The Therapist's Notebook on Strengths and Solution-Based Therapies offers multiple pathways for those in helping relationships to employ strengths and solution-based (SSB) principles and practices as a vehicle for promoting positive change with individuals, couples, and families. The 100 exercises in this book are based on a series of core principles that are not only central to solution-based therapies; they have been demonstrated through research as essential to successful outcome. Readers will learn about processes and practices that are supported by research and are collaborative, competency-based, culturally sensitive, client-driven, outcome-informed, and change-oriented. The text is categorized into seven parts, each formatted similarly to ensure easy accessibility. Practitioners will find their therapy enhanced, with a greater ability to improve their clients' well-being, relationships, and social roles.

"Bertolino, Kiener and Patterson, out of the depth of their considerable combined experience, have written a must have resource to help clinicians eager for success to find tools in this book to achieve that success in a very effective, positive, and encouraging process. They demonstrate that being a clinician can be creative fun as well as a challenge. Their succinct summary of theory buttressed by over 100 practical carefully described techniques is a new special asset for clinicians."- Robert Sherman, EdD, professor emeritus, Queens College, New York "This book is a wonderful accompaniment to Bertolino et al.'s Therapist Notebook for Families, which was a good selling volume. This one is the more general strengths and solutions focused Notebook that probably should have come first, but will be a good addition at this point."- Terry S. Trepper, Ph.D.
