Description
Lawrence H. Rockland's Supportive Therapy: A Psychodynamic Approach offers a practical guide to improving ego functions and adaptations in therapy, focusing on strengthening reality testing, clarifying thinking, and minimizing regression.
This clinically sophisticated yet immensely practical resource covers key topics such as transference and countertransference, resistance, working through, and the relationship between supportive therapy and psychopharmacology. With richly illustrated clinical material, Rockland provides valuable insights into the strategies and rationales of this practice.
