"In keeping with the authors' clear preference forthe on-going monitoring of client work, is the belief that on-goingmonitoring of the supervisory dyad mirrors and enhances thesupervisee's learning, and for that reason alone I wouldrecommend this book to both the practising therapist and those intraining." (Counselling & PsychotherapyResearch, 2 December 2014)Green and Latchford are to be congratulated on writing a landmarkbook on their unique evidence-based approach to psychotherapy. In afield increasingly dominated by protocol-driven practice, theyoffer their client-directed, outcome-informed approach as a genuinealternative. This approach represents a marriage of scientificrigour with clinical artistry. All therapists - both novicesand experts - should read this book. --Alan Carr, Director of ClinicalPsychology, University College Dublin This is about evidence-based practice that you must and willwant to read. Green and Latchford provide welcome relief from themindless protocols and treatment guidelines that dominate so muchof modern professional discourse and practice. In the process, theyoffer practitioners, researchers, educators, and policy makers aresearch-based alternative to improving the quality and outcome ofbehavioral health practice. --Scott Miller, Director, InternationalCentre for Clinical Excellence and Cummings Professor of BehavioralHealth, Arizona State University
