Listening to Patients

"Richard G. Druss stresses a flexible and humane approach to psychotherapy. Using clinical anecdotes as a method of teaching, Druss presents some of his own early cases - failures as well as successes - and through these moving vignettes gives us fresh insights into both the therapeutic process and the healing relationship between therapist and patient. As he has to generations of supervisees, Druss describes the value and beauty of learning how to listen to patients." "Listening to Patients is written for psychiatry residents, medical students, and practitioners of clinical psychology, social work, nursing, and primary care medicine."--Jacket.
