Doing Supportive Psychotherapy is a brief, spirited book, which functions as both instructional text and paean to psychotherapy. In vigorous, personal prose, the author leaves readers with the message that they are not alone as they venture into the overwhelmingly complex, perplexing, and yet totally wonderful endeavor of the "talking cure". The text is short and sweet, designed to teach essentials and include "just enough" to get clinicians started in supportive psychotherapy.
