the "breathless optimism" of positive psychology in this unique and approachable volume filled with original research and case studies.

This volume encourages students to engage in critical thinking by exploring the main assumptions upon which behavioural science theories are based and offering some alternatives to these assumptions.
