While we know that psychotherapy works, there is hearty debate about what makes it work. In the past, rival arguments have maintained that psychotherapy proves effective because of the treatment approach, patient contributions, or the therapeutic relationship. Psychotherapy Skills and Methods That Work argues that clinical skills and methods also play a crucial role and that what therapists do has major consequences for improving practice. Psychotherapy Skills and Methods That Work is the result of a multiyear, interorganizational Task Force commissioned to identify, compile, and disseminate the research evidence and clinical practices on psychotherapist skills and methods used across theoretical orientations. Edited by renowned scholars Clara E. Hill and John C. Norcross, this book provides original research reviews on the effectiveness of 27 specific psychotherapy skills and methods, including affirmation, self-disclosure, role induction, between-session homework, empathic reflections, mindfulness and acceptance, emotion regulation, and cognitive restructuring. Each chapter on a therapy skill or method features clinical examples, diversity considerations, training implications, and bulleted therapeutic practices, while the final chapter summarizes the research evidence for the effectiveness of these skills/methods and emphasizes implications for clinical training and practice. Forcefully demonstrating what therapists do to help clients change and live more effective lives, Psychotherapy Skills and Methods That Work will serve as a go-to guide for psychotherapy practitioners of all persuasions and professions, as well as graduate students and psychotherapy researchers.

A practical guide to effective discipline! <ul>
<li> Focuses on real kids with real problems through chapters such as "The Explosively Violent Kid." </li> <li> Includes checklists and self-evaluations to allow the teacher to evaluate his or her classroom disciplinary strategies from a relational disciplinary perspective. </li> <li> Differentiates between explosive kids and consistently aggressive kids, offering specific tactics for each group. </li>
</ul>
@SUMMARY= Relational Discipline: Strategies for In-Your-Face Kids is a practical guide to effective discipline for the classroom. The focus on discipline involves moving beyond behavioral strategies and focusing on the relationship between the pupil and the teacher. Dr. Bender argues that this relationship is the missing, yet most important, component in today's disciplinary approaches. Tactics are tailored for children with a range of behavioral issues, including kids with attention problems, clingy kids, and defiant/consistently aggressive kids. The practical focus of these chapters, and the emphasis on strategies that can be used in the "real world" of today's classrooms, effectively separate this disciplinary book from the others.Tactics such as responsibility strategies, peer confrontation, and self-monitoring are presented and discussed developmentally, with specific recommendations for kids at certain ages. The final chapter offers a series of strategies to focus on classroom climate to help the teacher pull these tactics together and reorient the classroom into a relational discipline classroom. 
 Dr. Bender received his Ph.D. in special education at the University of North Carolina in 1983. Since that time, he has taught at Bluefield State College in West Virginia, Rutgers University in New Jersey. Currently he is an associate professor at the University of Georgia in the Department of Special Education. Dr. Bender's research includes over 50 published research articles and nine books on a wide range of topics in psychology and education. Most of his published research is in the area of social, emotional, and behavioral development of individuals with learning disabilities, behavioral disorders, and/or attention deficit hyperactivity disorders.
