Reviews
In Becoming an Effective Psychotherapist , the author provides clear, understandable, introductory-level explanations of nine major systems of psychotherapy: psychodynamic, behavioral, existential, person-centered, Gestalt, cognitive, systemic, feminist and constructivist. Each chapter presents the basic foundation or essence of each system, covering the main theories and associated therapeutic practices...Overall, I found this to be a concise and well-written introduction to the major theories of psychotherapy. Students who read this book will have a solid grounding in the basics of these theories and will be well on their way to finding the therapeutic approaches that are a good fit for them as beginning practitioners.

Synopsis
This book helps therapists-in-training evaluate the different theories of psychotherapy and shows that there is no "right" theory -- rather, there are different therapeutic approaches that fit for each therapist and client. Through a thorough overview and reflection of the main theories of psychotherapy, this useful book will help graduate students in psychology find a theory that is compatible with their worldview and will encourage them to become more effective therapists by matching therapeutic approaches to themselves and their clients. By reading this book, students will be able to align their own values in their beginning practice to the major theories on which psychotherapy is based; they will be able to easily choose a model for practice maximizing their satisfaction, confidence, and effectiveness as a therapist. Author Derek Truscott skillfully presents the nine leading systems of psychotherapy, the underlying rationale and approach to treatment for each, and their seminal theorists. Each chapter showcases a specific theory's therapeutic goals, its assumptions about the therapist-client relationship, client tasks, and the related change processes. Chapters end with thought-provoking journal exercises, learning tasks, and case examples for the psychology student to use as an evaluation, as well as discussions of how each approach has evolved and is practiced today., Presents the nine leading systems of psychotherapy, the underlying rationale, approach to treatment, and the seminal theorists for each as well as methods for selecting an appropriate treatment method for any given client.
