Therapy with coerced and reluctant clients

This book examines the clinical dilemmas faced by therapists who work with involuntary clients. These individuals often come to therapy through the judicial system but also are problem employees or spouses persuaded to enter therapy by their mates. Under these circumstances, working together can be frustrating for both therapist and client. The author demonstrates how therapists can tailor their interventions to avoid impasses, build a firm alliance with clients, and help them develop more productive behaviors.
