This edition offers research on the foundations, techniques, and efficacy of psychodynamic psychotherapy, while still providing the information on assessment, indications, formulations, therapist interventions, goals of therapy, and mechanisms of therapeutic action that all mental health professionals require in order to provide care.

This updated, second edition also features ways to employ CBT to reduce suicide risk and tips on integrating therapies related to CBT—including dialectical behavior therapy, mindfulness-based cognitive therapy, and well-being therapy.
